My Office Sulawesi Tank

[shearerkk]

How do you keep your other tank to have the same ph and tds though?

Ph I use coral chips, TDS I use a new mosara product called 'TDS up'

[shearerkk]

Finally, the birthed!.... good news is the condition is correct in my tank.. and fry survived!... bad news is... can only see the only lone fry

Enjoy the pics!

Congrats

Thanks Bro.....

Ohhh.... just a reminder to you, to be using the full spelling of all words used here in AQ, meaning "congratulation"

I had just being issued with 3 infraction points, which will only expire on the 7th, for using sms/ IM lingo. I was surprise that no warning were given, as I am fully aware of the policy, but I had assume short form of certain standard words can be written; apparently not.

I better focus from now on, to spell every single words, like pictures, instead of 'xxc', month instead of 'xxh' etc

you watch out too okie.

'okie' ? Haha.

Nice setup. Need to learn from all of you what species is which. I think I bought cardinals and blue leg peso. But can I ask if the shrimp is red with dark yellow stripe across it's body, what species is that? Thanks in advance..

Zack brother, thanks for pointing out my immediate mistake!! But its alright... I try my best to correct it.

As for the shrimp you describe, hmm... Could it be a red gold flake?

[ZackZhou]

Ah.. It should be that. Haha. Thanks for answering my doubts

Looks like Sulawesi shrimp is getting hot...
I have a simple 1 ft cube set up as well.

Recently I bought a pair of Starry Night,
the parents did not made it. The shrimplets
are still around and about 6 mm in length.

Anyone knows how to improve their chance
to juvenile stage?

Good luck in your shrimps! hope to see updates soon! )

Updates :-

Most of the cardinal survived; but two adult one disappeared..*sob* not sure if it is mounding failure... cause it happens during the period when I am away from office (due to Hand Foot Mouth Disease at home).

Anyway, the one and only shrimplet is growing well.

TDS :- 600-700
Temperature :- 29-30
PH :- 8.0

Maybe considering topping up more cardinals next month once I am confident that my water parameters are okie, and that the recent death not due to it.

Updates :-

With 4 cardinal adults, I found 2 berried mommies.

Lets see how this batch will survive.

Contests, double joy. I just read gestation is about 30 days... Hope that you will get more shrimplets this round. By the way, what do you feed them with? Do you introduce dried Indian almond leave?

Contest, should read Congrats...

Woohoo... congratulations! Hope to see more shrimplets soon! I still have a lonely cardinal. Went to 328, didn't see any, so have to wait for their next shipment.

[kokkeng1972]

thanks for sharing....i have ~5 cardinal left (start with >10) but none have berried yet

[shearerkk]

Indian almond leave? hmmm... never tried, does it help in water parameters? Where to get and care to share more?

I feed them normal Red Bee Line shrimp food, and sometime the lobster food. Don't have the names of the food as it is in office. Maybe will update tomorrow.

Thanks for keeping in-tune with my thread. I hope to see more shrimplets too!! Lets keep finger cross.

Actually you dont have to wait for 328, you can order some from Pet Mart at Serangoon North too..... 10 for $50 (collection on Thursday if I am not wrong; and they minus off price for any dead shrimps during collection, but collection must be done within a certain time frame)

10 for $50 is only for cardinals right? Are the other breed about that price?
