Hey Everyone, stumbled on this forum a while ago but have now decided to actually join up. i started out with a few small planted terrariums and now ive moved on to a small starter aquarium with some shirmps and guppies and tetras. I also have a paludarium which i have been less successful with and will be looking at redoing it soon.
Sooo, since my initial post i had an event where something went horribly wrong and lost a couple of fish and shrimp. So this forced me to redo my tank. And since then things are going great. Bought a couple more guppies, and a couple more tetras so my remaining tetras wouldnt be lonely. Now things are kicking off as have had 2 shrimps who got berried and gave birth, a third will soon give birth as well and on monday my guppie gave birth to a bunhc of guppies... And last night i discovered one of my amano shrimps are also berried... Here is what my setup currently looks like - i am in the process of getting a bigger tank as this one will no longer work for the amount of breeding that is happening.
Tank is looking good. Unfortunately the baby Amano shrimp won't survive in freshwater they need brackish water to survive. What size tank are you upgrading to next?
Yeah, im looking to see if i want to even attempt to see if i can manage to get them to hatch and perhaps survive, but it looks quite daunting. Im looking at getting between a 40l and 60l tank. i am not planning on breeding anymore fish, as the guppies were an accident. the original plan was just shrimp. So i will keep the smaller tank for the baby guppies and then i will try and move them around so there are no males with females...
