Nice. Faster upgrade your IQ5, once the babies come sure over stock haha. Breed alot so next time my tank ready can get from you![]()
Wow great setup and good to see shrimps moving around as mine are so shy after a month and still hiding.
Wow..... just realised the setup for Sulawesi Shrimps are quite different from normal CRS..... i have them mixed together and the Sulawesi are slowly dying out on me.... damn.....
Really nice set up you got there.....
Nice setup.Clean & neat!
hey bro whats the shrimp that looks like the king kong. is it really black in color? That got me excited
still learning the hard way!!
Thanks for the nice comments! Sulawesi shrimps are so colourful and vibrant. Advantge is maintainance are lower especially as it don't require chiller, cycling process is also faster as not using soil therefore ammonia and nitrates are low.
Jovel bro, IQ5 is like my computer desk therapy, wont upgrade, will keep it for my eye candy. The rest will all go in the 2ft, will share more picture when there are progress. So far IQ5 have quite afew shrimplets of cardinals and cateyes.
Garyp bro, do note on the requirements they need to survive. Sulawesi shrimps need high PH unlike the crs that are low.
Neondagger bro, the black looking one is actually called the original blue bee i think. It's actually bluish when stress, now stable is dark and look blackish.
More updates of my tank.
