They could be eaten by some fish. Other than that no special care required. They will take care of them self.

Not with mollies. Molly would pick them all clean. They did in my tank even with plenty of java moss ...

Thanks! How long it took for them to grew from 1" to 2"? In my case I need somewhat aggressive and larger shrimps to survive in my main tank. When I got them I placed them with my emperor tetras. So, tetras managed to shred one poor guy to peaces in minutes and where chasing others all over the...

Typically, you would get ramshorns and common pond snails with plants. I always had them in my planted tanks and believe they are beneficial. They eat fish food leftovers, decaying plant meter and even dead fish (if you did not manage to find it in time). As long as you don't overfeed you will...

I got 3 amano shrimps ~6 months ago for 12 gal tank. They are doing great, very entertaining, molt often, but hardly grow. What is the adult size? Mine are ~1 in, I thought they grow larger...

Couple of years ago I had an emperor tetra infected with camalanus worms. After one round of treatment with fenbendazole flakes (from Angelplus) they were all gone and the fish lived happily after that. This year I got my second fish tank infected with camalanus worms after I bought some...

My cats love Hikari brand

Aww, so cute :) I will try next time when mine lay eggs

All fish I kept including a few species of tetras, danios, livebears and cats love peas

I take a dozen or so frozen peas, add half cap of drinking water and microwave for 30 sec. Cool them with cold water, deshell and squish with fingers so they look like pancakes.

Frozen brine shrimps work better for cories than bloodworms, also they are easier to swallow for juveniles. I melt the cube in tank water, wash brine shrimps couple of time and damp all in tank. All my fish attack the shrimps but they sink fast and plenty gets to cories.

How did you move it form the glass?

My cories spawn regularly, but they do it on tank glass so free sushi for other fish. What did your cories spawn on?

You may get a spawning box to keep him in the same fish tank separated from other fish. Or you may try to remove him, rearrange the tank and put him back

DW = driftwood, a week or two.
