Hello everyone!

I live in french west indies (Guadeloupe), and i'm into shrimps.

I found this forum while searching for something about shrimps, and suscribed right away ?

I keep neocaridinas (sakuras, blue fire, rili carbon blue, super green jades, and want to get sakura black roses and probably chocolates),

as well as crystal reds, taiwan bee black, some black pintos, some blue bolts, a few black king kong, and yellow king kongs.

i always wanted babaulti shrimps, and i'm awaiting for some orders of babaulti brown, malaya and green to arrive  ?

I design electronic devices to automate some tasks in my shrimproom, but i sometimes lag behind my maintenance (hence why i want to make more and more automated stuff, have even more sensors, more automated incident reporting/ warnings, etc).

 

I also use 3D printing in my tanks (i designed and printed a modular aquarium filter for use with generic pumps, shrimps refugariums, some aquascaping elements, as well as many other parts outside of the tanks such as stands for my home-made lights, etc.).

My goals are to perfect myself as a shrimpkeeper, but i'm not trying to be a championship breeder. I want pretty shrimps, but won't pursue super specific morphes (although i'd LOVE to have black fishbones ).

Seeing that there seems to be many shrimp experts here, i hope i'm in a good place for that ?

I also wish i can be of some help, but i'm not of the caliber of the experts here. However i'd be glad to help with electronics or computer related shrimp problems (like how to cable things, use micro-controllers with probes to monitor stuff, relays to turn on/off devices, MOSFETS to precisely regulate the power to a DC device, 3D printing, 3D modeling, etc...)

      It has been a few weeks now and I have done a couple of large water changes. I tested the water parameters this morning, GH6 and KH2, TDS 140 and PH 7.5. Obviously the PH is off but there isn't anything in the tank that should cause the PH to rise to this figure so I will just run the tank for another month with 10% weekly water changes (probably just with RO water) and see where we are at that point. The RO water tests at PH6, and the KH and GH in the tank could come down as they are at the upper limits for Caridina shrimps! There are only about 10 very small snails in there at this point, but they seem to be doing well enough.

      I believe these to be very rare in Australia so you may even consider making it a longer term plan and produce your own by starting with the best CRS you can get as that is where the pure lines started! Depends how patient and interested in the project you are, but would save money as well? If I recall correctly it takes from 8 generations of selective breeding? They sell them at micro aquatic shop but do not ship to Western Australia, but that means they are available in Australia. https://microaquaticshop.com.au/products/pure-red-line-grade-ss-shrimp Good luck and just maybe smeone on here may point you in the right direction or be able to supply you with some.

      Hi Guys,  Does anyone know where to buy PRL shrimps in WA, not the CRS please. Thanks Regards

      Yes it’s super accurate to position where I want now and stay there- I am satisfied.  All the fish and shrimpers are doing excellent! Coming up on 4 years running!

      You must be pleased with that, it looks better and is much more robust and less likely to damage or leaks! The tank looks very natural now it has been running for a time. I see the ember tetras, how are the blue shrimp doing, I see a few? The cat and dog look very content and unimpressed, lol.
