TheShrimporium Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 So after seeing the video ctaylor posted on Bryce's thread about cardinal shrimp, I have decided to keep my remaining Cardinals and try a new rescape along with SS 8.5 I have successfully bred several spawns using SS 7.5, but I have read that 8.5 produces more(not sure if thats true). So, anyway I just received my 8.5 and was wondering how you guys/gals would go about transitioning the tank to the higher PH. I'm thinking of over the course of the next few weeks, after doing about 10-20% water changes weekly, replacing the water with 8.5 and dripping it in for about 2 hours. What do you think?

Soothing Shrimp Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 Makes sense to me. The big effort is top make sure it is fully dissolved first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShrimporium Posted May 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 Already dissolving as we speak. Quick question.... what are the small egg-like creatures that move extremely slow across the glass. I'm having a brain fart and cannot remember. Basically they are clearish white with a dark spot in the middle and are about 1.5mm in size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctaylor3737 Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 Definantly take your time dropping it. I'm sure you know how sensitive they are to changes. Co2 helps dissolve it. Shake the bottle once a day to. Will dissolve quick -Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
