Hi, Well, I have been off the list for a long time, and lurking for a bit now, so this thread may have come up and I missed it. Now that I am getting back in the hobby more now, I am feeding more brine shrimp. I have some apistograma baenchi, and tanicara candidi (aka apist. wisemanni), and Lake Tanganyka killis...and LIVE PIPE FISH. Well I have been feeding tons of brine for several months (before July but definitely daily since) and I have ONE, ONLY ONE tank with hydra. Interesting it isn't in all of them, which makes me think it came in with some of the plants or shrimp in that tank. So how would you guys treat a tank with SHRIMP, PIPE FISH and HYDRA in it? If there weren't shrimp, I would use a fluke tab (which does anyone have a local source). There just probably isn't anyway I can locate all the shrimp in a heavily planted tank. And if I move the shrimp and pipefish (including two baby carrying male pipefish), I am worried I will move the hydra with it. Any idea?? Any thoughts are appreciated.
