Thank you so very much, Wookii! I appreciate your help immensely. Thank you for taking time to reply my basic questions.
Make sure that they are detritus worms and not Planaria. Planaria use can be very harmful to a shrimp-only tank, I currently have a Planaria trap in my shrimp tank.
hi Driftless, thank you. we’re planing to add fishes in two weeks when we return from holidays. i hope the cycle will still be going ok until then.
I put a tiny pinch of Bacter AE in every third day , they get a dinner pad and a mineral bite once a week and a tiny pinch of crumb food(literally one crumb each for the adults) every other day , I'm on my 2nd round of eggs and I've had them a month. I lost a couple to failed moults, hence the mineral bites and I'm now going to be alternating the bacter with shrimp baby to make sure the tinies have plenty of biofilm to munch on . I don't have masses of food tubs, i got a sample pack off a guy on ebay that got me all the basic glasgarten foods plus snow pops, pollen and a granulated food in little packets, and they're lasting ages because the shrimp need so little
I'm always happy to see a moult, it means I'm still doing something right , Best thing today has been seeing 3 tinies in the community tank that I've been waiting for since the littles emerged in my cube, I knew they'd only be a couple of days behind but them actually coming out to eat was a phew moment
It must be such special moment when you see the first baby shrimps! A relief too, I'm sure.
I'm losing track now, there's some juveniles that came into the tank as little dots and at least 2 different ages of babies, maybe 3 so your guess is as good as mine
Lollies are great fun 🍭 to watch and count them 😁 love your shrimps colours contrasting with the green plants 👍
