Re: [GSAS-board] shrimp $



OK, I am going to eject the oyster shell and put in a cuttlebone ASAP. After I have let it steep for a while, I will try my luck again!

I highly recommend the cuttlebone.  Before cuttlebone, we did the same as you Matt -- did nothing but kill shrimp.  Now post-cuttlebone, we've reproduced the six yellow shrimp we got from Shango into three dozen.

Thanks Cuttlebone!

I have the exact opposite luck. The last cherry shrimp I got from Susan had all vanished after 48 hours. It was an established
tank with a betta in it. I didn't have cuttlebone, but I did have an oyster shell in the filter.

The betta went crazy trying to eat them too, which was a big surprise. I am sure the stress did not help.

     they populate.

Subject: [GSAS-board] shrimp $

I second the notion to buy some shrimp
if Jimmy can do it that's great
otherwise Kevin?
$20-50
I assume Susan and Cliff etc will be selling theirs too
 and
any ideas for dinner?
