H.K.Luterman Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 I keep pink ramshorns in all my tanks. I love them so much, they have their own 5 gallon. I had more shrimp a few years ago, but all I have left now are these wild-types that USED to be blue dream neocaridina. X3 (I was too lazy to keep on top of culling and now this is what they are!) I'm thinking of getting some nice shrimp soon. I've had blue and yellow. Maybe it's time for some nice reds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Posted December 13, 2020 Author Share Posted December 13, 2020 I needed some cherry shrimp and I was pretty sure some must have gone down the standpipe in the big tank out to the outdoor pool. It has been cold here recently so I had to bust through ice on the top to put a net in. Yep, cherry shrimp were outside, underneath ice and doing just fine. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Posted December 27, 2020 Author Share Posted December 27, 2020 I have always wondered what shrimp eat other than the food I provide. This shrimp seems to be picking the surface of this bladderwort plant clean? So it is eating biofilm? No, no please don't eat my beneficial bacteria.🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Posted January 3, 2021 Author Share Posted January 3, 2021 I maintain several aquariums that have various invertebrates that often end up as live food. One of those invertebrates are glassworms in the genus Chaoborus. Sometimes they are called phantom midge larvae. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted January 3, 2021 Author Share Posted January 3, 2021 Also in the same aquarium as the glassworm above is this big dragonfly larva from the genus Anax in the Aeshnidae family and because this bad boy is about 2" long it is more likely to be the predator than the prey. This should give @Alesha nightmares for a while.🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I have another one of these critters, too, in my 20 long. I tried unsuccessfully to capture it, then haven't spotted it for a while. This is the tank with the red-tail botia, so I'm hoping maybe Peek-a-Boo ate the creepy thing! And really it wouldn't be so disgusting if I hadn't read that they actually breathe through their butt. Now, c'mon, that's just revolting! 😝 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
