  4. My friend has a forest of bamboo in his backyard which is pesticide free, would anyone be interested in any? Boil them before you use since birds do like to fly through them. They promote good bio-film growth and is what you'd find in their natural streams. $8 for 10 grams (a ziplock bag full.) $3 shipping first class I'll also throw in a sample of my homemade food that my shrimps demolish. They are dense, hold their shapes, and powder up so that the babies can get a chance to eat. Feeding videos posted. If you would like whole packets it would be $15 for 25g $25 for 50g two bags / mix and match. Flux Aquatics ~ Vert. Spirulina, Chollera, Kale, moringa and much more! Flux Aquatics ~ Bordeaux. Anastaxin, Açai berry, bee pollen, Nopal cactus, Oat grass, and more! All Ingredients sourced from an organic food co-op. video-1516847823.mp4
  5. Chlorine evaporates in a few hours while Chloramine takes days. Personally as a shrimp keep I always have 25 gallons of RO/DI on hand at all times. I bred neos for 2 years when I started off tap the same way i'd advise others, a friend of mine in NYC breeds CRS in his tap same method.
  6. Check your tap to see if there is any nitrates in it. I would not use any conditioners, I would age my tap water so that the chlorine can breathe out. General rule of thumb, you'd want zero nitrates. The GH in my opinion seems to be a tad high. Generally I'd keep neos between 5-7gh. Tds around 200-250.
  7. But wouldn't this method also introduce foreign bacteria into your tank? I've had a vibro bacterial infection in one of my tanks awhile back when I had my neos and introduced Oebts from aquabid. My guess is that when I added in the mosses and plants that my shrimp were shipped with it infected my tank. I would assume you fill the breeder box with some of the original water right? The neos dropped like flies and heads turned an orange/reddish internally. I had to act fast and treat with oxytetracycline, which I believe every shrimp keeper should have next to an incubator.
  8. The offspring are in the 1st pic. They are blue and brownish like all the stardust's you see everyone in the US sell. The blue can be drawn out by breeding and feeding more spirulina / cyanobacteria based foods.
  9. I have homebred shrimp for sale Stardust shrimp $8 ea original stock from Ben Buckley parents are shown, so the shrimps you'll get will have the genes for them. I'm still trying to figure out how to bring out the speckles. It is possible it's developed when they are adults. CRS/CBS mischlings with red zebra fishbone genes, erkk, ebb, ebbk, shadow pandas may also have tibee genes. $3 ea. Homemade shrimp food I have been working on shrimp food for awhile and finally achieved what I believe to be guys all made in small batches. The prices heavily reflect on the ingredients I sourced, I don't make that much from the food but I want to share this with the community. My shrimps prefer this over commerical foods when split tested them for interest on opposite sides of the tank after fasting for 2 days. Flux Aquatics Vert A spirulina rich food with Chollera, Wheat grass, dandelion, alfalfa and more. $12 for 20 grams. Flux Aquatics Bordeaux It's a hybrid of key components you'd find for improving red coloration and supplementing the shrimps immunesystem. A blend of ingredients you'd find in shrimp nature brown and red but with my own recipie. $15 for 20 grams I also accept crypto currency. I will give bonus shrimp if you pay in DOGE COINS! Shipping is $15 for shrimp. $3 for food alone. DOA coverage with a photo of dead shrimp inside the bag. Please check your weather as well. All shrimp are shipped in insulated boxes and breather bags.
  10. Identifiable clean mosses I have are... Peacock Quell willow moss *native to the USA* Queen moss Fissidens *the common one* Let me know if your interested. I also have some Wild mosses I picked from the streams around me. They're in my shrimp tanks and I took care of sanetizing and quarentining them.
  11. I wouldn't really dismiss being blind as a reason to why they wouldn't eat shrimplets. Usually blind organisms have other means of "seeing" From what I've seen with other blind organisms, they sense by smell, or feel with vibrations. Personally as a breeder. I would never keep fish and shrimp together, since you're adding more variables to cause something to go wrong. Whether its passively stressing them out, or disturbing shrimps when it comes time for feeding.
