Puddles, that's exactly what I am hoping to do.
I learned the hard way from breeding projects before, that if tragedy strikes- the whole strain or project is gone.
I want to make sure I can spare some from breeding first. Right now every one gone means less genes to form any type of colony. And with 100+ berries dropped, and ~15-20 deceased, that's a lot to make up. *sigh*
Good news! With the ammocarb, no more deaths today!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for the idea DarkCobra. I'm just now expanding into fish, and I see there's some crossover that will be helpful with shrimp as well. About the only thing I hear about is Prime, buffer soils, remin and Purigen in shrimping.
Next move is to move some over to the 20g. Hoping to do so by the end of next week. Pro: Lots of room to feed'n'breed. Con: Finding each other when fem has molted.
