    Some recent shots

    The adults feeding


    The young children feeding


    Painted Red


    Newly adopted Painted Red


    Another Newly adopted Painted Red. The amount of spotting is abit excessive, but its still very solid


    Zoom out tank shots



    Removed the marimo lawn as some BBA was hiding in it and cannot be killed with excel. Once the tank is clear of BBA (almost!), I'll replace with a new lawn

    Got mine from Midori, but they're no longer bringing in.
    Sorry, I'm only selling culls as I still cannot breed any that are as nice as the parent.
    Yes, the real painted are really much darker. I'm trying out feeding a wider range of diet to see if the color improves...

    Hi,

    Those are US fissidens. You can find it at the forum's market place, normally sold by mesh. I got mine from a few different bros here.
    But I bought too many meshes, now after they all fully grown, no space. I probably should post at marketplace again too

    Hi bro,

    No worries, I take it you meant the water parameters right?

    pH = 6.1-6.8 depending on CO2 injection and lighting hours
    Temp = 24.5-25.5
    Ammonia/Nitrite = 0
    Nitrate = 10-20ppm from fertilizers
    KH = 4
    GH = 8-10

    Actually, the Fire reds are cherry shrimps and quite forgiving about the conditions so they're fine to be kept at CRS conditions.
    However, the sulawesi shrimp is definitely not in its native conditions and I'm not entirely comfortable that I got this shrimp on an impulse just to test out a theory. But it seemed to be somewhat correct after almost 3 months...

    But now, I'm not sure what to make of it...should I try to breed them by getting more? Maybe I'll observe awhile more
