Saving dying shrimps

Here is one tip for the month-

If you ever encounter dying shrimp colonies, meaning one or two shrimp die off one by one each day, its good to catch the remaining ones, adjust them well to another tank. Parameters need not be the same for the new tank.

The another tank that housed these remaining shrimp has to be a stable old tank.

Meanwhile please sterilize the problematic tank. How to sterilize ill post some steps in the future.

Cheers.

Yellows


I have been into yellow shrimp for quite some time. These shrimps are tough so to speak and their breeding rate is comparable to our dear cherries or sakuras and snowballs.

However one thing that keep me back is that their color tone never seems to improve. Faint and transparent-like of yellow seem like the norm for these yellow creatures. I have yet to able to have a single piece of thick shell yellowish like shrimp in my colony till this date.

Despite so, the yellow eggs are the one that make those females looks wonderful.
