    Hey guys.. Hope everyone is doing great! I have this planted small tank with a single betta and I have added a red cheery shrimp. I know these shouldn't be kept together. Hoping to have another tank set up for the shrimp. But could you please help me figuring out whether my red cherry...

    I have this one pregnant female with some of her eggs hanging outside her belly, is this normal or should I be worried? (sorry for the bad quality image ^^ )
  3. Freshwater Shrimp
    So I posted a thread not too long ago in here where I've had issues with Hydra in a shrimp tank, which I have treated using fenbendazole powder and had an immediate positive effect that wipes the hydra off my tank, but after that, just a day after the treatment, vorticella suddenly appeared in...
  4. Freshwater Shrimp
    I haven't seen many posts or articles about treating Hydra in a RCS Tank using rock salt. I just want to know if this is even effective? Because I have seen few posts about it on other website saying rock salt or iodine free salt with the application of 3-5g of salt for every 1 gallon of water...
  5. Beginner Planted Aquarium
    For hobbyists that have not yet seen my article ‘Small Planted Tanks for Pet Shrimp,’ I recently put it onto the aquarium page of my book writing website. Article shows how to set up a 1-gallon (3.8 liter) bowl with small shrimp. It is an easy, inexpensive way to get started with plants and...

  10. Beginner Planted Aquarium
    I'm planning to get a planted 10. gallon up and running, but I'd like it to look more natural and so I'd want to have some real driftwood or possibly stones in the tank. I've been looking into mopani and cholla wood, as well as seiryu stones. I'll probably have some RCS, maybe move a betta...
  11. Beginner Freshwater Aquarium
    I have a 5 gal and am thinking about stocking neon or green neon tetras (green if i can find them bc theyre smaller), rcs and maybe a nerite snail. How does that sound? I don't know the quantities, the tank will be modestly planted and is on a fishless cycle now. Do any of those species not...
  12. Freshwater Shrimp
    My fish are having a minor, but prolonged, bout of ich at the moment. I am using the heat method, but cysts are still visible on my neon tetras after (I believe) 4 days. So I am hoping to put my aquarium salt to use. Only problem is that I don't want to expose my RCS or Wisteria to this...

At first, I was excited to see one, then two, then three, and counted up to eight so far. After I stare at them for good minute or two, I also...

  15. Freshwater Journals
    Not quite "fish" pictures but I really wanted to share pictures of my shrimp and the tank they occupy. Here is the tank. Plenty of scavenging areas for them to forage for food and open space so that I can see them. This is freshly set up so I expect there to be growth in most of the plants to...
