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

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 had some glass/grass shrimp at one time (I may have the name wrong) and
they did well in my water with a PH of 78. to 8.4 and a GH of 300+.
Unfortunately even the guppies would nibble their feelers annoying them, so
I gave them away.... that was after the GF experience. I found that the
livebearers found them irresistible to nibble at, and the GF would actually
try and swallow them. I'm thinking shrimp may be happiest in a shrimp only
tank.

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