Soothing Shrimp

Since we have sales and raoks here, should we also have a way to leave feedback?

Low Grade Carbons- 4.95 ea. (The top shrimp in the photo is a low grade.) While selectively breeding to improve my carbon strain, some low carbons are produced along the way. These are often blue with flecks of darker blue on them. Very pretty, but don't fit into my breeding program. Least Killifish (Heterandria formosa) $1.95 ea. North America's smallest fish, and one of the smallest fish in the world! These were bred from wild caught and now I'm on the 3rd to 4th generation of tank bred. No more need to take from the wild for these Fish, and used to tank conditions! Males get to be around 3/4", and females around 1". Live bearers and very hardy! Selling these around 1/2" or so. Shipping is a flat $10 and covers priority insulated box, and breather bags. If you need a heat pack, please let me know. I usually ship on Saturdays for best chance of live arrival.

Wait...we're testing bettas?

That's fine until you get married. LOL Then there's almost NO "exercise." LOL

Yay short fat white guys! LOL

I have been waiting a long time for someone as knowledgeable about shrimp foods such as yourself to make them. You KNOW I am on your list.

"What do you think?" LOL I think you should do whatever makes YOU feel good.

Yeah. I hear ya. heh Don't be fooled though. Even rasbora can take down shrimp that's larger than them by "dissecting" them first.

I thought the same thing, but didn't know if that was possible.

From here it looks almost like bark chips.

The substrate looks cool. I don't think I've seen that before.

All those fish can eat shrimp, so make sure you have plenty of hiding spots. Welcome! I'm a short fat white guy too!

Sake, you can't just sneak in. LOL Post a thread about yourself so we can give you a proper welcome!

Welcome, dude!

It's always a crapshoot as to whether or not mom drops the eggs when stressed. She'd be even more stressed if placed in different water params though.

I'm having that problem in my TT tank. They are always berried, and I see babies, but they wind up disappearing over time.

I hear ya gal. I love this hobby. very addicting! Welcome over here! Glad to see you made it!

Never see 'em coming, eh? heh As long as you have mulm or algae, they seem to do pretty well.

Thanks folks. I don't breed in super large quantities, so I tend to offer different types at different times. I do have a waiting list though. I'm of the mind that I'd rather be respected for my selective breeding than make tons of money, One day I would love to have a selective breeding aquafarm. Now THERE's a dream!

If you have algae on the glass, I've found they really like to eat from that for the first couple weeks.

I don't have any control over the algae in my shrimp tanks either. LOL

Beautiful. Do you use CO2?
