Opea Ula are a brackish water shrimp. They are fully aquacultured on wwwpetshrimp.com and the site also offers a brackish strain of cheato and moss. You can also add mangroves if you like:)

One tank is already enough work for me. ;Blackeye

I get it. However, these shrimp require essentially nothing. Use 1/2 water from your reef and 1/2 top-off at about 1.010 sg. If kept in a fairly temperate house no heater needed. On a window sill with some sunlight is plenty, though you can add a light if you like. No flow needed. Feed approximately twice a month. Great way to get kids or loved ones involved. Here is the start of mine that I am doing with my kids.

Hmmm. You've got me thinking. There's this cute little blonde girl that is super interested in my tanks. Firefly season is essentially over, making her Mason jar available.

Funny timing. I decided to start up a shrimp tank like 2 months ago now. I went with a 3.7gal and i only have 6 shrimps. Idk if i could start up another tank. This was my 4th one as it is.

Neato tanks for sure I like those blue bolt shrimp above they look great

Three tanks is my max :) dips into travelers funds to go 4x I'm tuned into these builds though to see how they proceed

Those shrimp mentioned above / opulae are probably toughest shrimp around that's what the ecospheres from the 90s used and some of them lasted 8-10 yrs in those desktop spheres w no external support other than lighting
