the breeding booster? does it realli works?

Hey BW Ebi Bacter - BEBI is one product not two, just use a small mug/cup , mix BEBI with tank or aged water before pour in the tank,
i already use up half bottle , yes it work , my shrimp & shrimplets going crazy for it , the best is that it also help decompose organic waste
and won't pollute your water.
I use this alternatively with mosura bio-plus and shirakura baby food. Actually all three does almost the same things, juts itchy hand buy
all three.

L3()nZ @ BEBI is shrimplets food , you want breeding aid get BW Dance & Vigor , mosura Eros & Mosura Gravidas.

how much or those BW? trying desperately to bringing my RCS numbers back up again... HOw much at NA?

Breeding aid really work? Then i should get some

U can buy from a guy name sazuka at petstore section..

owh..sazuka he got a lot of good stuffs though but postage cost more expensive than i can get in KL

im at KL too..he got fren now at KL so u can cod with him..but dunno until when

NA not selling Borneowild shrimps stuff, they only sell borneowild lily pipe & accessories.
The only LFS i know in KL that sell some(not full range) Borneowild shrimps food/supplements are 88 petsmart and Aqua World(damansara).
for starter food you can get the BW - Grow(RM35-20g) & BW - Bebi(around RM40) and for some breeding aid - BW - Vigor(RM60++).
Shirakura food - minima breeder Ebi Dama & baby shrimp food Chi Ebi only Aqua World have them cost around rm50++ per pack.

bro arrow, looks like ure opening your own little shrimps farm/shop.

ABOVE all that, which will u recommend me to have for a starter. i rearing rcs currently. doing reasearch first before playing with crystal.hehehe. can you help me listing things for starter. thanks. alot bro arrow

actually this was taken from another forum members opinion but i do agree with him , those are:

If I were starting I'd go with the below:

Shield (this will keep the water and shrimp healthy...without good water you will have deaths)
Stout (this makes the shells really shiny and thick looking...healthy shell means healthy shrimp overall)
Grow (this is a "complete" shrimp diet unlike others that BorneoWild carries which are just supplementals)
Barley (I'd add this supplemental food too since it's REALLY cheap and it helps with water quality...you get get by without this but it's so cheap that you might as well add it to the cart).
Bebi (this i prefer cos it help build up bio-film and help decompose organic waste and won't pollute water , also useful when you have shrimplets
RCS really fast in breeding)
Mosura Old Sea Mud ( (help in mineralization and decompose of waste)

For RCS without breeding aid they also breed like crazy, think i have like >100 rcs/red fire shrimplets in my 2 feet tank. My xmas moss tree like
a Christmas tree during the feeding time when all of them clling on the tree top.

In shrimps keeping especially CRS , it is very very important to keep tank water clean(your water look crystal clear doesn't mean it is clean), that is lot of waste hidden in the soil substrate you can't see and shrimps like to dig the soil for food, that why it is important to have shrimps food/supplement that can help in developing good bacteria and decompose of organic waste.

BW Grow & BW Bebi you can get from 88 petsmart , but BW Stout they currently out of stock
BW Shield & BW Barley you have to get it online through Aquashop in lelong.com.my.
You can just get all from aquashop since it cheaper even with the RM10 shipping charge.

i agree with aquashop.. they got tons of stuffs
their plants to are alot

THANKS SO MUCH. you are really2 a helpful person. may god bless you.

anyways, do crs live in room temperature?

I mean, with those breeding aid product. Does it really enhance the breeding progress? I tried Mosura Gravidas, dun see much effects.

CRS won't survive in KL malaysia room temperature(29-31'c++) unless you staying in cameroon or genting. The lower/lowest grade CRS
can endure till 27'c - 28'c if i not mistaken but at this temperature they hardly breed, if breed shrimplets hardly survive.
CRS best keep at 23'c-25'c range, i keep mine at 24'c, now 5 CRS berried, 1 give birth , shrimplets still survive after 6 days but hopefully
they can make it this round, previous 2 round all CRS shrimplets died within 3 days.

If you really want to keep CRS , recommend you get a chiller , Advance Reef(penang) distributor for Hailea brand chiller currently in Kenanga Mall near
Pudu Jail KL having a booth display , they have 2 unit of hailea chiller selling at 20% discount, get the HS-28A model if your tank is less then 400l in size. (but don't know still available or not) , i saw it yesterday at 6pm. the event is from 19 april(yesterday to 22 april(sunday).
refer -> http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2314122

oh i see. thanks a lot for your precious info bro.

Yes, i think they do, beside Mosura Gravidas, i also use BW Vigor and Mosura Eros(rarely cos overdose have adverse effect), but you need time for it to took effect, but other necessary criteria must be meet first especially CRS(water temperature etc) , but if only for RCS then it much easier , i setup one new 1 feet (36l tank, air cooled max 28'c) . dump in 15 selected high red rcs(baby from berried fire red i brought), around 1cm length, feed them Vigor and gravidas as part of the food routine, a mths plus now 4 berried. and another 5 have eggs in the ovaries.
Before that i never have a berried RCS in my first 5 mths rearing them and i have to resort to find/buy berried fire red in LFS(recalling the experience , it was very exciting & chaotic as those berried one normally getting snapped up once stock arrive) so have to take leave just to get it. phew...
My 5 crs also berried now.

Nice reviews. So far my tanks are all kept in air conditioned room. Fire red no problem...they are blooming like mad. But as for the CRS, they somehow stopped berring for some reasons. I ve tried all the Mosura and Borneo product for breeding shrimps. So far still nt much effect. Ph stable, temperature stable at 25-26. Wonder if it's the trace elements issue...but one thing for sure...all my Fire Yellow and sunkist cant seems to survive...dunno y. Any one has any idea? Fire red surviving but fire yellow or sunkist dying issue...sifu sifu pls give some advise.

Did you all inject CO2 in CRS tank?read a lot of article and blog all said CO2 is the main killer of CRS is that true?

You try lower your temperature to 24'C, mine last time at 25'c , none of my CRS berried as well and those CRS who was brought berried and giving birth, the CRS shrimplets died after 3 days.
Fire yellow i like, can pm me the breeder you get it from, outside price selling more then normal crs.
Sunkist shrimps..ummm it is like orange or diiferent? , google result showing sunkist like an orange shrimps, you mind take a picture of
your sunkist shrimps and post here for a look?

---

Added on April 21, 2012, 4:04 amHave some truth in it cos CO2 will lower water PH, sensitive shrimps like CRS can't tolerate PH swing especially your tank is small and not enough
PH buffer.
That why i remove my CO2 system and convert to shrimps tank.
Oh, remove SAE if have one in your shrimps tank , those sucker is shrimps killer especially when your shrimps just molt. Otto is safe though.
