Oh, my tank is a rojak tank, full of shrimps; tiger, green, orange, cherry , BDS n CRS. They all share the same parameters as CRS. Still looking for blue shrimp. Any idea to get them bros? PM me if you got 5 to let go.

I had my 1st batch of tiger shrimplets about 1.5 week ago, followed by the recent about 3 days old green shrimplets, estimated to be about 3mm. BDS will be due in a week time.

Planning to expand my keeping, house them separately according to their species.


One important point to take note is that:
You must acclimate your shrimps to adapt to your tank water parameters or else the shrimps that you bought would not be able to survive for the next few days. Do not over react if one or two of shrimps die from the batch during or after acclimate in a couple of days, most possibly they had already injured before you bought them.

Add some new colors into my tank...

I do have some cherries and blue by then too..now the female are carrying it..
Sure! Will be glad to pass u the greens....but so far..i haven seen any eggs yet..think i got to wait for some time.

Anyway bro, i dismantled the setup. I started another one...this time using a 1ft glass tank..and im trying to keep the temp down using a fan. I hope the moss can thrive this time. The scaping also looks better. The greens are still in the old tank though. Will only move them to the new tank once water has stabled down.

I also got 6 TS from NA today.

Wat the temp the fan is able to kept at?

On 24hrs? Haha actually the greens and TS can still survive at 28 to 30 degrees

yes they can, but to breed them, advised to keep the temp low. temperature is crucial in breeding, not so much on survival rate. =]
