I can wait any longer. I need some OEBT's. I'll be putting them in a fully cycled 10g planted tank. Current inhabitant are some Platy fry, 5 Amano shrimp and maybe 20 RCS. I'm going to try to get all of them out. My 20g has hundreds of RCS.
What are ideal perameters for OEBT's
I'm not sure of my PH since I'm not using CO2
Nitrates are 10
Nitrites are 0
Ammonia is 0
Every one is thriving. Will they eat normal algae tabs as my other shrimp? Do they need special care? Do they require special effort to breed? My Angels only breed after a water change. Thanks in advance.

OEBT's are not very difficult. I would get a ph test kit for sure though its one of thos necessities.

I've got one. I'll try to do it tomorrow.

might want to supplement their diet with another food too, feeding any single food will probably lead to a deficiency of something. I use several different foods, some with meat protein, some with vegetable protein, some with calcium, some blanched vegetables, some blood worms, etc.

Very good point, variety is key for success. OEBT can thrive in a vast variety of conditions
