Dripping skrimp as I watch your video! Gotta love it 😀.

[@PoseidonsPets]

That’s the best! What did you get?

[@mariosshrimptanks]

Those shrimp are stunning. Great video to watch

[@PoseidonsPets]

Thanks Mario, I’m excited to see how this tank goes!

[@mariosshrimptanks]

@@PoseidonsPets IMO u should keep that little experiment going. Be patient and see what small ecosystem will be created after some time. Just my 2 cents

[@marksterlson]

Yeah, keep it going, it will be interesting to see

[@PoseidonsPets]

We will see how it goes! Been feeding them mulberry leaves and the occasional pellet

[@PoseidonsPets]

Thanks! Im happy with them!

@@PoseidonsPets were they expensive?

[@PoseidonsPets]

@@_invertico_ they weren’t too bad, think it was $60 or $70! For $10

[@_invertico_]

@@PoseidonsPets nice but in Germany they are expensive

[@PoseidonsPets]

@@_invertico_ he had good prices for most stuff. They are expensive here depending on grading

Sweet I love my snails. My rabbit snails are in a blue neo tank with sand, wisteria, and pointed spear. They arent bothering those right now. My mystery snails did eat all my salvinia if there some of that in there.

[@PoseidonsPets]

The mystery snails love floating plants! They’ll eat a bucket of duckweed in no time

Have you ever tried to pull off Caridina without using active substrate? I spent a year on a 55 Gallon using dirt and wood. Took a bunch of Birch wood to keep all my carbohydrates dissolved.

[@PoseidonsPets]

As long as you can keep the ph stable you can do it. If I’m not mistaken they come from rivers with limestone that buffers the ph down, that’s why the need for lower ph

[@yourtap]

@@PoseidonsPets the tannins from the wood keep it acidic. To get it below a PH of 6. I added bags of peat moss to the filter. They're on their second generation so far. Hundreds of assorted Bee Shrimp! Enjoy watching your shrimp! 🤙

[@MrsShocoTaco]

I now know not to buy rabbit snails 😳 Ty for the info !

[@PoseidonsPets]

They are cool snails but can munch on some of your plants.
