Umm. what is this ebay item for?

The item in the link looks like a hollow painted piece of bamboo. A "shelter" for shrimplets. The description says that you can add moss to the outside and place a few rocks inside to weight it down.

Looked like a lot of BS to me. I saw them at Japan. They have display tanks and display tanks soley for shrimp and they didn't have that stuff in there. I think its just snake oil.

Hmm, somehow the shrimp have survived for thousands of years in the wild without them...

Crap. I dont see any breeders using it. Just another item to make money off CRS breeders.

I agree, it looks like a piece of painted bamboo. For that price too??? sheesh

Never heard of moss on a rock or driftwood for shelter? You have to introduce something that looks like spray painted pvc piping - yeah, that's el natural. roud:

(sarcasm)

But can a painted piece of PVC make the water with to be limpid?

LOL I wasn't sure exactly what was meant by that. I figured it was a bad translation. I wasn't going to buy it. It looked like pure voodoo for CRS breeders.

I wonder how many people have actually fallen for it. LOL

Can't we get sued for this lol. But I highly doubt an employee from the company would even KNOW about this website.

Sued for what? No boday said the product didn't do anything or claimed it did anything. just speculation as to what it is and the value of what we speculated it to be.
Less liablity there then the claims the seller makes about their wonder tube.
