Skunk Shrimp MIA

[nakazoru]

Guys;

Shrimps reported missing by my wife. I in China.

My shrimp don't seems to last more than 3-4 months. I feed in moderation so not to pollute water, but the fishes are reallllllllllllll fast. Ended up shrimp got notting.

Any solution?????

target feed.

After your fishs are full or "getting-enough", use something like a plastic pipe target feed the shrimps.

in my experience, skunk cleaner shrimps are kind of "bold", they seems kind of naive, always try go near some strange thing, like your hand

I do them nowaday. Else they will steal food from my coral.

What do you feed your shrimp? Make sure the food has cholesterol content. Your best bet would be frozen food or fresh seafood.

Pipe feeding seems a way to go, but to get a long enuf may be tough. My tank flow also quite strong, always blow away, before shrimp get to it...

Food while they eats flake, and I dun do sea food for them.

I target feed with a long plastic prong. I usually cut a small piece of market prawn.

yah, I feed chopped and minched prawn meat. They seems like it.

And you can use prong or the grabber to spoon feed them.

Shrimps are kind of lousy food-grabber. Strong current will be a dis-pleasure for them.

Or you may try lure them to some calmer area, and start feeding there using a holder or cup.

Happy-shrimping.

Hmmm...

My tank really dun have a lot of calm area. The water flows in a cyclone, anticlockwise, the weakest will be the middle of the tank...

Problematic...
