Soothing Shrimp Posted January 4, 2015 Report Posted January 4, 2015 So I have (2) 20T tanks that I'd like to keep at a higher temperature of 80F or so. Suggestions on what shrimp to keep in those tanks at that temp? Thinking the possibility of sulawesi. My Malawas do great in those conditions. I figure I can raise ph if needed with cichlid substrate. Ideas? I'm thinking Blue Leg Poso, but since I selectively breed I need to offload the healthy shrimp that don't meet my criteria. Is there any want for posos? Other suggestions? Quote
aquariumlover10 Posted January 4, 2015 Report Posted January 4, 2015 Save one for the ghost shrimp n Just lower to 78 or 79 and they would be fine. Soothing Shrimp 1 Quote
Puddles Posted January 5, 2015 Report Posted January 5, 2015 Why do you want a tank that warm if you're not sure what shrimp will even go in it? edit: haha sorry fi that sounds rude I don't mean it that way at all. Just curious, seems like you want a warm tank just for the sake of a warm tank? Or are there genetic modification factors? Quote
Soothing Shrimp Posted January 5, 2015 Author Report Posted January 5, 2015 LOL I was wondering if someone would ask that Puddles. My 20T and above tanks seem to hold heat pretty well regardless of external temperature, and with my shrimp room being poorly insulated the heater in a tenner turns on constantly. So why heat it in the first place? because it works well for that, and I already have a bunch of unheated tenners. I'd like more variety. heh Quote
