What's that spiky plant in the center of your tank? Looks really cool!

Also, with so many nerites in your tank how are you getting rid of all the eggs they lay? Do you think it's useful having a nerite in shrimp tanks? If so... are you selling :P? Can't wait to see this in person haha.

**h4n** · 12-29-2011, 02:39 AM

haha my bed time, 4AM work!! ahh.

Thats spiky plants is the Erio Ban Ba Wa.
There eggs arent that bad, I love nerite snails.
I have them in every tank.
You should of seen the tank 3 weeks ago, the whole front was brown alage. I took like 6 horned nerite from another tank drop them in and boom over night. Even the rock were brown.

How long do nerites live for? How do you remove the eggs too, don't you find them everywhere?

And I read online that nerites don't do well in pH's of less than 7. Which I assume your tank has to be in, or the CRS would die.

I love Ben Ba Wahs.....an Amano Shrimp will take care of that hair algae on your Erio....I think its the only way to keep the Erio intact while getting rid of that algae....I HATE HAIR ALGAE!

diwu13 · 12-29-2011, 04:46 AM

Hm... I heard amano's like eat the marimo balls since those are algae too

**h4n** · 12-29-2011, 08:42 AM

The nerite seem to be doing fine.
Ya I need two smaller amano shrimps in there, only ones I ever find are huge!!
And no they don't even touch the Marimo ball that I have in the 2.5g

**Geniusdudekiran** · 12-29-2011, 01:17 PM

Yup the CBS/crs in this tank is from
Tiffany. The blue pearls are from Johnny.
I think I got it for $20?

**Geniusdudekiran** · 12-29-2011, 09:56 PM

My CBS came in from her today. Kind of pale, but now I know what they color up to be like. She really does have great shrimp!
