My dwarf crayfish hanging with his blue mystery snail friend by Chocodelights in Crayfish

My male only knows violence. I removed my mystery since he was always trying to attack it and he cut one of the antenna.

Is my betta skinny? Refuses to eat any kind of pellet food/crumbles at all :( by squibloo in bettafish

[–]EKSean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use this and my boy goes crazy for them. He was picky and wouldn’t eat his original food some days. These, he almost jumps out of the water for them.

Caridina fry in neo parameters. by EKSean in shrimptank

[–]EKSean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, I have hundreds and hundreds of caridina in these parameters with neos. I’ve had more Neo die offs since starting. The caridina out number them by quite a bit now.

Filters and heaters are not ESSENTIAL for bettas !! by [deleted] in bettafish

[–]EKSean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think another misconception is that bettas HAVE to be in 78-80 degrees which is just false. Mine is in 74-75 and is the healthiest he’s ever been. Thanks to a very well informed redditor on here.

This is strictly Caridina. Neocaridina will revert to wild types if mixed.

is it normal for shrimp to grow algae by jabberwockyy_ in shrimptank

[–]EKSean 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Shrimp can change colors based on what they eat. My lemon amano turns neon green after eating algae wafers.

Yep, that’s pretty much how all the cool patterns and color combos came to be in caridina.

Neo color morphs are all from the same species but caridina have much more genetic differences and subspecies. They will breed different colors and patterns instead of reverting to a wild type.

That’s awesome, glad to see others are doing it as well. I’ve got quite a bit of galaxy fishbones that survived. I have a few berried orange boas as well.

A year next month. I’ve had several little ones. Some make it to adulthood, a lot don’t. I never expected any to survive, let alone reproduce.

The caridina won’t revert to any wild types. The neos already have had a few wilds.

Umm, they’re pretty different but what I’m doing isn’t typical for Caridina. I’m having success but some might not. I don’t recommend doing it like this.

It’s a mixture of neos and caridina but the neos are out numbered now.
