You reduce tds in large number in one shot? Better dont. Have to gradually reduce or increase.
What shrimp you having problem? Fire red?

Check this one out..

Nice one!

woh... 50 in one shot is alot, safest is 10 tds per day. yes, it affected them.
You change water with RO water, large amount?

Tzuen got a nice one, color is duo-tone, eyes is white if my eyes is not blur looking at the picture.

i keep mine at 350~400

No prob... been busy and away recently too.

Glad to know your shrimplets are doing well and there's new ones too
My shrimplets are growing too... although it's very hard to spot them.

I need more shrimps!

My malayans seem to be nocturnal... out in the open scavenging for food when light is off. They really love spinach... but not so much for the reds.

Can you show your whole tank. Looks nice

Haha... thanks for the compliments but it's not nice

FTS will come once I clean up those in/outflow pipes and plants are nicer...

No need shy shy lah.

Very very shy leh...

Well at least wait till I clean it up a little... been away often lately couldn't get to do intensive cleaning. Will take a FTS when can after that... hopefully I get to do it this weekend

Speaking of which.. just added 3 very tiny grass like plant (dunno the name). It's not even those dense type of grass and they were picked right from LFS shrimp tank without those plastic pot.

Luckily I rinse it very thoroughly..found 2 damselfly, 3 planaria and 1 unidentified insect.

I've got some white thin worms wriggling around in my tank (not planaria) & damn difficult to catch it. Got some tiny white bugs scurrying around too. Don't know where those came from.

Hopefully none of it will disturb my shrimps. Been some time now since I noticed it. Bugs are so tiny I can't even take a pic of it. Look kinda like aphids though...hmmm...

Planaria and damsfly. Your lfs really 'teruk'. Have this fearsome two also dare to sell you the plants.
Better dont put in your tank first. Maybe still got eggs stick to it.

Too late.. cucuk inside di. But I did my best to wash those freakin expensive grass.

I will usually buy whenever possible from the more "local" type LFS but this chain store one is like 2 minutes walking distance from home and open 24 hours.

i have plenty of those bugs in my tank.

Oh god! That horror name....damselfly....lol...i got rid of it

The gallery is open this weekend....25% off...slightly higher than the last time.

everyone have that , only to be discover sooner or later, if your water is bad, none of them will appear.

Damn.. my tank currently bug free
