Treatment for 112 liter tank. Actual water volume 100 liters. Dosage is one tablet of JBL Furanol plus for 25 liters of water. In severe cases dosing can be doubled. Sera bactopur direct has the same nifurpirinol active substance if you cannot get Furanol. I got a very clear instruction that you should never dose less than instructed because you can just create resistent bacterial strains. Before the medication I did a 25% water change. According to instructions you can do up to 50%. In my case I took some RO water to a one liter jug and put four tablets to dissolve. They dissolve very quickly. Then I pour the mixture evenly across the surface. You can also pour it where you have best waterflow. Now I wait for five days for the treatment to take effect. During this period only little feeding. I gave some food on day two that was dipped in dilluted furanol. From here on is how I plan to continue. I will update after treatment if there was any changes. On the sixt day a 50% water change. If there still would be symptoms I do a new treatment on the sevent day. During the water change on the sixt day I will clean filters to get rid most of the med residues. If you have activated carbon this can be used. The treatment will also kill beneficial bacteria so it would be good to dose some nitrification bacteria. Im going to dose Vin's Storm nitrification bacteria just because I have it. Carefull with feeding for next weeks.

Google 'Cherry Shrimp Racer Stripe'. It's a colour variant of cherries. May be what your shrimp are. I personally love racer stripe cherries of all colours. If you're worried, could you send us your parameters? Just to check. Looking good with the live plants! Is that anubias I see?

Second day and no casualties. None in the CBS or galaxy tank. I'm carefully optimistic that this cure might actually work. I keep you updated how things go.

I recently cam across this suspected carbon rili of sorts. I couldn't find much like it when I looked. Is this just a simple throw back? Or something less common? I kind of like the half black "tuxedo" look.

It seems the Salty Shrimp remineralisers have all gone out of stock in australia. I could get some from the US through ebay/amazon but the shipping charges are as expensive as the product! Finding an alternative also seems to be hard. I did come across this though and its what I'm thinking of going with for now: Shrimp mineral liquid GH+ kh 100ml - https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Shrimp-mineral-liquid-GH-kh-100ml-For-Neocaridina/224116042105?hash=item342e5b6979:g:FYsAAOSwOQ9fNKkA

Introduction. I got the spinach name as I have a rather large perennial spinach plant that I have used to raise tadpoles. Interests. Long-term guppy breeder and planted tank fan, recently discovered that I like shrimps. Context. I had a look at some of the local forums where I'm located but they don't seem to have as many shrimp conversations as I thought, so that's why I joined this one. Current hobby. Although I have a few guppies and plants that are available in my area, I think I could use the knowledge that others have through their endurance so I can optimise the limited number of tanks I am running to reach some basic shrimp goals that a shrimp novice might.

Hi there, I am a new member and have the common green orange and black lyertail I inherited. Only difference with the ones I noticed other pictures of is mine have a white or pink dorsal fin.

Wish you were down in Melbourne, lol, we don't have most of those variants as far as I know. I personally keep and breed Japan Blues, Yellow King Cobra, and my own strain of black-bars. Would love to get more types though, I just love endlers ?

Can you detail what steps you are taking for future reference, and for anyone watching that might have the same issues? Thanks.
