CPDzeke's ADA Mini M The Treeless Mountain V3

CPDzeke · 03-06-2013, 08:35 PM

Come on people, reply to my thread! My RCS got its head stuck in my intake and died.

However, new shrimp are coming soon!

Nice pic. Is that your shrimp?

CPDzeke · 03-07-2013, 11:54 PM

Yep. Just one of my worst fire reds to put in with one of my better cherry males. (No fire red males)

Green_Flash · 03-08-2013, 02:19 AM

How did it crack?

CPDzeke · 03-08-2013, 02:22 AM

I was washing it. Just looked at pics from when I first got it, and it still had that. Probably just a birth mark.

Green_Flash · 03-08-2013, 02:25 AM

Yeah, that is probably what it is, which is good.

CPDzeke · 03-08-2013, 04:23 PM

I may have a copepod problem... How to get rid of it?

Most fish eat them. I'm not sure if shrimp do, but put some CPDs or whatever in there.

CPDzeke · 03-08-2013, 08:15 PM

Perfect! I will be keeping CPDs in the tank anyways, and just added a white cloud. See my thread about my algae problem please...

More likely, I'm afraid, is the possibility that the shrimp died near the intake and was sucked headfirst into it post-mortem.

CPDzeke · 03-09-2013, 03:59 AM

Hmm. :/

CPDzeke · 03-10-2013, 01:26 AM

Picture bump!
I went to Tropiquatics and got me some new petrified unicorn poop! (AKA seiryu stone) I did a partial rescape, but since I can't figure out how to post more than one pic at a time, I can't show the scape here. Seiryu pic.

Update!
Did a minor rescape, trimmed the hairgrass, and added an oto and an amano shrimp. I woke up this morning to a dry amano shrimp on the floor, that's the second time. My male shrimp fertilized the female, but this morning it died and got stuck in the filter.

my shrimp aren't huge fans of me apparently. Here's the updated pic. Also ordered dry ferts and a GLA PB regulator.
