  1. So after a couple weeks without anything happening, I set up a 20 long and added about 12 crs/cbs. A couple weeks into the move and I had my first berried shrimp and today, I have at least 20 babies and 4 other adults that are berried. Weird thing is that I also noticed 2 berried shrimp in my old tank. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. So I began feeding frozen brine shrimp over the past week and it looks like I have at least one saddled shrimp, however it is really difficult to tell on a crs/cbs. They do seem to really enjoy the brine shrimp, so hopefully I get some berried females soon. Also did a water change over the weekend. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  4. Thanks for the suggestion! I'll definitely pick up some frozen brine shrimp the next time I'm at the pet store.
  5. So I've had my 30 gal CRS/CBS tank running for about 2 years now and the shrimp seem to be doing well; however, they have not been breeding for almost 10 months now. My parameters are as follows: Gh - 7 Kh - 0 Ph - 6.4 Ammonia - 0 Nitrite - 0 Nitrate - 0 Temp - 72 I use RODI water remineralized with SS GH+ and a TDS of around 120. I started this tank with around 15 shrimp and by the end of the first year I was up to 50-60. Ever since then, I have not been able to get them to breed again. At first I thought it might be a seasonal thing but as the seasons passed, nothing would change. I've seen the shrimp molt from time to time but nothing happens. Anyone have any ideas? I'm stumped on this one.

  7. I also had this in one of my planted community tanks once. Manually remove as much as you can and do as citycode suggested with the blackout for a few days. That was the only thing that worked for me after battling it for months Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Ska shrimps is a sponsor on this forum and is located in Alberta I believe. Have dealt with them before and it was great! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  10. A benefit would be that it has more surface area to filter and also for the shrimp to feed off of. A disadvantage would be the amount of space it takes up in such a small tank. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. Hoping to start a journal to share with everyone sometime soon! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. I've been browsing the forum for a couple months now and figured that I should finally make an intro post. I currently have a 30 gallon tank with a mix of about 15 crs and cbs total. I also have a 7.9 gallon fluval tank that has a mix of a few fire reds and babaulti shrimp. I've been able to learn a lot from the forum so far and hope that I can help others that might be interested in the hobby too.
