Planaria - A how to get rid off!
Panacur and Flubenol are medicaments used for de-worming cats, dogs and other pets. Due to the lack of missing drugs for fish tanks, shrimp keepers use them to get rid of planaria. Planaria are limped worms with triangular heading and can harm shrimp and their offspring. If your shrimplets always disappear after a few days, planaria may be the reason. They even attack full grown shrimp

Here is a step by step guide using Panacur:
-Try to catch as lot of planaria as possible with a planaria trap and remove them from the tank. Remove snails before using Panacur, also.
-Do your weekly water change (20-30%) and remove as much detritus (=biological waste) as you can.
-Add the medicament. Prefer to do under-dosing more than overdosing! One pill Panacur KH 250 (with 250 mg Fenbendazol) is sufficient for 432 liters. Check out the table below and only calculate with the nett water volume of your tank!
-After 5 days change 30-50% water and repeat the treatment and dose Panacur second time.
-After 5 days, do another water change (30-50%) and filter with carbon to extract the leftover of medicament.

Added on October 21, 2011, 10:33 amhehee.. sulawesi is a bit different




for more sulawesi species.. -> http://www.guitarfish.org/2008/02/07/new-sulawesi-shrimp

WATER PARAMETERS
Parameters should be almost exactly as follows:

The best way to achieve these parameters is to use water with the correct GH, the PH and KH of the source water not being important as the crushed coral will take care of that. The substrate should be crushed coral. Many people mix the coral with sand because it looks a lot better that way. You also need to use water with the correct parameters for water changes, so you will need some kind of bucket with crushed coral, a heater and an air stone in it. These shrimp are so sensitive it is not recommended to do any more than 10 percent water change at a time. This should be plenty however as you shouldn't be keeping these with any fish.

Water Parameters Towuti Lake - Harlequins, Redlines, Red Orchids, Yellow cheeks and many others are from here
Temperature average: 30 C


Water Parameters Mantano Lake - Where Cardinals are from

If really 100% moss..and no shrimp..normal gravel will do..white or black is ur preference maybe u need to dose some fert once in a while

Some will use amazonia or other soil for moss tank because they keeping RCS or CRS...

some might say why i cannot use my ceiling light bcoz moss are low light plants and my ceiling light is 24 W worrr..

u need to understand the relationship btw distance of light source and tank, tank depth, light penetration etc etc

generally :
• Only 73% of the surface light reaches a depth of 1 centimeter (less than a half inch)
• Only 44.5% of the surface light reaches a depth of 1 meter (3.3 feet)

and now imagine ur ceiling light which is around 2 or 3 meter high .. plus all the light lost when travelling through the water
