Default New Shrimp Pics Posted

I finally got off my lazy butt and posted a few pics of Atyopsis
moluccensis and Attya gabonese,
the latter being the most scretive shrimp I've ever had, but also the
most personality. You
would swear they're the smartest shrimp around too.

People feed these things? I don't, they just live in a big planted
tank. I have caught Atyopsis
moluccensis on film (err, on chip really) using their fans to gather
food from the aquarium floor
and have captured them eating a white worm so I guess they're not ONLY
filter feedrs.

I have some movies of them "fanning", once I can get them in to a
format (mpg) that everybody
can see I'll post them and let y'all know. (if anybody knows where I
can get a free MJPEG
codec for W98, please lemme know..


Ask this on alt.comp.freeware. That group is fantastic for
recommending things that are not only free but often hard to find
yourself.

. Ihave to jump through hoops to play back these
wavelet videos from a Fuji A101.

I loved the pics. :-) Unfortunately shrimp and GF don't get along.
The GF are convinced the shrimp are food.... :-(

Koi-Lo.... frugal ponding since 1995...



Ditto, and I'm going to have an empty aquarium soon, but -
.... what shrimp would like my 8.4pH, 13dkH, 16dgH water (?
...and then what fish could I put in that wouldn't eat the shrimp?

I'm going to have to set up a tank at work soon, with nice soft city
water.
