mind share where to get yellow shrimp ?

Sorry, its not yellow shrimp, its orange shrimp heheh . I get it from NA

i like it... the ball look so nice... hope mine can grow till like that though.

Thank for sharing ranchu
After using Nutrafin Aquaplus, it seem that the shrimp is happier now

Yeah, our tap water isn't great. I mean, every weekend when I wash my outdoor water filter, the stuff that comes out looks like black coffee or milo.

KL AREA?

My house water literally smell like rust...

Lots of 'iron' ?

new tank coming.. 60x40x40cm..
but only next week i get the plant.. so today just fill the tank to check for leakage.. collect wood and rock..

Have fun!

BBA HELP T_T !! RARWWW is that ok if i put active carbon in my filter for a week in order to remove the excessive phosphorus and i found out my water PH 4.0 =.= even straight from tap water... im using Sera PH tester...

actaully u dont have to put the active carbon into ur filter. just dip into the aquarium lo. then u wont disturb the filter and the live bacteria in it hehe

jus came back from melaka... visited my dad's fren's hse.. there's a 3feet tank quite deep id say 2 or 2.5ft... cheap common plants all on DW one(not criticising la~) moss grow vry wild and bushy... all the fish hiding one talked wif my dad's fren for some time abt the aquarium... very POISONING... thinking of getting a new tank soon...

For the last time guys. TARGET ATTACK THE BBA WITH EXCEL CONCENTRATED WITH SYRINGE WITH FILTERS OFF. sure to kill em.

And I still dare say it. Easiest algae to take care of.

Drew

Chuppy @ try not using Excel see how... im trying to know what is the problem will caused BBA come... and my glosso keep on melting....

my shrimp tank overly dense with moss... until all my shrimp gone missing... wanna clear of some and see how many shrimps still surviving inside...

btw, i got problems with snail pest in my shrimp tank... any snail-eating fish i can intro to control it while not harming the shrimps??..

any fish in the right mind would wanna eat shrimps if they can eat snails
