Tiger Tank...official start (now with shrimp)

Nubster · 08-16-2012, 03:16 PM

Yeah, and I should clarify, these shots were just hours after the shrimp were taken from shipping and placed in the tank, so they are still showing signs of stress and not fully colored. After ready Liam's article, I don't think I have any question that these are Super Tigers. Not that I did in the first place. Like I said, I trust msjinkzd and her listings.

Thanks Nubster. I was not trying to come off as rude, but there are SO many people that read blogs (some of which are wrong, not saying Liam's is) or misinformation on the web, then regurgitate it which makes it spread. It is a massive problem with online forums and one should be careful to only share knowledge which has been gained from first hand experience. It cuts down on a lot of hte misinformation, myths, and mistakes that people make in the hobby.

There are lots of ways that images can be manipulated, or just poor photo quality, which can interfere with proper id as well.

I had no doubt Rachael! After all, I got a bunch of supers from you when I just ordered regular tigers

Yeah, I am very happy with them. Tried getting some shots today but they haven't showed themselves much yet so I grabbed a shot of a cherry instead. I'll get some more tiger shots this even when it's dinner time.

haha...could be. As much as I want to pull it out, they seem to love it...so for now, I'll leave it. There's a couple small patches that look like they might pull through. I am going to try and get some other moss I have to grow in a 10g tank under high light, CO2, and ferts and get it to take off and slowly acclimate it to low tech and start replacing the dead stuff.

Dead moss everywhere!
