Be carefull with small/feeder/ghost shrimp...

They disturb my cray during molting, thus resulting in fail molt and die

Omg! Cheng, you sure cannot believe your eyes. My red and white really cross breed!! Check out the photos guys!
*
They are same species/genus which is procambarus and same sub-species which is clarkii

One is procambarus clarkii
Another one procambarus clarkii sp white

Thats why cross breed possible with same species

But like my dwarf shrimp, if same species cross breed, the result is not nice... Like cherry (neocaridina) cross with yellow (neocaridina) will produce wild cherry with transparent and no color baby...

Will see the result of crays... Hope it sucess... Cant wait... Heheh... Me my marmorkrebs always drop her egg... Hrmmm...

Many pet shop here no stock for small shrimp. Any recommendations? Btw, can I add in algae eater to clean my tank? Will they live under pressure since my crayfish might always in hunting mode playing around with them, making them no life at all. Lol

I try to use shrimp (feeder) as algae/leftover cleaner, but the posses threat to my crayfish during molting, when the cray still soft, they munch on the cray. Pleco also like that...

Hi fren, you may try look for Crayfish Malaysia from FB.

Been to their shop before. got many variety of choice. Beside electric blue, you may also consider for the ghost line.

It look quite nice to me, the shop owner told me that the color will keep change after every mold.

Hope this help u.

they a little bit over priced since

Penang, 1 pcs RM 20, a pair RM 40
Crayfish Malaysia, a pair RM 80, 1 pcs RM 40 (almost double)

I try to find alternative other than crayfish Malaysia, if none, then need to get from them.

Seriously? such a mini shrimp can possess threat to crayfish which is hundred times of their size during molting. Meanwhile, where to get them in cup of RM1?
*
At first im not believe but 2 of my lovely red swamp ended like that... It is because, during molting (when they out of old exoskeleton) they do it at open space, which is, 10++ ghost shrimp attack them... Thus resulting the fail molt, some leg not properly detached... After some time, i saw ghost shrmps picking the crayfish, yes its still soft...

Ghost shrimp unlike others dwarf shrimp... They are violent and eat whatever they can reach... 'Pembangkai'...

Its not 1 mug cup... Just small red cup...

For me no more ghost shrimp, plus, my cray seem not interested with then since they are fast swimmer..
