Will he get eaten!!!

lol what do you think?!

 

It might from the mollies, but I may be wrong.

I think he'll be ok.. we have some amanos in with platys and they're doing fine. I just couldn't resist the last option I the poll.

 

lol which is why I allowed 2 votes.... pretty much JUST for you.

 

lol.. it's ok, I only needed 1.

You allowed 2? Could you have said that?
Tom

 

lol! It says RIGHT under the question.. "You may only select two options"

 

lol.. not here, it doesn't.

 

oh my gosh.. look.

"Question: Will my new ghost shrimp get eaten? (In with 1 gourami, 3 balloon mollies, 2 guppies, 3 otos..)
You may only select up to 2 options. "

BEFORE you vote.. this is what you see. AFTER you vote, it takes away the option statement because it's null..

 

ah.. well I already voted.. sorry, i'm a rebel without a clue.

 

Well, I bought him!!!

He's SOOO tiny... I also bought some more plants and some plant fertilizer stuff. He just kind of floats around. He's also pretty fast, I think he'll survive. I've provided PLENTY of hiding places within the plants and the other decor in there so I think he'll make it!! Now I need a name for him.

I chickened out. Didn't buy the frozen blood worms. I bought the freeze dried ones and freese dried brine shrimp.

 

Well I'm not sure, ???but I hope not.

 

lol He's so cute!! Any ideas for a name?

How about Dave!?! LOL.. Maybe something fitting for a shrimp -- goliath, killer, etc?

 

how big is this ghost shrimp. If hes full I size I doubt he will get eaten. mollies are peacefull fish so are guppies and ottos and goryamies.

 

He is little... but about an inch long, just really tiny looking...

They seemingly left him alone today... but he hid a lot. He's a fast little guy though, when they get too close for comfort, he just takes off! I went out for the night (to see the Simpsons movie and a little late night date :-*) and I came back to see him swimming around, happy as a clam! haha So we'll see.

And oh yeah, I've named him Ace.

 

I voted that your'e sick! But that's what we love about ya

 

lol I figured that would be the winner!!

 

Oooooh, only just, though. You're obviously not on your own on that one!

 

well who didn't voted that u were sick I no I did lol

Peace Out Callum!

 

guess i'm the only one that didnt! I hope he'l be fine though.

 

lol.. well where's some pics of Ace? how do we know you didn't put him in some fried rice for dinner? :;jk

that's cool that he's not become dinner and I hope it works out good for little Ace.

 

I'm not so sure about him being alive. Two nights ago I saw him for a brief second.... but as of today I have no evidence he is dead or alive!!!

 

...with fava beans and a nice chianti

 

I voted he'd be fine. have you tried catching a ghost shrimp! they are super fast critters and the fish you have are all peaceful and won't be nr the bottom of the tank anyway except the cories who won't bother anyone! let us know if you've found him. maybe he's gone into hiding to shed his coat. they can disappear for a few days while they do this. don't be alarmed if you see his casing floating around the tank, he's prob hiding in a plant somewhere!

 

I'm still keeping an eye for him. Last time I saw him was two nights ago.

Does anyone know if they are nocturnal?

 

they're supposed to be, I think and I do believe they'll feel more comfortable moving around when it's dark.

 

We just bought some ghost shrimps yesterday, and we have hope that it'll go OK, but we'll see. No sign of them this morning, but these guys are soooo good at hiding.

 

yea, I find our shrimp's fav. hiding spot in the platy tank is inside the anemone decoration.. with the marbles substrata, they can get up inside it easy enough.

 

Day 5... haven't seen him since day 2-3 I think. But I was away for the past few days.

I don't know... :'(

 

he could be hiding well.. I thought for sure we had lost 1 in the platy tank, but eventually found him.

 

lol good to know.

I ordered a little tiny night LED light.. so maybe I'll see him at night!!

 

he could be inside a decoration too.. ours hide inside the base of the anemone so you'd never know we had shrimp in there except when I clean the tank and take everything out. I have to be sure they're all out first too.

 

I woke up and found him today!!! YAY!!!!!!

I'm so happy!

 

So when I found him, I snapped a picture with my cell phone!! lol it's not great quality but if I tried to get the real camera I would have lost him! I lost him already...

 

no if you keep all your fishes well feed

 

mine aren't nocturnal. they come out whenever food goes in the tank...not all at once, but a few will and will "swim" up the plants to grab it!!

that's how ours are, but they've learned now that I'll put a piece of wafer under the anemone rock so we don't see them unless i'm cleaning the tank.

 

hahaha ever since I posted the picture of him... the "YES" vote has gone up a ton!

 

I got a new fish
