ok so i’m wondering on what the most reef safe shrimp is because i’m looking to get one and as i’m looking i’m not seeing very good things.
so i first though coral bandit shrimp because i heard- they were reef safe but the i kept reading and it looked to be a 50/50 on if they would eat corals...
Was meaning to make a thread of the timeline of my nano tank for a while...

I'm very interesting in obtaining a coral croucher, but I am very worried about the compatibility of them with certain types of invertebrates. I was planning to keep a tank with a group of pom pom crabs, sexy shrimps, a Randall's snapping shrimp, and fire shrimps. However, I am wary of getting a...
I'm setting up a sexy shrimp and rock flower tank. A waterbox 4g. I've had it running a couple months with only a few rock flower nems. Recently bought gsp from a local reefer, and noticed a rather large (2+inches) bristle worm try to steal food from a nem during the last feeding. I presume he...
1) My lone peppermint shrimp (from Florida so it should be Lysmata wurdemanni) looks to be holding eggs. She's never done this before. So I used my Google-fu and found that they are proandrous hermaphrodites. They all start out as male and them become hermaphrodites (and maybe then become...

Also, what are the chances of mini carpets to eat...
I have an IM14 (14 gallons total, probably 13 of that in the display) that sits on my desk. I currently have three sexy shrimp, two Pederson't anemone shrimp, one snapping shrimp and a peppermint shrimp. Oh, and four masked gobies (tiny fish, around 1 inch long) The tank doesn't look crowded but...
Sorry for the rather sensational headline. The incident that I captured with my camera is that of my Ricordea Florida eating one of my Thor Amboinensis alive.
Now I know we hear many stories of corals and shrimp purportedly eating one another and the usual comments that "it was probably already...
Hi all, I am currently studying the captive breeding of Sexy Shrimp (Thor Amboinensis) and Skunk Cleaner Shrimp (Lysmata Amboinensis).
During my experiments I have noticed an apparent phonomonam with regards Thor Amboinensis. I started of with 6 Shrimp, all of similar size. Using my magnifying...
Hi I got a couple question about doing a nem only tank and figured this would be the best place to ask. I have a nano cube setup with multiple different corals and my Nem which had previously stayed on the rock in front of the tank for 4 months decided it no longer liked the flow there. So I...
