Hello everyone, sorry for the lack of answers, I will try to answer everyone now
It was nice meeting you today! Thanks for helping me test my GH with your liquid tester! Hope the shrimps you netted today will do well in your tankOriginally Posted by gryphon
Bro sorry about your loss. Such beautiful shrimps
IMO, 20% water change is too much, 10% is safer
Have you just started using Dymax Instant Start? Mosura Shizen is usually used and most bros will age the water for a few days then use it for water change.
I just learnt this from the advices to Newlife's thread and have recently bought a container to age water for a week. Added Shizen as well as a ketapang leaf in the water.
It's just a normal moss wall. My tank is currently on 24/7 co2 dose using an atomizer at 1.5 bubbles per second. I don't doze any fertilizer and have stopped dosing excel about 3 weeks ago..
Bro gryphon helped me to test the GH for both my tanks and it's 3. I think I've narrowed the problem down to the Dymax anti chlorine that I've used for the 2 water changes that led to the deaths.
You are welcome. Looking forward to see your berried KK and CRS offsprings. Thanks for the nice shrimpsIt was nice meeting you today! Thanks for helping me test my GH with your liquid tester! Hope the shrimps you netted today will do well in your tank
Bro, U might want to stop your CO2. I had problems with shrimps and CO2 in the past. They start to die for no reason too. Unless that is you have very lush plants growth. If not mosses in general do not require any CO2.Hello everyone, sorry for the lack of answers, I will try to answer everyone now

Mad about shrimps!

My eggs didn't make it
I saw 3-4 fully developed fries, but they were already dead when I found them..
It is a pity. Nevermind your other berried mamas will give you many nice offspringsMy eggs didn't make it

Really sad to hear about the shrimps died...hope everything is fine now and your shrimps breed well.
Have you resolved issues with tank's water parameters? I was hoping to hear favorable updates on assisted hatching and interested to know what contraption was used.
Just to be politically correct, I believe the commonly accepted terminology for baby shrimp is "shrimplet". "Fry" generally refer to baby fish and FYI, the plural for fry is still fry. Fries... well... you get that from McDonalds!
I'm back & keeping 'em fingers wet,

Tank parameters are fine, I narrowed it down to the anti-chlorine I was using. I did a water change with shizhen and no deaths.. (so far)
great news! happy that you have counter the problem.

Ecalyte, so what was it you used to artificially hatch the clutch of harvested eggs?

I think it was a strainer that my mother use? I don't really know what she used it for.. haha! A bucket, and an air bubbler too!
Some pictures of my shrimps that were taken by bro Alvinchan! Thank you so much for these wonderful pictures!
CRS
BDS
This would be the first time I'm showing my BDS FH. Enjoy!
Unfortunately.. most of my CRS were hiding away.. hopefully we can have another shoot soon when they're all out!
Gorgeous shrimps!
Thank you!!
I have quite a few flowerheads with some crazy red legs, but they were hiding awayMaybe next time.. We were in quite a rush as I had an ill-planned mahjong game that made the timing really bad..
Nice photos by Alvin. Lovely shrimps.
Didn't take the other blacks?
Haha thanks! Umm.. We had only 30 minutes to take pictures so most were hiding... Only missed out on the thick female.. The rest are BKK which are plentiful here hehe.. Maybe i can psycho bro alvin to come back and take more pictures.. Hehe
Don't need to psycho, just remind me bring my net and my tau huey tub to your house.. No need much.. Just 1 shrimp either BDS or FH side.. I don't want cull tank portion please.. Hahahahaha..
钱不是问题！问题是。。。我没有钱。。。

I take for you... Just BKK offspring ;p
Haha! I counted 9 BKK offsprings just now all hiding behind the moss wall. All from the one mama, because the other 2 are still berried... Last count was only 4, so I guess they were hiding away since just now I counted there were 5 more! This moss wall is really really good for shrimplets. Every time a new berried mama hatches her brood I will always find them behind the moss wall without fail. These shrimplets will continue to stay in that moss wall for about 1 week before they start to venture out.. However, I did take heed of your warnings of possible Hydras.. so I check high and low all the time.. hehe, so far there's none!
But I'll reserve one BKK offspring for you and bro alvinchan la! Haha.. if my brood successfully grow, I'll pass one to you and bro alvinchan! The price... PICTURESSSSSSSSSSSS!
Very nice BDS!!! LOVE them to BITS!! HAHA..Hopefully your problems are all solved and they will be happily living and breeding away in your tank!
