Tricks for spotting / drawing-out baby skrimplettes? Wife thinks I am nuts...

Posted: 29 Mar 2021 09:00 PM PDT

Hey guys!! I recently had a Red Rilli berried for about 3 1/2 weeks - I watched the eggs lose their color and turn translucent over a couple days and then drop off in batches- certain birth had occurred!! So began my search...

Alas our tank is heavily planted -I've spent many hours trying to spot one and I think I may have -ONE!! Even got a (terrible) picture as proof before he/she moved along.

Now it's tough to see and my wife just thinks I've gone shrimp-crazy....so I'll keep looking.. my eyes are crossed and I believe I've formed actual relationships with the adults in my tank... they have different personalities....but continue I must!!!

Any tips for drawing the little buggers out for confirmation of their... existence? I'm thinking algae wafer at dark and sneak in with a flash light .. or something like that...

Any ideas are welcome 🙏 thank you 🦐 family!!

I think I finally figured out why I'm losing shrimp, but now I need help with KH and GH

Posted: 29 Mar 2021 11:59 PM PDT

I'm pretty much brand new to aquariums (got my first one in January from a friend, already established, fully cycled, etc) and have been trying to turn it into a shrimp tank pretty much since then. Usually I buy 3-4 shrimp at a time and they all seem totally fine and happy for the first few days, then I start losing one every now and then. A lot of them have been failed molts. My water params:

pH: 7.2
temp: 76-77º F
TDS: ~210
ammonia: 0
nitrites: 0
nitrates: 5 ppm

I didn't have a GH/KH test kit until I read about how low gh/kh might be causing the molt fails and ordered one that arrived today. My KH is 3, and my GH changed color instantly with one drop, so I assume it's even less than 1!! I read that KH for neocaridina should be about 6-9 and GH should be 8-10. How should I go about raising my gh/kg levels without impacting my pH too much?

I read about using crushed coral but tbh I don't want a bunch of white crushed coral on my new, pretty black sand... and I don't have a place to put it in my filter unfortunately. I already have a cuttlebone in the bottom of the tank and one in my filter, but apparently they aren't doing much. I also read about Seachem Equilibrium, but it seems that addresses GH only?? Please share your tips, I really want to stop killing my shrimps!

Posted last week about if my first shrimp looked healthy, now she's berried!

Bought a new macro lens and though to try it out with my shrimps. This is the second birth and I am excited.

30 seconds of wood shrimp

Nice fire reds. No filter. I like how the color pops against substrate.

Posted: 29 Mar 2021 10:26 PM PDT

Pregnant shrimps hanging out on wood very close to surface. Cause for concern? The rest of the 11 shrimps are almost always at the bottom, actively swimming around (and sometimes coming to the surface)

New 10 gallon shrimp tank - plant advice?

Posted: 30 Mar 2021 01:15 AM PDT

Hey guys! I've been wanting to start a shrimp tank for about a year now. I finally went and picked up a 10g tank, substrate, an air pump (sponge filter in the mail) and API testing kit.

I'm not even sure what shrimp I'm gonna get yet, I'm going to set everything up and let it cycle for a while and add in plants/decorations.

Anyway, where do you guys buy your plants online? Also, any specific plants you recommend for a beginner? I'm trying to keep it fairly inexpensive.

Thanks for any advice!
