    Re: Finally... CRS shrimplets

    Congrats. I'm still trying for few months already, berried very fast but its very challenging for me to keep shrimplets alive because I don't have chiller yet.

    Re: Finally... CRS shrimplets

    Thanks Sgdepuissance & Starlett. I got berried shrimps quite often too, but the challenge is to keep the shrimplets alive... so far this is the best with 6 out of 8 survived. I'm having a 1ft tank thus I think my controlling of ph achieved this result.

    If its1ft, I don't think you have a chiller? But trying for a year, I admire your patience. It's been only few months for me trying on crs without chiller an I feel like too much pressure already.

    Re: Finally... CRS shrimplets

    I do have a chiller. Bought a used unit from forum. Because I can't bear to see the shrimps dying off due to our hot weather. Had tried using just fan. .. Don't think its enough. Now I keep thinking of upgrading to a slightly bigger tank but don't know how about doing so.

    I'm thinking of getting a chiller end this month. Worried the electricity bill will shoot up.

    Tks. Some also told me around there, 20-30 more but read some even shot up 100plus. Once I get my bonus this month will get chiller, most likely.

    Re: Finally... CRS shrimplets

    Sigh.... I used to finally succeed in getting PRL shrimplets until my tank sprout a leak and I have to change a new tank. None of my PRL made it unfortunately... Now starting with a new colony. Hopefully they will start breeding soon!

    That's very painful, especially for PRL...

    My greatest condolence. I can feel some of your pain since my tank leak last weekend.

    Normally? I not sure if there is any normally but if I were to guesstimate, then it would be the joint. The sealant don't hold forever and depends on workmanship. It can also happen is you or someone accidentally knock into the tank.

    Don't worry too much or you will end up one day worrying about crossing the road. Recent experience. Almost got knock down by a van while I was crossing the road when the green man is there for some time. Should I worry and never cross the road anymore?

    I'll probably not be flying in an airplane, sitting in a car or taking any public transport. hahahahaha......

    Re: Finally... CRS shrimplets

    Should I get married? What if my other half changes over the next few years? No married then no divorce. So want to married or not.

    After married, want to have children or not. What if children turn out to be terrorist then how? What if I lose my job then how to raise the family?

    Well....... I can only say this "you find a way to cross the river when you come to it".

    It's not what we face that defines us. It's how we react to it that defines who we are. hahahahahaha............

    Maybe S.E.A. Aquarium in Sentosa will leak one day. Until then, I don't think anyone is at all concern. Aquarium in Japan totally destroy by the earthquake and yet 4 months or so later, they recover and back to days before the earthquake. I saw this video. 1st half totally makes me lose heart and I'll probably give up. Not for the head of the aquarium who works double hard to restart again and restore back to former glory.

    Did I learn something? Maybe not cause I'm still a little sad over it because I only have it setup for 2 months. hahahahha....... tough luck. Some still running well after few years.

    If leaking puts you off then you have to consider that there are many more things that might dampen your spirit. eg: Algae, equipment failure, etc. I can't give you enough reason not to start with this hobby. Then again, what do you want at the end of this hobby? Likely it will be some form of enjoyment. Visitors to your home who admire your hobby making you feel nice? Know that you can do a proper job keeping everything going even when you encounter problem?

    Everyone will have their own goal in some way, shape or form. Me? I simply enjoy it for now until I lost interest somehow for some reason.

    Until then, I will continue to look at my hobby every night before I go to sleep. Not my wifey. Getting long winded with my post only shows that I'm getting older.

    hahahahahaha....

    PS: A laughter a day, keeps me younger each day. Hopefully.........
