    Fish catching tips!

    Here is my strategy.. 1. Be patient 2. Lower the water level (Maybe try during PWC) 3. Use two medium size nets (PENN PLAX INFRA-RED AQUARIUM NETS work much better than other nets.) http://www.kensfish.com/netspennplaxinfrared.html 4. Be patient again :)

    Snowball + RCS = ??

    I'd like to raise more than one kind of shrimp and want to start snowball with our RCS. I heard that snowball could cross breed with RCS. Do I expect to have hybrid of RCS & snowball if I mix them together in 20G planted? I prefer not to have RCS & snowball hybrid. Does anyone know link...

    Melafix for damaged fins?

    We have the similar case before. I just follow the advice from CT & MSjinkzd. I did 50% WC followed by 15% every other day for 10days. (No Melafix treatment) It's been less than a month and I cannot even distinguish which one has the damaged fin before. (If your case is fin rot then, it is...

    Help!!! Guppy Grass in the filter intake

    We plan to maintain guppy population with least effort. So, We recently got some guppy grass for the hiding place for fries. (20G Bare bottom with guppy grass) When we put guppy grass in the tank, a lot of them blocked the HOB intake. I think it is going to slow down flow & filter's...

    Can I move berried RC shrimp?

    We put RCS in the 20G with guppy frys & corys about 1-2 months ago. Two of our RCS are berried and at least one of them is imminent. We have not much options. Leave as it is OR move those Two RCS to breeder box. What should I do?
