I've been using it religiously daily since i first got from Daiso, resultant temperature not effective, but still cools abit. My first shrimp death only occurs hours after I change water.
    Tried with the 500g big pack from Daiso, it didnt last long, left it floating for about 30mins, all the gel inside the pack totally melted. i think using bottle of water freeze in freezer still last longer.

    Re: Most hardy shrimp

    Hi benny, what's your tank size? Share details of mine for reference;
    Tank size: 1ft
    Ambient temp: 29-30dc (non-aircon)
    Icepack: 350g
    Result temp: 27dc
    Effect length: 2-3hrs

    Above details was recorded for 7 days minimum. Take into consideration the melted gel are still cold, no need to remove them immediately. Hehe, in fact my shrimps like the shade.

    haven't log on for quite a while. I find that my sakura breed like rabbit in my 3 feel planted tank with fishes. It is a low tech tank with eheim filter and lights. No fan no zircon. Never tried other shrimps as I do not want to mix the colours.

    Hi guys, just sharing some stuff I tried.... Previously I had tried ice cube etc.... But it's not long lasting.....
    Hence, I use some stainless steel tubing and twist them till they a coil...
    Then place them into a Styrofoam box with 800ml of Blue Ice (Bought from NTUC, could be reuse once you freeze them in the fridge).
    Manage to bring down the temperature to 23 degree... And last more than 5 hour before the temperature slowly raise up again.
