]]> Comment on Orange Shrimp by Daniel http://www.theshrimpfarm.com/posts/orange-shrimp/#comment-1372 Daniel Tue, 24 Jan 2012 06:27:25 +0000 http://www.theshrimpfarm.com/?p=186#comment-1372 The LFS at my side label them as "Orange shrimp". I have a couple of them and they breed fine in freshwater. Only thing is that I am confused if they were hybrids or not because I used to have tiger, malaya, green, orange and cherry red shrimps in my tank altogether.

]]> Comment on Red Cherry Shrimp in Acidic Water by Jon http://www.theshrimpfarm.com/posts/red-cherry-shrimp-in-acidic-water/#comment-1347 Jon Sat, 10 Dec 2011 17:55:39 +0000 http://www.theshrimpfarm.com/?p=184#comment-1347 I noticed the same thing with my cherries. In tap water with lots of moss, they were breeding like crazy and loving it. Now they're in with 7 CBS with an environment intended for crystals, pH lower than 6.5 with ADA and they haven't bred in months. I noticed the same thing with my cherries.

Because they hatch into free swimming larvae they need green water to feed on. That needs to be supplied when ever the water starts to clear. Another benefit of green water is that it totally purifies the water chemistry. It feeds on ammonia, nitrite and the bedeviled nitrate thus, giving the larvae pure water to thrive in. Plus, there should be from sand to river rock size substrate to give habitat for young adult shrimp to feed on and hide in. At that stage they eat alga and rotifers that live on the rock.
