Beardedbillygoat1975 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I am contemplating instead of putting in Neocaridina in my 11 g bowl putting in Caridina. I have fallen head over heels for Caridina particularly the tiger species - raccoons, red and tangerine tigers as well as aura blues. I’ve heard they are hardier then crystals and taibees. My thought is to have a mixed tiger colony to get interesting colors and patterns and then breed those out. I love my Neocaridina tanks (have golden back and blue dreams, had bloody Mary’s before) but there’s the challenge of doing it. I’m going to invest in an RODI system, figure I’ll reminerlize or was considering using 1/2 rodi half tap as my water is ph7, tds 60-80, kh 0-1 a d gh 2-4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do get done, I’d enjoy following a journal or something similar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
