I feel like have seen stripes in other varieties before, but not in these. I would not think it was ALWAYS indicative of a hybrid. Regardless, all of my others are the iridescent blue that is typical.
Where's @Bob when you need him? His videos are what got me into rainbows to start with.
Sorry, missed this notification. As others have said. Looks like a hybrid, most likely with Goyder River Rainbow as they are commonly kept together since they are both on the smaller side.

Hello everyone 😃
I recently saw a post that made a claim that nitrates are less toxic in low pH. While that is certainly true with ammonia. It couldn't be further from the truth with nitrates. Nitrates become increasingly more deadly to fish/shrimp in lower pH. If your pH is low and your nitrates begin to rise. It will start to lower the blood oxygen content of fish/shrimp. Which will limit the fish/shrimps ability to transfer oxygen through its bloodstream, from its gills through the rest of its body. Your fish/shrimp will become progressively lethargic up until death if not corrected.
Now, we are talking pretty extreme levels of nitrates (80+ppm) with lower pH roughly 6.3 and below. Just wanting to correct some misinformation that might have got around 😃

Oddly enough my crystal red shrimp go crazy for golden pearls. It's my favorite fry food.

They website didnt actually have them in stock. Apparently that site sells fish they dont actually have. When you buy the fish they go and try to collect them. Terrible way to do business if you ask me.

Just to put some feedback out there, I'm looking forward to hearing @Bob on again. That episode was really enjoyable, and it seems like you two can stir up enough conversation for a bunch more episodes. Loved the content, guys!
Glad you enjoyed it. It was a lot of fun 😃

I loved the "randomness" of this podcast. I saw your itinerary at the start and tried my best to derail you haha. We seemed to cover a lot in a short period of time. Can't wait to do it again, in a studio, with video!

Another day wrapped up. Got some siding up on one of the new walls and two of the cargo containers were delivered.
Are you going to do any type of shelving? Or all pallets?

Thank you for the reminder in tonight's livestream lol. Gotta visit the forums!
Have a final batch this year that just hatched. Will probably pick back up again next spring. 🙂
Do you accept payment plans? $1 a month for 350 months with 0% apr? =D

I fell in love with these blue eyed rainbows recently and have been planning to pick up a trio (2m/1f) soon to keep in a 15 gal tank. I was doing some more research today and found that a couple of sites were recommending keeping large groups of 8-10 or more and other sites make no mention of this. If anyone has experience with these please let me know your thoughts on this.
They are a shoaling fish and need to be in groups. I wouldn't do less than 6 myself.

I have one of these, they are beautiful. You are correct, those are males guarding their caves trying to lure in a female.

Bob do you know if he buys it local or if it's something he buys in bulk and has sent to him? I can't make heads or tails out of cemex's web site
Some Home Depots sell it but its regional. We buy it local at a sand blasting company. It's by far my favorite substrate. Super clean right out of the bag, never have to rinse it.

I'm also waiting to know
It's a mix of Lapis luster sand made by cemex and crushed coral.

Is it necessary though even with it being fully stocked with plants ? And the shrimp should help clean the substrate
You would have to test to see if its necessary. My guess is probably not.

It was one of the best experiences i've gotten from this hobby/youtube. I have a hard time watching the video these days as Hutch was my best friend. However, in time i'll be forever grateful that it was documented and ill be able to watch it long after my memory has faded.
