Hi guys...........

Just put in 5 more shrimps into m 3 feet & have total of

5x cleaner & 5x fire shrimp.

All shrimps are doing fine so far but 1 royal gamma & 1 fire gobies & 1 sand gobies had died in less than a wk after added into tank.

Just wonder why fishes died so easily maybe.........

I did not acclimatise them properly whereby I dripped my shrimps for almost half hour before putting into tank.

Or.............. :blink:

Could it be my shrimps attack the fishes as my fishes are all quite similar size as

my shrimps???

My water parameter seems to be fine as coraline started to grow just after more than 2 months.

Wonder why???

Anyone care to share more...............

Regards.

:rolleyes:

Confusing....nice tank I must say...

If I were you I would try getting the fishes from another source. The main thing about keeping fishes alive is to get healthy specimens...don't get any with shallow tummies..or with any scars or torn fins..or those that are breathing heavily..sure signs of problems..

Always something more important than fish.

wouldnt trust any hermit crab after reading an article posted in SRc tt says tt hermit are no longer reef safe.

Not all hermits are not 100% reefsafe.

Only a few species are alright and you have to get them as tiny as possible, IMO.

Shrimps are a nuisance

especially when you try to feed your coral with meats

They will come and snatch away the meat

      BITCOIN RECOVERY SIMPLIFIED, DIGITAL TECH GUARD RECOVERY CUTTING-EDGE SOLUTIONS.

      contact@ digitaltechguard .com website link:: https://digitaltechguard.com telegram +56 997 059 700 Being an artist living in Miami, my life has always been filled with creativity, inspiration, and the ups and downs of a fluctuating income. However, nothing could prepare me for the financial blow I experienced when I fell victim to an online scam. Losing $25,000 felt like losing a part of my identity, as those funds represented not just my savings but also dreams and aspirations for my art. I found myself feeling lost, anxious, and uncertain about the future. In the midst of this turmoil, I began searching for solutions to recover my lost funds. That’s when I came across Digital Tech Guard Recovery. Initially, I was skeptical. Like many, I had read about recovery services that promised the world but often delivered nothing. However, my instincts told me to reach out to them, and I’m so glad I did. From the very first interaction, the team at Digital Tech Guard Recovery was professional and compassionate. They took the time to understand my situation, guiding me through the recovery process step by step. What impressed me most was their commitment to transparency; there were no upfront fees, which put my mind at ease during a time when I could least afford to take further financial risks. Digital Tech Guard Recovery walked me through the necessary documentation and evidence collection to support my case. They were patient, answering all my questions and providing me with updates throughout the process. Their expertise was evident, and it was comforting to know that I was in capable hands. It felt as if I had a team of advocates on my side, fighting to reclaim what was rightfully mine. Over the next few weeks, I watched as they diligently worked on my case. They kept me informed about their progress and what steps were being taken. I had almost lost hope, but their determination reignited my faith in the possibility of recovery. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, I received the news that my funds had been successfully recovered. I couldn't believe it—I was overjoyed. This experience not only restored my finances but also rekindled my belief in support systems. If you find yourself in a similar situation, I highly recommend reaching out to Digital Tech Guard Recovery.
