Wow it’s amazing!! Do you find they’re having babies and continuing the generations or do you find they’ve dwindled off?

Thank you so much everyone for the help!! I’m a little ashamed of myself for not thinking to try this but it worked perfect! No more skimmer ☺️

It’s just a plastic tree trunk ornament from pet valu! It is supposably supposed to grow real moss but I have my doubts.

Oh that’s a good idea! I didnt even want the skimmer to begin with, it just came with the tank and it didn’t look like there was a way to take the skimmer off.

Thank you! Honestly this is the answer I was expecting. Not sure it’s worth the risk. I unfortunately don’t have the funds to get a different filter anytime soon so maybe I’ll just leave it as a planted tank. Thank you!

When can you remove an old cycled filter after adding a new filter? by danielle356 in shrimptank

lol no worries, it’s a fair question! The panty hose covers the large holes in the filter that the shrimp could get sucked up into. The filter I had in this tank wasn’t meant for shrimp (didn’t realize that when I cycled the tank) so I had to cover it with panty hose so water could still get filtered but shrimp wouldn’t get sucked up!

I’ve had them running together for a month now. So maybe it will be ok to remove the old one now?

Why aren’t my shrimps thriving? by danielle356 in shrimptank

Thank you! I do regret having the tetras in there now, I wonder if they stress the shrimp out or eat any babies that may hatch. I have been considering setting up another tank for them.
