(a chip off the old rock)

[teena]

i just need to watch my self with these rocks, because the last 2 i put in there spiked & killed all my fish thats why i only have 2 shrimp. how did they make it?

 

[bjonesjr1]

shrimp are pretty hardy I think...

i see u have 3 peppermints do yours stay under thinghs & hide?

 

[jawaiianmon]

I think people do say peppermints are seen less often than other shrimp.

the reason i ask my peppermint climbs on the powerhead,heater,skimmer& he eats out of my hand, i think he may get out way at the top of the tank.

I have (2) ZooMed pumps and the sponge that comes with it, they like to stay right on that and hide right against the back side of the tank other than that they hide under some of my rock work, The other day I saw one of them almost got caught by my anemone and almost became lunch but he got away. They only are out in the open when I feed the tank because they have a real good sense of smell I think and they go right for the food...

would the skimmer suck him in? mine out all the time just like the bloodshrimp, they have the run of the tank now. (no fish)
