Hi all hope everyone has been well?! I woke up to this in my email alerts this morning! I’m not going to say anything as to the lash I got for pointing this out months ago and obviously it has gotten worse if D is pointing it out again but glad that @Deanasue has brought this to everyone’s...

Although most of you disagree with me there are some ppl that have come forward and agreed. You can’t just blame this on the pandemic, that’s like saying I kicked the cat because I was bored... you are all responsible for your own actions regardless of what has happened. But although there are...

Thanks hun, hugs and condolences back. You my friend I honour tremendously. It was hard enough to lose my mum but to lose one of my babies I could not imagine at all. My heart fills with sadness but a huge amount of respect for you with your positive outlook :wub:

My mums was an aggressive one too and untreatable unfortunately. As much as you hated seeing them in a way you don’t want to imagine you just wish they did stay to fill that emptiness

Thank you hun and condolence to you as well. I was close to my mum so she sits very close to my heart! My siblings and I realise she is in a better place now as her fight with cancer was horrific to watch but it doesn’t make it any easier.

Happy anniversary to you and your darling x

Oh and we do our dates with day/month/year here in Aussie

I understand it’s been rough for everyone this year, we to have an election in Queensland Australia going on this week too but I think this is where everyone needs to stick together and find the right balance. I personally have been dealing with a lot with motherhood, work issues and also the...

Maybe I’m just over exaggerating and see things differently :dunno: Could be my queue to move on.

Please do not get me wrong, I know it’s a great forum hence why it’s the only one I use and everyone is amazing here but I’ve just seen changes that’s all. Maybe it’s just a different personalities that are coming through here or misinterpreted on how one puts forward advice. Idk :dunno:

Hey all hope everyone is well?! So pretty much what the title says!! What is going on guys, I haven’t been on much due to outside of the forum issues but I come back and everyone is having digs at each other and are at each other’s throats.. Not the forum it was and I’m not sure what has...

I can’t believe you have the audacity to come on here over 2 months later and have a dig at @emeraldking like that! Not only was your comment rude but talking down to him like he is an idiot is not on! You have beef with him outside of the forum or from previous posts that’s fine but don’t be...

Thank you hun, I’m really happy with it

No C02 but do add half a cap full of flourish a week and a full spectrum led light too.

Hi all hope everyone is well?! So I thought I’d show you an update from when I first setup the shrimp tank 11th September, the middle photo is the one I posted on here on 5th Oct and last pic was taken today. I honestly thought I had it up and running longer tbh I love this tank so much :wub:

I love the look of christmas moss and want to get some for the tank, I just want to decided where to put it first as it’s pretty heavily plant now and I don’t know moving to much around in the shrimp tank. My plants grow/moss grows really well without anything but I have been using a bit of...

I missed the other post and apologise for that. Byron my heart and thoughts are with you! I wish you all the best for your surgery and have every bit of faith that you got this hun! All my love Ange x

Here is a prime example on growth. This is from when I setup the new shrimp tank up about 2 months ago to now

Java moss is really hardy and easy to grow in low light. I got a nice size ball of it about 6 months ago it was pretty dead in the middle of it but I picked out what I could and added it to driftwoods in the tanks. I now have so much of it that I end up sucking bits of it up in water changes...

Oh hun, sorry to hear but glad you are recovering and able to get more time to enjoy life and your fish. Please rest up and take care of yourself x

I have never owned a Betta but I have seen the agree to disagrees on housing a betta whether it’s alone or in a community tank. But that is your opinion which is absolutely fine hun but others have found a safe haven to well suit a betta in a community tank! Colin and Byron are well up there...

I’m really baffled with the comments and hostility on here tbh. After reading this thread I went through and search @itiwhetu comments thinking he was some arrogant person and honestly could not see anything wrong with what he (sorry if you’re a she) was saying and bringing forward with his...

Oh thank you girls :wub:

Hi all Hope everyone is well?! So I decided to do a bit of a hardscape theme in the main tank today and this is how it worked out! I’m a bit nervous about it as I’m so used to a heavy planted tank especially with the Val but I’m sure I’ll get used to it.

Shrimp lose colour and camouflage with their surroundings to blend in from the threats of predators, it’s just natural. If it is not what colin has suggested and they are fine it would be because of the white surrounding in the tank. When I set up the new shrimp tank I used sand and found that...

my 76G runs 2 internal and a big sponge and my 10G a sponge too so I have glig flight coming from all directions! We must just love the noise.”, or the fact it tunes out the kids whining :rofl:

my shrimp tank is like that on both sides with the sponge filters

Tank is a curved glass tank

Your waters would be to hard for them. You would have a lot of molting problems. My tank sits at 6ppm so it benefits for both the neo’s and caridina’s

Thank you. They are Taiwan bee mischling shrimp as well as the red and white. Im actually getting 5 more from the breeder this week as the 10 I got ended up being 9 little ladies and 1 little boy :rofl: lucky for him but very exhausting!

I haven’t had any wild throw outs yet. But I’m hoping I get some like my last lot where I had wild types with tints of colour. They were stunning! The Taiwan bee mischlings which are the red and white and black and white are caridina’s and will only breed with their kind and the Tiger I have in...

Some of the little ones
