Title: Shrimp MTS strikes us again
Post by: P4Angels2 on October 28, 2012, 04:57:06 PM
Well Aron has came up with a great idea for me to be able to have MORE shrimps!! We picked up 2 15 gal tanks and we got some acrylic plexi glass in which he trimmed up to be able to divide the tanks in half so that we have 2 sets of different shrimp in 1 tank...so now we have Red Rili, Orange, Tigers, Blue Pearl, Red Cherry, and Amano shrimp all sitting in front of us so that we can sit back and watch them as they race around their tanks....He also noticed the other night that one of the female tiger's was full of berries!!!! All I can think of is wow we have only had these shrimp a couple of days when he noticed it so guess we are doing something right!!!

I have had a couple hundred in a planted 20 before. Started out with 10 lol. They became angels snacks every once in a while.

No they multiply really fast at times and others not at all. I haven't really figured out exactly what kicks them into overdrive. They have been really slow lately but I noticed last night that I have several berried in one of my BN fry tanks
