The only time I've ever seen a cherry greedier than an amano
The 3 clear/gray ones are a few of the amanos I raised myself in saltwater. They're still babies but they're already fighting with cherry shrimp over algae wafers 😂 usually the amanos win, even at that size, but it looks like I caught someone losing this time
Shrimp are are doing well
They are back to normal eating and grazing again. After a huge scare because of the Pesticide into the water. Mu shrimps were frantically darting and lying on their side/back, after the water changes 3x water changes 60% each with the charcoal and a day later, they look back to normal. Thank you everyone for the tips and never gonna make that mistake ever again.
My new baby is so pretty!
Picked up this beauty at my LFS today and I just need to show her off
Finally got my oe blue black sapphires 😍
They really said 🟠👄🟠
Possible shrimpfection
I went to look at my little guys today and noticed this white spot around the rostrum and want a second opinion on if it is vorticella or Scutariella Japonica. If so, I've heard salt dunks are pretty effective and could use some tips!
She's more egg than shrimp at this point
Between being eggnant and saddled, I think she has more egg mass than shrimp mass!
Is this what I get for having a Skittles Tank?
I have a Skittles Tank with all kinds of neos. They are breeding like crazy, so will they all start looking like this eventually?
Meu Amano é macho? Porque?
Esse cara me trouxe dúvidas sobre ser macho ou uma fêmea jovem.
Tenho outro junto e é imenso, por isso sei que é fêmea, e também porque tem mais cor.
The new guy has arrived
First vampire shrimp arrived today. Also my first mail ordered animals (including the nerites).
He's even more goofy looking than I was expecting.
Accepting name ideas.
My first shrimps :)
I've had 3 amanos for almost a week now and just got 12 neos yesterday. they're soooo cute and I am so obsessed with them. I can't get over how tiny the neos are. I have to plan to not get any real work done until the aquarium light goes off for the day lol.
funnily enough I wanted to get neos because I thought they would be easier to see than the amanos (plus the fun colors ofc), but the amanos are actually usually a lot easier to see since they're so much bigger! especially when the tank light is off. I'm so happy I got both!
Funky little guy
My tank has a wide variety of colors of neos that result in an even wider variety of colors. I noticed this guy a little while back. At first I was concerned about a stuck shed but it looks like it's just his coloration.
MWAH <3 (and baby shrimp)
One of these days I’ll get a macro lens
Couldn't find the stand for my shrimp lollies and they floated away ...
Neocaridina shrimp
I am going to be adding shrimps to my 3 gallon shrimp tank this weekend. It is cycled with tons of plants. I have found many different opinions of proper temperature for them, so I am hoping to get more opinions on what temp you keep yours at, and how they do. I’ve read room temp is fine, I’ve had some say 79 like a betta tank, I’ve read some saying they don’t do well that high. Any insight please
