I just started with my first tank in November. what do you keep? i keep a 10 gallon planted community, 10 gallon coldwater danio tank, and a 75 gallon reef tank in the making(it still needs to be plumbed) also it won't be one tank for long 🙂 lol Edited December 9, 2020 by quirkylemon103 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edwards Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 I have 8 chili rasbora in a 14 gallon planted/aquascaped tank. I ordered some shrimp that will be in later this week. Been trying to wait for the plants to get more established before adding them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aqua Pets is Great Place. Jason Mason runs it. He is a great guy. They have a Facebook Page and usually get new fish on Thursdays. I have 18 Aquariums. I have a 150g, 125g, 120g, 90g, 75g, 46g, 2 40g's. 5 20's, 2 10's and 3 5g's. I am a tad obsessed. I was born in 1972 and have had fish since 1976. I have had fish since 1990.

Lemon Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 not sure about a time but i might be able to meet you at worlds underwater or aqua pets. but i can't go to either because i'm the only one that keeps fish in my family and my parents say no to buying stuff for yourself till after christmas and then i have birthday right after and it's the same rule 16 hours ago, DaneG said: Thank you, we would really enjoy seeing new stores and it's a nice drive down there.

TimeTraveler Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 Not close at all for me. I just joined as well somehow I never realized there was a forum. Is your profile pic a shrimp you have? Do you raise shrimp and if so how do you like them I was considering getting some cherry shrimp but may try to breed some bristlenose instead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aubrey Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 @TimeTraveler yes, my profile pic is a shrimp I raised and I like them very much. You should get some if you are interested in them, they are nice to watch. Also, they do well with Bristlenose which I have also bred. It's a nice combo.

TimeTraveler Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 How many shrimp do you get when you are starting I may do a second tank with them. What are you feeding yours and do you use crushed coral, ADA, or wondershell for them ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aubrey Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 @TimeTraveler I think I started with 10. I have fed all sorts of foods, but currently I am feeding : My cherries are in a community tank, so I'm sure they eat everything I feed that tank. If it wasn't so expensive I would keep feeding my shrimp only tank the Shrimp King Yummy Gummy, I would believe it if they said it had shrimp crack in it. I don't use crushed coral, ada, or wondershell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beaka Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 The only thing I know of the Ozarks is from the original movie Where The Red Fern Grows...but it made me WANT to know more of the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aubrey Posted December 17, 2020 Author Share Posted December 17, 2020 @TimeTraveler it's great! Everyone likes it from my plecos and shrimp to my pygmy corys and rice fish. My plecos will ignore their wafers and rasp on the fry food that gets caught in the hair algae. You can see in the picture it's almost empty, but I made sure to order more when it got about halfway down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aubrey Posted December 17, 2020 Author Share Posted December 17, 2020 @quirkylemon103 I hardly ever see mine and I have like 15-20 in a 12 long. I have noticed that they come out around the dawn and dusk cycle more often than any other time and that's usually when I feed the tank. I can't really recommend another food because mine didn't spawn until I started using the fry food, but that could be a coincidence. I was feeding sera onip tabs previously and would see them forage through what made it to the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aubrey Posted December 17, 2020 Author Share Posted December 17, 2020 @quirkylemon103 I'm not an expert on them, but I have not observed much, if any, increase in activity from mine when I feed. Mine spend most of their time hiding out huddled up in the roots of a crypt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pknsmasher Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Hello, I am also close to this area, just across the state line in MO, currently. I've been to Aquapets myself. I currently have and raise Bloody Mary shrimp, Sunkist, have a huge colony of Blue dreams, and am currently taking a crack at Amanos and Red Racer Nerite snails. Anyone with suggestions on the last two are welcome to offer suggestions. Thanks and nice meeting you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
