You don't ever look at Special Fried Rice the same way again after keeping shrimp

 

[Mr.Reeefer]

M used to freak out when her shrimp would moult. Always remember, if it's on a moon, chances are good it's a moult that you're seeing. Shrimp, crabs and lobsters moult on a full moon.

thanks for the info, i will be keeping an eye out for that now.;) its amazing how it all works

Was it through the post? Where did you buy them?

 

[ReeferRob]

I have blackworms growing in my pond, lol. I didn't find out they were there till this fall.

Not post, fastway courier, and the place is called "Australian black worms", they told me they only deliver if they can be there within 24hrs, but the black worms were in such good shape I think they could go 48 easily, when I pulled them out of the bag to rinse them, water ran clear from the get go, no discolouration.

$55.00 for 500g.

Lol I think I need a pond now

 

[ReeferRob]

I pulled the leaves back and there they were so I fed some to the crew. They snapped them up like they were gonna be declared illegal any minute. I don't know if you could start a culture of them down there. I'm seeing it stays a lot warmer there. Might be worth giving it a try. They're feeding on the decaying leaves in my pond which is a dirty hell hole. The only thing in there are about 6 weather loaches.

Thanks Dom, I have some coral pics to post up tonight, I am happy with how the zoas have come along, they will need a trim when I move though, some zoas are dominating the garde, and it's always the not so super ones

i would like to thank @Wrangy @Agent M,

yesterday was the first time i have seen my mandarin eat in the 8-12months i have had him.

blackworms are always something i knew were great for the fish but was putting of until the move however, when your publicly told your mandarin looks anorexic @Wrangy:p, it gave me the kick up the ass i needed to act now rather than later.

Hopefully im on the road to fatter healthier fish.

Cheers.
