This tank was set up for the sulawesi shrimps and snails in Jan 2o10, but was devastated after a substrate change to get rid of the dreaded cladophora algae. It was converted to a home for some cherry shrimps for nearly 5 months.
The cherry shrimps multiplied, and the sulawesi rabbit snails had some births too.
Today, most of the cherry shrimps have moved to the main planted tank, and once again, this tank has become a home for the Sulawesi shrimps. It has become very stable, with a nice green coat of algae on the rocks and glass. I hope the shrimps like their new environment and will give birth to the next generation.
There are currently 3 species of shrimps:
Caridina Dennerli (Cardinal Shrimps) (Spotted 6 more more from previous batch, and bought 5 new ones)
Caridina Tigri (Bought 5)
Caridina Striata (Red Lines) (Bought 5, 2 berried, 1 died from moulting)
Orange Rabbit snails (Bought 2)
Yellow Rabbit snails (I think there are about 15 of them)
Golden Rabbit snails (5 I think)
