shrimp

Howdy everybody, I was up late and decided to flash the ol flashlight on my aquarium to see who was working the Night Shift and I saw this little guy flash by me. It’s a tiny transparent shrimp. Can anyone ID the little fella? As a bonus assignment there is also another random critter he...

HELP! I started a new tank and added a melanurus wrasse, cleaner shrimp, and 8 blue leg hermit crabs, along with some other fish and coral. The shrimp was dead a few days later, and i’m now finding empty shells and hermit crab legs all over the sand bed. I know it was the wrasse, and I know...

Hey guys, I’m not sure if my cleaner shrimp is dead or not. Check out the video. Two days ago he was just standing there, motionless (apart from its antennae). Even when food was given, it didn’t move. I thought maybe it’s molting so that’s why he didn’t move. Yesterday, it was laying on its...

Not sure how I never noticed this guy but good or bad?

So I placed an order for some inverts and everything came as requested, but an extra bag was in the shipment and a shrimp I didn’t order. I enjoy all the different inverts, I think they’re mostly fun curious creatures so I don’t mind keeping it. The concern of course is compatibility with...

All kinds of fun stuff happening here! Looks dull and boring from far but I've been enjoying using the magnifying glass to find all the tiny critters. We started out by accidentally bringing home a Cone Shell Hermit crab inside this Auger shell, threw him in a bucket of water with a nice algae...

I keep watching videos on gobies and pistol shrimp where they mention that there are many species of gobies and shrimp that pair but only some pair with pistol shrimp, yet I can't seem to find any information on goby and shrimp symbiosis without it being a pistol shrimp. Does anyone know of any...

So I’ve had a bi colored angel for about 2 months now and it’s been fine other than nipping at my Kenya tree which I didn’t mind too much. Buh today I just put in a coral banded shrimp in and later I came back and I see the bi colored angelfish chasing all of my other gosh around. I don’t know...

I left my house for 2 days and came back to my tank with these guys in here. Anyone know what these are? The video isn’t very clear but they look like baby shrimps. If this helps, I turned off the lights during those two days to try and get rid of some of my algae and see how they would respond...

Hello everybody, I am setting up an IM Nuvo 10 gallon nano, and for my stocking I was wondering if I could keep 2 Randall’s pistols and a yasha Goby together. I’m not sure if the two pistols will fight? Most people it seems to work out for them but I want to make sure, thanks.

Hey guys. I have a 50 gallon tank I love the inverts. Starfish shrimp, snails, crabs. Can you over do it with inverts. I have two peppermint shrimp that come out at night. I want to get a cleaner shrimp also would love a fire shrimp to give a splash of red. I figure more cuc would balance it...

Do you guys think using Instant Ocean Sea Salt (Purple Bag) is ok to use for a yellow coral banded shrimp? Does it have enough iodine and other trace elements for it. I also have 2, 5 gallon buckets of Instant Ocean Reef Salts. I'm going to guess this one is better, but was just wondering if...

I've been growing copepods for a while in a standalone tank and was wondering, what is the easiest live food to culture? I was thinking maybe Brine shrimp might be easiest but was wondering what people think.

My Rose Bubble Tip Anemone has yet to have bubble like tentacles since I got it over a month ago. Shortly before receiving the anemone the previous owner told me it had split, mine being the mother. I got a fire red shrimp also about a month ago and it has molted three times already. Last...

Pistol Pete is for sale, cost of $0. My Goby jumped after my tank change months ago and i haven't been able to get another pair. If you're looking to pair him I'd add the two at the same time. Worked the first time! He's about 2"
