Cherry shrimp - Redness
Hi everyone. I have a question for people keeping cherry shrimps. What can you do to make them "redder"? My cherries are mostly pink/light red. Some are totally without colour (big ones).
My cherries are housed in a 2 feet tank, with 3 * 92mm fans. Temp right now is 24 degrees (probably due to the weather now). On warm days, can reach 26+. Feeding them 3 different types of algae/spirilina foods. I read somewhere that they could turn darker red if the water is harder. Does ceramic rings affect the water's hardness? Cause in my planted tank last time, the water was quite hard and PH was rather high. I never found the cause....Could it be the CRs? Any help/advice/pointers would be appreciated. |
