1 pointits great to see people actually updating there journals! tanks looking good dude, keen to see it progress more!1 point -
I know this journal is in dire need of updates. For now, I can't (or won't) say much. I have been shuffling things around a bit, the hex tank still has my shrimps in it, but they lost the croc. They gained a few plants for now, I've been moving plants back and forth between tanks ( @Disciple thanks again for the hairgrass, but that thing refuses to stay put! haha) I had misadventures with my ember tetras, I'm down to 6 from 16, I will not restock them. I'm open to other suggestions for tankmates for my cherries. Including input on my previous post ^^^. I guess I can share a pic or two... hahaha What's a coffin without bones? Or skulls?1 point

1 pointHey mate, all readings at normal but pH was a bit high at around 7.6. I have done a bunch of water changes and put a fresh dozen cherries in and they seem happy enough to berry so we'll see how it goes. One of the old stock next to newbies.1 point -
1 pointI'll just leave this here... It's due for an update, but it's not quite ready for one yet.1 point

1 pointJust bought an Eheim 150 watt heater. Will buy a cannisters filter when I get back from a holiday in April. The second stage of the tank will begin!! Been there, done that?1 point

1 pointI'm not sure if I'm looking at the right thing, but those brown flecks don't look like a bug. Do you only have RCS in the tank? No fish?1 point

1 point@Unagi42 I have gold vine in my tank and the shrimp graze on it. I agree with @ineke that it initially has slime all over it but it clears up pretty quickly. Water parameters will tell a story about what is happening in your tank.1 point -
1 pointHello @Unagi42 Did you test your water parameter at the time the adults were dying? Also what are your water parameters currently? It will help us give you a reason for the deaths.1 point -
1 pointIt looks like gold vine , I found it secreted or got covered in a white slime when first put into a tank but the slime is harmless to shrimp. Mine cleared up within a month - I had boiled and soaked it before putting it in the tank and had been assured it was shrimp safe. I never had any issues with the shrimp. - some seemed to graze on the slime. The vines are 3 years old now and still very good.1 point

1 pointI also trimmed the sunset hygro - Went from 5 stems to 10! All about 3/4 height of the water now. Looking much thicker on the right hand side!1 point

1 pointThat's my room as it stands today ! 11 tanks Disciple plus my big one in the lounge ?? . The room still looks the same only difference is the lighting and the addition of a reverse cycle air conditioner @larrymull I love the mixed bag the Taitibees give. I am disappointed that they are reverting to the pure lines but I'm hopeful that adding some fresh Tiger genes will fix that. On the other hand I love the TB patterns I'm getting

1 pointSo now to the room again . Tank 1 is now a CRS tank . I will work to improve the quality and grades of these guys Tank 2 is my new Pinto colony Tank 3 is my Taitibee Bluebolts Tank 4 is my pure TB line Tank 5 is my 2015 juvi tank of Taitibees with a couple of adults that I kept. There are some interesting babies in there still a bit small to photograph but I'm hopeful of some interesting shrimp in there

1 pointAnother year has passed and I haven't updated this thread in that time. I'm not sure why a lot of the pictures are missing but I think it has something to do with the forum upgrade so I will put a few new ones up today. lots has happened over the last 12 months with my Taitibees giving me some great shrimp. I have traded and given away a lot of them and kept the babies for this year's projects. A slight change in direction now.

1 pointRevolutionhope I left my shrimp for 7 weeks with someone coming once a week to top up the water, pop a bit of food in which I left in those plastic medication doses containers ( Webster packs) then I had frozen mulberry leaves that my daughter in law put in if the ones in the tank were eaten and I put snow and barley pellets in the tanks. I think they could have gone maybe 2 weeks before needing food and now if we go away for 2 weeks or less I don't even bother to get them checked I just leave the snow and mulberry leaves in the tanks- we travel a lot.1 point

1 pointThe tanks have just been trimmed and also because of the mirror backs it's a bit hard to get a front view without seeing the camera and me in the back ground. They aren't landscaped for looks just for breeding and seeing the shrimp. /1 point
