LET THERE BE SHRIMP!

My shrimp arrived today I spent a longer time acclimation them this time around and they seem to be doing great so far. I had to use a soup ladle to move water around - it was the biggest utensil I could find that fit through the lid. My sg was a little high due to evaporation, so I lowered it down to about 1.012 before acclimating.

I like the picture that looks like they are a romantic couple watching the sunset

I’ve been using a pipette to “stir” in my rodi. It also adds some squirts of bubbles that may or may not be beneficial but the shrimp are always really active afterwards.

No real updates for me. The Shrimp are happy and healthy. I do get a little film on the top of the water from time to time I believe is from the Mangroves in the water. But still going strong.

Same here. Getting an algae film on top too. Thought it was from using a lid, or not using a lid but neither seems to have an effect either way. Shrimp don’t seem to care, and seem to pick at it some.

We do too, but we have wood in ours.

That may be why I have it. My "tree" is a piece of manzanita. Didn't consider that.

 

[JP Wagner]

The Mangrove roots are growing, happy about that. The shrimp are doing good, love hanging in the rock Scape.

Week 8. Added heater which may or may not be contributing to algae on glass that I had to wipe off front before taking my pic. Shrimp are all still doing well. No babies yet.

Shrimp are working away on the algae but ordered a few more to help out!
