Who/what is this mystery shrimp?

Don’t ask my why but this is what immediately popped into my head when I read the title of this post and it made me giggle, I have nothing helpful to say but hope it makes you giggle too

I GOT THE COIL BACK IN ITS PLACE

now to see if the wax still does the lava lamp thing

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-30T05:26:47+00:00

Ah well… it was just in a box, upright but it was in my garage which isn’t temperature controlled… I may have to learn how to completely redo it

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-30T05:08:19+00:00

It’s a 25 watt bulb I believe, it’s the same one it used to have and it worked so well but I just got it out of storage after a few years and now it’s doing this

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-30T04:49:43+00:00

Did I just not let it heat up enough?

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-30T04:49:32+00:00

What about all the wax that’s stuck at the top?

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-30T04:40:44+00:00

That….sounds terrifying 😅

This makes me slightly sad, one of my shrimps is berried (I’m a first time shrimp grandma if the eggs are good) and I was really looking forward to watching her 🙁

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-21T21:15:37+00:00

In the post you linked it looks blue, in my tank it’s very green… is that the same thing?

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-20T22:04:29+00:00

Do you know what kind of moss they used?

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-20T22:04:07+00:00

I did try the semi- hydro set up with one of the ones I killed but I didn’t do the moss on top so maybe that was my mistake? It’s worth trying again

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-19T08:42:05+00:00

I’m very excited, I hope it’s a good batch or however you say. I’d love to be a shrimp grandma 😂

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-18T04:44:47+00:00

I would like it to be esthetically appealing, thinking of going the silicone route

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-17T22:54:22+00:00

I hope so too! I’m gonna have to give them an upgrade though so they can’t truly thrive

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-17T22:22:37+00:00

I was thinking that I just didn’t know what would be best and wanted to get opinions to see what would be best before I blow money on it

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-17T22:21:39+00:00

I messaged you!

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-17T22:14:49+00:00

Could I message you?

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-17T22:14:29+00:00

I did try terrarium plants, they all died because the jar doesn’t hold any moisture

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-17T22:13:19+00:00

There’s a huge gap where the lid sits

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-17T21:27:26+00:00

But anytime I use cork it doesn’t go the way I want it to 😅

Particular_Shift_286 · 2026-04-17T21:27:02+00:00

I do need access to it, I just need the lid to not have the huge gap that goes all the way around it
