    hi guys,

    currently my tank got a lot of hydra, which is a threat to my shrimplets.
    i keep only CRS and cherry shrimps.

    i've got a few options:
    put gourami --eat hydra but also my shrimp
    put clown loach --may eat hydra but also my shrimp as well
    chemicals --may kill the shrimps together.

    which poison should i take ar..
    please advise, bros...

    rgds,
    Albert

    It sure is difficult but you can try this... You can try injecting Excel or salt water, using a syringe, directly over or into the Hydra. Be sure to change the water after that...

Starting cheap, now have Cryptocoryne beckettii, C.beckettii var petchii, C.crispatula var.balansae, C.griffithii(Melted! ), C.nurii, C.parva, C.pygmaea(Melted! ), C.tonkinensis(Melted! ), C.walkeri, C.wendtii 'Brown', C.wendtii 'Green', C.wendtii 'Green Gecko', C.wendtii 'Tropica' and Cryptocoryne x willisii

    Oh, juggling is hard work, man!...

    Very expensive lesson if you are not familiar with Seachem Excel. My take, scope out all your shrimps into another tank.
    Something about the water & the fishes that calms me down.
