I’m not gonna know what to do with them all!

Hmmm 24 from 10 I reckon 40 put myself out here on my breeding skills with no other fish in there plenty of cover and moss I’m hopeful of 40 that would be amazing!

Going to get 6 more cherries and see how many I have by October! Any guesses

Just 4 cherries living the life 5 gallons each

Can you keep females together easily “?

Ohhh I thought they were male elephant ear bettas my bad

3 male bettas in the same tank

Hey guyd went into my local pet store and saw this in the store, is this completely wrong or am I being an idiot .

Could be slightly overstocked?

Atm my 20 gallon with only 4 cherry shrimp in it does look rather sad I must say :(

I’ve also found a sealed box which I’ve put a pillow in and the air pump on top? Is this okay or is it a hazard

At the minute I’ve only got 4 cherry shrimp In the tank. At night could I turn the sponge filter off, it is way too load and is overkill even with the steps I’ve taken. I’ve got a spare hang on back which I ll replace for tonight and from tommorow I’ve got a new hang on back filter coming

I can’t hear myself think at the minute with these air bubbles. I physically can’t keep this in here it’s ridiculously loud ! It sounds like heavy boiling water

For me it’s the loud bubble sound which is just too loud at the minute

Perfect will try now

It does it’s brand new bought today. I managed to put it in a large box with some towels and it has really helped with the humming. Now I need to work out how to reduce the bubbles from the air pump any help?

Hey guys, I recently bought an air pump named as silenced for my shrimp tank with my sponge filter. However it is ridiculously loud and there is o way I can slee with that much sound. Does anyone have any ideas on how to reduce the sound

do you have any photos of your tanks. You seem so organised and on it I’d love to see what you end up producing can only imagine woukd be inspiration

I’m suprised they survived with pearl gouramis! I’ve currently got them with Pygmy cories and corys :)

Yeah but yeah eventually I will merge, what fish do you keep them with?

Perfect and is that every day or every other day?

I love albino Bristlenose pleco. You could even get 2 in a tank that size especially ifnlots of wood hiding places etc. I’d suggest maybe a huge shoal of something. Neon tetras etc if you don’t want Cichlid tanks could have like 40 easily

Either algae wafers or flakes

I’ve always wanted them and then people on this forum suggested I shouldn’t lol! I guess it’s all at own risk I’m still really intrigued by them so if it’s worked for you before who are we to suggest otherwise :)

I’d personally stick with one bottom dweller especially if you’re planning to add an algae eater as well. I’d suggest otocinclus and kuhli loaches for example but look into Water parameter requirements. Ppl often suggest staying away from dwarf gouramis due to DGD but do at your own risk :)

I feel unless I overfeed I shouldn’t see any great ammonia spike. How much would you suggest to feed the 10 shrimp a day?

Yeah their is fake plants moved other from other tank once again. I will move everything other tommorow I’m fairly sure should be fine due to their tiny If not can alwuas just move them back into original tank!

Would moving ornaments from my other tank, as well as java moss already in that tank be beneficial?

I can add java moss and Christmas’s moss to the tank, apart from that I’m not planning on adding too many plants to the tank as of yet.

Hey guys, I’ve had my tank cycling for a week, however have added 60% of water from my other tank, as well as adding gravel from my established tank and tetrasafeplus. All my readings are 0ppm in regards to nitrates nitrites and ammonia and only shrimp are being added. Is it too soon to add the...

Yeah, I’ve learnt about genetics a bit so understand roughly the likelihood of brown shrimp. Hopefully with reds and yellow the predominant will be orange/ reds and yellow. I may give it a go! Nothing wrong w brown shrimp just not the best looking

This may sound stupid but would you only keep one colour? I was considering yellow and red hoping the offspring would sometimes be orange sure it would end up being brown tho

Like flakes? Algae wafers?

Saw someone else doing this so seems quite popular ! I’m Wondering what should I feed them as they are so small

Okay perf thank you. Also how long does it take for them to breed usually? Don’t know if this is something you’ve ever done before

Shrimps bioload is notoriously low so surely unless I overfeed them there’s little no chance of a mass ammonia buildup no?

50% weekly changes for 10 shrimp? Are you sure feels a bit overkill

Hey guys, I’ve decided to move my ten cherry shrimps into my spare 20 gallon so that they can feel completely safe and just have a huge unusued tank for themselves which hopefully shouldn’t be too much to deal with for me in terms of constant maintenance. I was wondering what filtering I should...

Okay thank you :)
