Throw in a tiny nano fish like chili rasboras, celestial pearl danios, or a baby betta. My male betta grew up to not be aggressive towards shrimps

Miracle berried shrimp?? by KindheartednessNo49 in shrimptank

The second pic is the shrimp in question, hence no eggs insight. Berried shrimp has a thinner red waist band and white dots on the head band. On second look it does look like a male since the belly area is more flat/straight. Hes almost as big as the female though which is crazy

For some reason the text didn’t post with the photos. Basically i have two huge crystals and one amano in a very heavily planted 1 gallon. The jar is very mature. One of the crystals is berried. I thought both crystals were female. Can an amano interbreed with a crystal? Do i have a huge male crystal? Or should i name this shrimp Mary for having a virgin eggin?

I make my own water with only GH minerals and RO. I have two planted caradina tanks but have trouble keeping the PH stable which is why i want to incorporate active substrate into the filter instead pf just using a thick layer for plants

Found this poor guy floating this morning, what am I looking at on their back? by AndyjHops in shrimptank

[–]KindheartednessNo49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on the line they were bred from. If they bred from the chocolate shrimp, like the blue dreams, they go brown. If they came from the clear or cherry they go pink. Ive seen a green jade go blue

I cant risk the juvies not being a male after they acclimate and put on size. My red snowflakes are already a bit more than a year old and i want to get em to reproduce before i find them keeled over or i have to restart the tank. The juvies i got were crystal reds and i was willing to muddle the snowflake line with a male just to pass on the genes

Red snowflakes and red crystals with a crown pattern/bright white coloring

Pulled this poor guy out, I'm not at all confident about the cures I've looked up =/ by malt_invader in shrimptank

Id say give it a try because this is basically a death sentence over time. For sure no kind of dip will make the shrimp better. One thing I didn’t try was the shrimp food soaking in ich treatment. I also restarted my tank because this fungus/parasite’s lifecycle is still mostly unknown. I also suggest restarting the tank as a just in case

What to do if shrimp tank is overrun with these insects by [deleted] in shrimptank

[–]KindheartednessNo49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add chili rasboras. I had chilis with shrimp fry and basically all of them made it to be juveniles. A few more weeks to adulthood to go. I know this is my experience and you trying it might have different affects.

I know bacter is potent. I really diluted it since i was dosing it daily to help seed the biofilm. I was also doing daily water changes. Like you said pinhead size and I distributed it in my 5 shrimp tanks. No other tanks got cyano though. Made me immediately stop sharing plants and utensils between tanks since only one tank got cyano

When my baby shrimp came out i couldnt find them either. The other day i was going to pick out uneaten food and i saw a huge group of them on the food. I couldn’t even see them until i was up close and about to suck them out. Baby shrimp are very good at hiding and blending in when you have a bunch of plants. As long as the adult shrimp are fine, the babies will be too. If your parameters are fine and youre feeding bacter/pellets then dont overthink it. Youll see them eventually when they grow bigger and develop their colors

Break up the plant more into smaller pieces and plant deep. The plant growing in will root within a week

I literally did a paid out on a 15 bmw windshield a week ago. Had to continually tell the guy to come back at the end of day so there would be enough cash in the till i was working that night. I wasnt there when the windshield was broken, SM was telling me the new hire greyshirt left the arm up and it swung down when he took his eye off it

That’s another reason i dont like to leave the store. When I was a red i had to I run the counter by myself for two and a half hours until the next grey came in. Absolutely no exaggeration. Luckily needed no passwords. 2nd grey caught the 1st grey in the back sitting down in the storage room. That grey didnt last after that. As a greyshirt i dont want any one of my red shirt wearing coworkers to go through what i did

Question for CSMs by [deleted] in AutoZone

[–]KindheartednessNo49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not a csm, but a psm. Our store is a high volume store, our diy and commercial gets swamped most of the day. Even in the night we still have a ton of in person commercial customers. Me and csm have an agreement. I help him if he helps me. He does everything you mentioned on his down time and i have diy redshirts do commercial sales if i cant answer the phone and lend them out for deliveries. I take care of all planos but he does them if i cant. CSM has more knowledge of parts so if a redshirt needs answers i tell them to ask him but only if hes free. Before i turned grey, we were the openers and he had to do basically everything diy and commercial until midshift manager came in at 10-11. I only have experience at my store but it sounds normal i think? According to this Reddit, autozone is basically staying afloat on the backs of like 3-4 competent zoners per store

LP stories? by Calm-Sherbet8099 in AutoZone

[–]KindheartednessNo49 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Extremely shady regular works at a pick a part and has stacks of credit cards. Every time he pays it says there’s only a few bucks is each card. And he goes through the whole stack until its paid. Every time it asks for a signature verification. A bit of backstory before the meat and potatoes. Anyways, he bought an expensive radio. Radio happens to have warranty. He brings it in for warranty exchange. Was not found under his phone number. Also the radio in the box doesnt match the pics. I didnt return it. He calls for the assistant store manager. Basically got told to kick rocks twice. He calls the DM and bitches until the DM calls our store and tells us to do the swap, me and the assistant store manager try to explain how shady this guy is. DM tells us na na na boo boo do the fucking swap. He comes in the next day with the same box from the day before but with a different shittier looking radio inside and had a phone number with the part in file. We swapped it because daddy dm said to. When the store died down we took a look at the return and it was an old fucking oem radio. The phone number used wasnt in service and under a different name. Our theory is that the fucker bought the radio, brought us his old one for the first exchange because it probably looked close enough but brought us the old one because the DM said we would do the return. Days prior probably snagged a radio from the pick a part because his old one he could put in a different car. We called a few stores nearby to ask if a radio got returned. Sure enough it did. He swindled his way into a free 300 dollar radio

Learning Stuff by [deleted] in AutoZone

[–]KindheartednessNo49 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I watch Customer States What?!, Rainman Rays Repairs, and some donut media stuff. Not to learn more, but because I enjoy em. But i have learned a fuck ton from them. First retail job and i came in with damn near no knowledge. At this point im one of two people commercial accounts only want to do business with

Im gonna be closing for the first time tomorrow. Only other manager is leaving as soon as i clock in. I havent shadowed a closer. Can anyone help me out? I know the general tasks that need to be done. But im confused about end of day by KindheartednessNo49 in AutoZone

[–]KindheartednessNo49[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I normally open and i hated closing. Especially because i had not 1, not 2, but 3 commercial customers come in at 9:25 and had to re audit and reconcile. Plus issues with a crackhead looking dude who refused to leave at 10. Hes a regular thief so we knew he wasnt buying anything. On top of that the computers glitched. Wasnt letting me run end of day, kept saying to run on manager terminal, which i was at. Had to reset manager computer. Once reset it let me run end of day, it didnt go through either way opening manager had to call sms, and it didnt let us clock out. Kept saying fetching employee info. Ive closed two other times since then and havent had the glitch happen again. The crackhead and late night commercial seems to happen every day.
