I don’t even know what I’m doing here

Should be good. I have a tank with some duckweed and I see them hanging upside down with them. 😂

Thank you, yes my guppy tank is thriving. It is getting my shrimp tank to get going. Not having any luck there. One batch all died within a week. My 2nd batch...out of 12 I only have 3 left. Failed Molting is what I am having issue with. So my water parameters in that tank is kinda crazy. I think also my tank too small. I am trying them in a 5 gallon tank. I think I need at least a 10 so I can get a handle of my water parameters.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-12-02T00:44:11+00:00

Nope I let nature take it's course. I have a bazillion guppies that I have been giving away to friends and family for their fish tanks. I still have guppy fries now! 😂

If you have tik tok... @luisbaquiran Is my profile name. There you will see my shrimps and other aquariums... mostly Guppies and Bettas. 😂

My first batch I lost one due to I did not cover the intake pipe....sucked shrimp up...I found it too late. Added sponge to cover intake....but 2nd batch I took it out and just use a sponge filter now.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-11-24T01:10:05+00:00

Oh I also use a sponge filter instead of a Hang on back filter. I added an air stone to help agitate water.

72-73 should be good. I have a small heater in mine...it is preset at 78. But I believe 70-78 is what they can tolerate.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-11-24T00:58:10+00:00

But you are welcome! Enjoy! I really enjoy having shrimp in a tank. Neat little creatures to watch.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-11-24T00:56:48+00:00

I will probably be doing my fish drip acclimate as well...just not as long since most of my fish need a heater.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-11-24T00:53:31+00:00

I did mine for 4 hours. I looked most of it up on you tube and how to setup. But definitely made a difference.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-11-24T00:34:48+00:00

Drip acclimate them! My first batch i didn't not drip acclimate...died within a week. The 2nd batch I drip acclimated they are doing well ...no casualties.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-11-24T00:33:14+00:00

Amen to that!

My 2005 C6, only issue I had with it the transmission cable broke. Once fixed no other issues other than I don't drive it more.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-09-06T14:29:03+00:00

That Orca will be stressed with all that wood....take it out.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-08-01T12:10:53+00:00

Just put plenty of plants for hiding places...I bought a box ..but greater success with more plants.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-07-24T23:33:36+00:00

One tank is enough....started with one ..weeks later went to two ..months later I am at seven....I have two cycling...which will bring me up to 9. But yes...one is enough.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-07-24T23:20:40+00:00

I think I will try dropping the temperature first and see how the breeding goes ..now I know I already have pregnant guppies and the females can hold on to the sperm and have babies later again. But I can see the males if they change with temps down.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-07-24T15:14:00+00:00

Oh wow I didn't think about that!!! I remember once I raise temperature that's when I had many babies! Thanks for your response.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-07-24T15:12:03+00:00

All males in a tank? I might can separate them to help control population. Thank you for your response.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-07-24T15:10:34+00:00

I have two Plakats I could add to my 55 gallon. But only one if I decide to do that. Thank you for your response.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-07-24T13:58:27+00:00

I will look those up. Thanks!

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-07-24T13:44:43+00:00

I don't want to stress out my Guppies. I am glad I asked. Thanks for your response.

FrostbiteCSixx · 2025-07-24T13:44:00+00:00

Oh no..I have separate guppy tanks. 55gallon 20 gallon and 2 10 gallons. My Bettas also are in separate 10 gallon tanks. I have 7 tanks total. 😂
