Well, 5 or 6 weeks after bringing my prawn home, he died tonight. I found him upside down in the aquarium and still moving. Both his eyes were gone. I don't...
Cris, sorry for your loss. If the eyes are gone, chances are good the fish did the shrimp in. It may have started to go through a molt, which makes them...
One can find smart crayfish/prawn and not so smart ones. Some when they molt, they will hide. Others dance about. The dancing gene doesn't pass onto the ...
Frank, Guess that could have been what set it off.... he hadn't molted in a while. Cris ... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? ...
Russ, Yes, he had a nice spot to go...strange thing was his tail, won't straighten out....he kept backing into the glass and was doing all sort of antics.. ...

Hi all, i think crays are a good bet i have put 2 red swamp crays in the ciclid tank and have survived for weeks now and they had molted once and were back in...

Hey folks, Has anyone tried the new-ish Seachem pH alerts in their shrimp tanks yet? It seems like it would be safe but I'm always hesitant to try something...
Opps, in my last email I asked about the Seachem pH alert, but I meant the Mardel pH 4 to 6 week 'live meter.' I'm guessing both products are similar though....
