airriick Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 Hello all! I'm about to phase out my main TB. So i'll have room for neocardina.. It's been over 5 years since I've kept them. Rilis look so cool to me. I have a few questions. What are their PH parameters? Also what happens if you mix n match rili shrimp? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMG Aquatics Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 pH of 7-8 is best but can be kept in 6-7 as well rwong2k 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jem_xxiii Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 the good thing about neocaridina is that they take a wider range of params compared to caridina. Yes 6-7 pH would be ideal, but may people including I have them in a pH that is between 7-8. If you mix the rilis eventually you will mess up the nice rili patterns and down the lie you will end up reverting back to a wild type.

airriick Posted February 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 thank you all for the answers You could house TB with neos always a shot lol. Never get rid of shrimp just more tanks.Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk I put a bloody mary in my tb tank. Died the next day.. lol Now I have to figure out how to safely bump up pH. Have you guys kept any neos in pH of 6.5? I've noticed a lot of people keep them around 7-7.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soothing Shrimp Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 How did you acclimate the test neo, or did you plop and drop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
