Need some advise here guys.

Is it fine to keep electric blue hermits together with my blood red shrimp and harlequein shrimp??? Cause I have two pieces, and they seem to be fighting, dont want them to die, so maybe would transfer one over to this tank.

Yes, you can keep blue Hermit with your blood shrimp. Watch out when u feed your harlequin shrimp as it can get messy and pollute the water when they feed. Do you know their special diet?

You mean it's starfish diet? Yeah I have one in there for it already. I'm thinking of adding seachem purigen in there for additional filtration.

Anyone seen blood red shrimps anywhere around? :)

Blood shrimps can get aggressive when bigger. Mine ate the skunk cleaner neighbour.

Will take note, but there really isnt much for him to eat in this tank :D

Recently, my tank grew red slime algae so it stopped my buying for awhile. Any idea by it started growing for no reason? Is it because of higher temperature?
