TB's pictures


Here are some pictures of those gorgeous shrimps.
I'd like to give a special thanks to all the importers who make it possible for us to have them in our tanks.

Very nice looking shrimps.
How do you keep the tank cool in FL?

I'm using the fan on mine, but fearing it may not be enough.

Thanks for all comments. My tanks are on the patio. I close it with 2" Styrofoam and clear plastic hurricane shatters. There is portable air conditioner running to cool down to 75F.All tanks had 2 or 3 80mm fans .Tank temperature are 71-73 day -night.

These pictures look really nice but I find that these TBs' wow factor is 10 times more when seen in person. The black, the red, just splendid.

if that cone survives and grows underwater that would make for an incredibly interesting plant for some sort of absurdly large tank
beautiful shrimp though

I don't think that it will grow much. It stays 1.5" tall for 30-40 days already. Probably if I lift the leaves to be out it may grow.
