  1. For safety, I'd add OSB or ply under the tank(s). If the stand was made for tenners, I wouldn't be concerned, however I can just see someone accidentally bumping the tank and a corner flipping into the hole.
  2. Time will tell, I guess.
  3. "Same thing with folks still believing co2 + ferts is a no no in shrimp tanks." That's another discussion altogether. LOL
  4. Any idea how to tell the snow whites from SSSS+?
  5. I'm looking at getting some marina boxes myself. Do you use a bubbler or a pump? Can you get a close up of the berried shrimp?
  6. Rye, would you please post a pic of your breeding box?
  7. I'm not an aquascaper myself, but I love to see what people have done.
  8. TB is just a type of card from CRS, Mayphly. Same thing.
  9. Beren, have you checked out Han's Site? It's run by Han (H4N), a member here, and he has some nice plants to get you started in aquascaping if desired.
  10. I have a set of samples coming in from Triton for my cards to try. I'm interested in seeing how they respond to them.
  11. Lookin good! BTW I'm 5' 6" beat that! LOL
  12. Many people see wild neo colors and jump to the conclusion cross breeding happened.
  13. I've not seen fungus from fresh picked, but then again they were in transit 3 days before getting to me. I *did* learn NOT to leave fresh picked in a sandwich bag, or they will become moldy and unusable.
  14. The challenge is that microS and TDS don't really correlate well. For microS it depends on temperature and what materials are in the water to conduct. Some people just multiply mS x .7 to get TDS, but that doesn't work all the time depending on the materials in the powder. If you are offering samples for .50 ea, you could try it yourself since you have to open a container anyway.
  15. "It takes one second. As soon as a berried PRL gives birth, you have created PRL. :P" LMAO!!!!
  16. Awesome. First question answered. thank you. 2nd question?
  17. Also, I notice the gh+ is in microsiemans to 10L of water. What is the TDS to 5g of RO so I can compare with SS?
  18. I noticed with the shrimp rocks it said it can be used to add gh. Do you wait until the gh hits where you want and take them out, or do you keep them in and the gh is stable?
  19. I have to say, accidental or not, I really like what Monty did with these shrimp. Not everyone would have spent time on them, yet he saw a coloration he liked and decided to go for it. Selective breeding at it's best. Great job, Monty!
  20. Congrats Neil. You should have shrimplets soon!
