is K1 good to use for shrimp keeping?

[gryphon]

Bro, can advise how you determine the gender? I thought the 1st is female because of the bigger rounder belly

[reiner09]

Bro, can advise how you determine the gender? I thought the 1st is female because of the bigger rounder belly

could be the camera angle for picture 2.and in comparison.making the 1st picture look slightly rounder? but then again it can be a female since it does look rounder on the belly... try see-ing if it has a sadle?

[thxpro98]

is K1 good to use for shrimp keeping?

comparison to keeping monster fishes... K1 is better for them. However K1 is just a precaution for me... incase my filter go haywire.. my K1 look slightly browny now, just added more recently...

Bro, can advise how you determine the gender? I thought the 1st is female because of the bigger rounder belly

ya i confuse too... but the rounder not that round. however the feelers.. compare to the male is shorter so i > ... lol.

i will try to take more photos asap... will try the same angle... i cant see the saddle... the light cant go through the white to see anything ~
