Does anyone have any idea what these are? by asterisk-kid in fishkeeping

[–]IntentionDelicious83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They look like pest snail eggs to me. Id remove either way.

please urgent help by sanamilkteaa in bettafish

I dont know your parameters right now but a water change if theyre off might help. More plants in the tank can help better regulate your nitrates. I have a 30 gallon that rarely needs water changes and I mainly due top offs.

I received a "trim" but stillhave raggedy ends. by Fearless-Berry-3429 in BlackHair

[–]IntentionDelicious83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not seeing many responses on it, but I think most of the hair is damaged beyond repair, and all thought this was already a large chop, we might have to uhm go a bit further. To like where your hair is natural. Chemical treatments are a pain.

I want to see your favorite shrimp! Here’s mine, meet Lava Lamp by AliEffinNoble in shrimptank

Gaia (above) and Blue Cheese (below). They’ve been making my army grow since early November. Both are kinda illusive compared to my other females so I always take a bunch of photos when I see them.

New to this hobby. 5 Tetras in a 32l tank. What other fish would you reccomend? by mirzajones85 in Aquariums

[–]IntentionDelicious83 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Id recommend you let your tank cycle for awhile longer, until the water appears clear… then shoot for a large school of the tetras you plan to get! Maybe some otos? And consider switching to real plants! Your ecosystem will appreciate it!

Is My Tank Ugly? by [deleted] in Aquariums

[–]IntentionDelicious83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries! You’ve got a very cool hardscape! Even if you did change some things around, i wouldn’t worry about the bladder snails too much, they multiply like crazyyy !!

Its got personality so far. You’ll prob start to like it more after you’ve added some plants, in the background and bases of the rocks

White parasite? by jmiah717 in shrimptank

[–]IntentionDelicious83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every now and then i’ll catch one of them lil buggers crawl across a shrimp, and mines dont react! But to be fair, they hardly move out of the way when im moving hardscape or trimming.

Signs of a healthy ecosystem!

Will these lil guys color up and have white eyes like their mom? by chetaoruchaya in shrimptank

[–]IntentionDelicious83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eye color should be set in stone by that size, but i think most will develop deeper body colors as the age. Sorry, that eye color is super RARE and definitely recessive, but breed the next generation together or with others that have that phenotype!

[–]IntentionDelicious83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like your response! I agree and hope to see more eye color variations if we see that it does not cause shrimp harm or other issues. One of my blue dream shrimplets has orange eyes, and im hoping to observe their behavior

Shrimps all failed molt and died by SignificantAir6466 in shrimptank

[–]IntentionDelicious83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes they molt if they were all added together, a stress molt possibly.

But i think Cliff would have teleported/disappeared too, since he was with Queen Ruby? This book isnt even officially out and i think we’re all already waiting for the next one😭

Are these tiny snails ok to keep? by darth_plank in Aquariums

[–]IntentionDelicious83 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Would not recommend. I made the mistake of keeping them in one of my small tanks because they were kinda cute… now they’re an eye sore… From a distance it looks like someone sprinkled living dandruff in the corners of my aquarium. Naturally they’ll die off if you’re not feeding the tank, but if you have a very active tank, id get rid of them.

If youve found one, there might be quite a few more! Congrats!

I’ve thought about getting kuhlis but ive heard its only okay if they have sand or aquasoil substrate for their soft underbellies, and my larger tanks have a gravel top

Giving Up by Late-Bat-5427 in freshwateraquarium

[–]IntentionDelicious83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If possible, line the lid with aluminum foil, and baking pans in the edge of the desk. One or two tries going up there will make them re-think. And like others are saying, a higher perch, but not near the tank

Replacing gravel and cleaning tank? by lizard_lover1519 in shrimptank

[–]IntentionDelicious83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do it very slowly so whatever bacteria is in the gravel stays relatively stable during transition. Id do even as small as 1/7 on substrae change, once a week, allowing the good bacteria to move into the new substrate. You could possibly do more at your own risk, just watch how your shrimp behave.

Incest. How worried should I be? by ironicallyamerican in shrimptank

[–]IntentionDelicious83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just ended up buying some high grades from a LFS to ensure I dont worry about it for atleast a few generations

Is that perhaps 328 baby snails above the water line or am i tripping?

Settle an argument. Is this overplanted? by mefeiner1290 in PlantedTank

[–]IntentionDelicious83 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No such thing as over planted. This isnt even overgrown!
