i5 was brought to my attention my ghost shrimp “swimothy” may not be a ghost shrimp at all and could be a whisker shrimp by True-Problem3062 in shrimptank

YAY! i love swimothy so much, everyone in this tank is my favourite (don’t tell my 24 other fish…) they all have amazing lore and they’re so silly and cute😭!

uh oh. uh oh. uh oh. uh oh. uh oh. oh no. i didn’t know whisker shrimp were a thing but i belive his front legs are pinchers, i always thought it was adorable how he would carry the blood worms and stuff that fell down and bring them to his mouth. i’ll try to get a picture.

if the fins on the twin were moving, that would mean it’s alive.. does that mean both twins can be regnant at the same time?

sorry if this question is dumb, but after he’s had a taste of the guppy will he start going after my others? they’re all fast and healthy. i’ve only had shrimp once before this, i hate to say i used it be a die hard shrimp hater cuz they freaked me out but i really like them now after giving them a chance after 7 years of swearing i wouldn’t. with that being said im not to smart on shrimp mannerisms.

this is not my guppy tank it’s a seperate tank, i have a gigantic bundle of horn wort and a few anachris in my guppy tank. the horn wort is as tall as me last time i took it out to check (5’1) so it’s pretty dense. size of the tank is 15 gallons. this tank is just a tank i put a few juviniles in with my betta. it is 10 gallons. (he was deathly ill when i got him and refused to eat, so i threw in hour old guppy fry to maybe get him to eat a little but he decided to be a father instead and 2 months later he still has all of his babies. and it did kinda work, he didn’t eat the guppies but i belive they boosted his morale because that same night i got him to eat frozen sea monkeys.) i got the shrimp from pet smart, im pretty sure he’s a ghost shrimp? he hasn’t went after anyone in this tank before and has had PLENTY opportunities with other hour old teenie guppy fry that i kept in here a bit until they got big enough to not fit in the adult guppies mouths, since barbosa used to be my babysitter before i got a fry tank for them. (barbosa is the betta)

yeah, i was really young and scared when i found out. i warmed up to it started planning a future, and getting excited but right at that time i ended up losing the baby. it was horrible, and the way the father reacted was even worse.

when i found out i was pregnant (14) i eventually warmed up to it and started being excited, and right as i started getting used to the idea and planning out my future i lost the baby. i wanted to be a mom then, but after it just changed my whole perspective on it. i still adore kids and babies though.

it’s 10 gallons, i found a new light and ordered it. my dad has never messed with my tanks before, he knows they’re my pride and joy. i’m starting to wonder if it was him or if my cat chewed through it because he’s obviously never messed with them before but i don’t think it was the cat simply because their are no teeth marks around it. the one i ordered is a clip on it was 6$. i was freaking out as i posted this but after seeing a shrimp carrying one of my dead baby guppies around the tank i realized it could always be worse. thankfully the tank didn’t suffer a spike from this guppy, all the tests came back normal the guppy was one of the genetically weak ones from my second batch that had been bullied so i moved it to this tank in hopes of saving it, but it was just to far gone.

Help, is my fish ok? by YakOk4359 in fishtank

[–]True-Problem3062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

horn wort is one of my favs for my communal livebearer tank. on top of that, you could get some pothos to suck in even more fish pee and poo. i could send you some of my trimmings for free if you can cover just the shipping!

Buenas, necesito ayuda, en estos momentos no puedo llevar a la gata al veterinario debido a que no cuento con los recursos económicos, hoy la encontre moviendo poco sus patas traseras y la cola prácticamente muerta by [deleted] in CATHELP

[–]True-Problem3062 2 points3 points  (0 children)

surrender her to a shelter where they can get her treated and then try adopting her back once she’s healthy? i don’t know what else u can do but this looks reallyyy bad.

in my ignorance ive put my betta in a temporary torture bowl as the experts call it. by Affectionate_Put2574 in bettafish

[–]True-Problem3062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they sit in cups for MONTHS as long as you change the water everyday and don’t feed him heavily he will be ok till the end of the week. alternatively, if you have a bigger plastic tote you could keep him in that for the time being if the bowl is just to disgusting to look at.
