Drop me a PM when you do. If I haven't heard from woods on what I am going to get from him I may be interested.

Alright,

Right now I'm thinking about $4 per they range from S to B and throw a mix still... Color is nice though either way. I had an A grade female produce a few nice S shrimp last clutch but its looking like the tank is getting too full. They're all sexually mature it seems since I've got another 4 new shrimp berried

I can probably cull 5-10

Real update coming soon (tonight or tomorrow)

Isn't it a little early in the year for a 12/20/08 update?

(Which really means- I'm so glad there's occasionally someone who's as confused about what day it is as I am all the time!!! )

I have both in different tanks. I'm not sure if I love the tank, but spotted two more of the babies berried so thats always good!

Got some more pictures sitting on the camera next to the tank, they're all probably crap though.

Made 28 sweet salmon rolls today, should help bring out reds in shrimp. They're dehydrating next to me at the moment.

So the TANK update will come on later in the week.

Laura Lee, no idea what you're saying I think sometimes you just need to slow down and think before you hit that post button

I'm lost at the 12-20-08 update comment, granted I'm about to fall asleep...

I feed them a LOT! Really especially since there are too many in my 10g to be sustained decently from the other stuff in the tank.

In the last week...

Spinach flakes (a few different ones)
Rain-'s biscuits
Some random algae/weedy pellets I got one day
Some food from another member who made some
Bloodworms
cyclops eze

probably a few more things. The cyclops eze is kinda tricky with CRS and Diamonds because it'll mess with the white since its soooo high in beta carotene.

Approximately how many RCS do you have? Because I heard somewhere that CRS are more agressive when it comes to feeding, and won't let the RCS get a chance to eat...

I find this not true, in my tank the RCS are more aggressive and I see maybe 1 CRS of mine at feeding time. This is because the RCS are breeding like mad compared to the CRS I guess it depends on what you have more of. I have way more RCS then CRS and I wished it was the other way around.

I don't think he was trying to be rude. I didn't perceive it that way.

Ahill -

The title of your thread is:

CRS Tank Adventure!(Updated 12-20-08)

Hence the confusion since 12/20/08 hasn't happened yet.

Via PM is best. Two others are in line before you. They're $5 each. Shipping express is preferred and thats a bit more pricey. But any interest in buying them please keep to PMs mostly. (keep this thread on topic )

I have the same view, its whatever there is more of. I had gotten 10 or so yellows from another member in january, these days they've vanished In my experience, mixing in small tanks doesn't work.

It was somewhat rude. I feel that she does post a tad bit and many times it adds nothing important. Especially when no explanation is given.

Now I understand, and did laugh a good deal when I realized what this all was about. I really had no clue

Here is the mess up. It was updated on

When I typed the updated on 12-20-2008 I must have had my finger slip and hit the TWO as well as the one.

I do think it does capture my lack of updates well and will probably keep it that way since it is funny

------------

I've got about 100+ pictures I need to sort through and post some of the decent ones.

Yesterday I cleaned a lot of the duck crap off the top and took the fissidens and some of the willow moss and put it into the 55g. So it looks much better and more open.

Thanks for the comments, soon I'll be culling regularly
