Aquairum Lighting Question?

Posted on November 4, 2011 by admin| 4 Comments

Hey I have a 10 gal that I’m raising feeder guppies, snails, and cherry shrimp in. I have live hornwart (freshwater plant) growing really good and have plenty of hiding areas in it for babies to hide in. I have some algae but not enough that my shrimp and snails can’t keep under control. If I leave my lights on 24/7 will the guppies, snails, and shrimp grow faster? or will it actually hurt them? Also has anyone heard of “Snail milk”? Its a product I’ve seen on ebay and wonder if it really works or if it is just a scam. Please give me your advice and opinions. Thanks

Anyone have help on setting up a fish tank ?

Posted on September 20, 2011 by admin| 5 Comments

I have a 10 gal tank and I was thinking of putting 3-4 neon tetras ,1 african dwarf frog and 1-3 vampire shrimp or yellow or purple banded shrimp if they are freshwater.And I’m going to ask if they store has bristlenose plecos and clams. I’m also looking for a betta but its fins might get ripped .So I know I’m getting 3 or more neon tetras ,1 african dwarf frog and some kind of shrimp from the store but I’m not sure if I should do that, what do you think?

Some sort of Japanese Cleaner Shrimp?

Posted on September 9, 2011 by admin| 2 Comments

My LFS has these shrimp that are marked as Japanese Cleaner Shrimp. They are like, 4$ each. But to me, they look no different than ghost shrimp. They’re less than an inch long, maybe 3/4 at the longest and in a freshwater, ten gal female betta soroity tank. Is the fish store trying to jip unsuspecting customers, or is this really something different?
