  1. Your snails look like baby ramshorns. Harmless.
  2. I see. Well, the nice thing about cherries is that they reproduce more rapidly than cards. :-)
  3. That's horrible when that happens. Sorry to hear that. I'm trying to remember, was it you that used to selectively breed BP- or am I mixing you up with someone else?
  4. Sometimes that's a sign of not enough oxygen.
  5. Was it clear or all blue? Occasionally cherries will throw both. :-) All blue is referred to as blue rili. (yeah, I know. Very confusing with the rili patterns meaning something different.)
  6. @bostoneric So with inert, do you think BW would stay in the 7+ range?
  7. @bostonericI usually don't use kh with neos anyway. LOL I read recently that someone who used BW found their ph dropped into the 6's. Do you find this also- even with inert substrate? Oh, is the liquid thick like shampoo, or thin like water?
  8. LOL I've had mystery snails eat the pellets whole.
  9. Great! The most exciting things about shrimping IMO are berries and babies. :-)
  10. What liquid remin products are out there that you recommend? Keep in mind I am starting up 3+ racks of tanks again of both neos and some cards.
  11. Love the idea, but still haven't found a day job yet. So a large buy for me is out of the question right now. :-(
  12. Just curious what food you like to feed your crays? :-)
  13. Sounds like when I restored my phone. I was a lunkhead and didn't realize it would delete all my contacts. Ugh. That was a nightmare. I feel for ya, man.
  14. I would only hold them for the time it takes to breed or a single fem to release shrimplets. If blue is hard to come by, I would definitely get another tank going ASAP for them.
  15. Wow! I'm impressed! Although I'm camera illiterate, I can admire the art that goes into it!
  16. Few ever grow even that large. LOL
  17. I'm using UP aquasand, and it has been doing well for 3+ years. Of course, it has no nutrients for plants.
  18. Yep. Most Nerites do well in brackish. wetwebmedia.com/FWSubWebIndex/fwbrnerites.htm You should be okay. Besides, you should be doing regular wc regardless. ;-)
  19. You could add a single Nerite snail. They only grow between 1/2" to an inch, and keep the glass free of algae.
  20. Is YKK the only stable line of TaiTiB (or pseudo TaiTiB) currently?
  21. My green apple tigers have been berried, but the the babies rarely survive in 7+ph. I just dropped the gh more, and see some survival. I'm thinking about dropping ph, too.
  22. Not seen them here yet. I've been actively looking. :-)
