It was a local store about two hours from home. Only ever ordered fish online twice and only happy with one.

They’re a little harder but you can definitely do it. Get just one for your 26 gallon and they do well in typical tropical environments but they need a place to sit infront if the water flow and you’ll have to grind food into a powder to make sure he has enough pull from the water column. You...

Got my two bamboo shrimp about three months ago and sadly one died but I think it had a parasite since he was less active and hid more but the larger Bamboo shrimp is doing great. It’s constantly either picking food off the sand or perched infront of my canister filter. He had a stretch of only...

Update: Confirmed pair!! I didn’t take a picture or video of it but my female ram laid eggs and they both were protecting them fiercely but my half banded spiny eel ate the eggs. The rams are just too small to fight him off right now but if anyone in Alabama would want some of the offspring I’ll...

Both bamboo shrimp ended up growing algae, one being covered pretty well, and they both molted fine in case anyone from the future is worrying about algae on their bamboo shrimp.

Thank you! If you setup that tank for them, you’ll love it. They just have great personalities and morphs. I’m hoping so. I’ve always wanted to breed different fish but have only been successful with shrimp and snails so far.

I’ve kept a single GBR in a community before but he was a meaner GBR so I had to sell the female. He lasted over a year until ich got most of the tank a while back. I rescaped and went with 5 millennium rainbow fish, 8 black skirt tetras, around 10 otocinclus, 2 bamboo shrimp and a half banded...

As everyone’s saying, it looks like a tumor. My dads betta had one. The bad news is that there’s not much you can do besides keep him healthy, but the good news is that it can live a good quality life as long as the tumor isn’t too big.

Awesome! Maybe your tank is just better suited for vampire shrimp. Hob filters could work but they typically only get good flow at the top. My bamboo shrimp spend most of the day perched directly infront of my fluval 307 canister filter.

I know I’m a bit late on this but still gonna give a little input. You might need to do something to increase water flow. A small air stone under a sturdy plant should be enough. Your water looks crystal clear too so you might need to supplement food. Crushing normal flake food into a powder has...

I’ve had my 2 bamboo shrimp for a few weeks and they’re doing fantastic. They spend most of their time perched in what I think is a giant crypt right infront of the filter output, but I’ve noticed the smaller, brown bamboo shrimp growing algae on it. He acts completely normal so I’m just...

Everything I’ve read says a 20g tank with wood sticking out should be fine for a newt but more research is gonna be done before I get whatever. Right now the most I have is a spare 10g and ideas of buying a 20g instead so I need cool ideas.

I’ve looked into golden wonder killis before and love them so a 20 with one really might be the way.

I might have to give honey gourami a try. I’ve seen some red honeys that are really pretty but I currently keep a dwarf gourami in my 55 gallon.

I want to setup a third aquarium but I’m stuck on how to set it up. All I know is that I want to showcase a really cool and interesting species with a scape different from my current 2 tanks. Current thoughts is one of three; a 10g with a scarlet badis or a 20g with a black figure 8 puffer or a...
