Shrimp bug bit me again!

[julzhull]

Mine eat everything I feed the plecos! French-style green beans, sweet potato, carrots, persimmon, avocado, beet greens, radish greens, watermelon, spinach... They go for anything I put in the tank.

(I even tried a small piece of Dorito in a small container that I had a few shrimp in that had gotten sucked out at water change. They ate every last crumb and survived. I got the idea from @VickiK giving one to her oscar a long time ago. I won't do it again -- just wanted to see if they would eat it. )

I wonder if mine would eat carrot greens. I always have carrot greens leftover (I like the organic carrots).

Looking good. That tank is going to be full in no time.

I bet they would. Try a little bit, blanched, and see if they are interested. If not, I bet the plecos would enjoy it.

Congrats again, Mike!

ohhhhhhhh so funny! Seriously, my Oscars loved Doritos - back in the 80's.

Good news: I ordered some CRS from The Shrimp Farm. They'll be here in a couple days. Let the babies BEGIN!

@VickiK - PLEASE CLOSE YOUR EYES

Everyone else - Moving the Blue Diamond neos to their own tank has paid off. I noticed two different size shrimplets so have two batches from two females.

Hoppy is so darn cute! I'm glad he found another good home. @julzhull, if you want to start a separate topic for him, I can move these Hoppy posts over.

That's probably a good idea I'll start one now..

Can we put them in the one that Mike already started? It's called "Spotted Congo Puffer Craze" in the general discussion.

I think so. I'll try anyway. Fingers crossed I don't mess it up!

@Mike16T I like how you used that stick to keep the leaf square on there. Could you just use a chop stick?

Yes you can. Anything that is not toxic, you can use. =) I just love seeing the shrimps goes crazy on the leaves so I decided to put it on a stick..
