Hi
I’ve not managed to find anything as yet. I’m guessing (apologies) that the cpds will have a munch on some of the young shrimp and the large shrimp will do the same to some eggs. Once I make space, I’m getting another group, and will not keep shrimp with them to see if it makes any difference.
Tom2006ParticipantGood stuff…nice price! Hope they do well for you! Still waiting for mine to breed! :roll:
Tom2006ParticipantMine are wild caughts (Apparently) and were very timid. Still are really, but when I come into the room now they do dart towards the front of the tank in the hope of food.
Tom2006ParticipantI agree. The gravid spot is very evident…as long as your eyesight it decent. lol
Tom2006Participantwelcome!
I’d love to advise but still waiting for mine to breed. Gorgeous fish though. Fingers crossed we both do it!
My tank is approx 40 litres, heavily planted with mainly java moss. Tiny powerfilter and a sponge filter. I just feed crushed flake.
Tom2006ParticipantLet me know if your coming to Hull
Tom2006ParticipantMy local maidenhead has a tank full….Beverley East Yorkshire. Not a massive drive for such lovely fish. I got mine for £4 each. They are up for £4.25 each.
Tom2006ParticipantNothing really other than three L134 plecs which keep themselves to themselves. Other than that just cherry shrimp.
Tom2006Participantthanks good to know. I’ve dramatically reduced the shrimp numbers just incase. Just need them to spawn now.
Tom2006ParticipantThanks…thats good to hear, not sure if the wife would have allowed it inside anyway. lol
Tom2006ParticipantThanks Dennis….spot on just what I was after. Can’t beat hearing how others have done it. Will report back if and when I succeed!
Tom2006ParticipantGreat thanks!
Tom2006ParticipantI’d be happy to become a mod. Although looking at the traffic through the site, no offence, there isn’t much need for one?
I’d be happy to try and push the name of the site around. I suppose like you say, the initial hype has died down, which is strange because they are still fantastic fish!
Tom2006Participantvery nice tank indeed! Wish I had the guts to go for a proper planted tank. I might try it in my nano
Tom2006ParticipantGed, what pellets do you use for your shrimp (and gpds). I currently feed my cherry shrimp hikari micro pellets which they love but always like to vary things.
