Cleaner Shrimp!
I got a cleaner shrimp today, and my learners permit, so watch out drives in NC. I am gonna have pictures of both in about 2 hours, but in the meantime I am driving my parents to get some milkshakes. The cleaner is going into the 7 minibow, and boy is he tiny. I asked for the smallest one and I got him.

the cleaner is dead, i dno what happened. I have never been so pissed off in my life, i walk upstairs look in the tank and see my scarlet crab munching down on a 30 dollar meal. I want to punch my tank in, that is how mad I am. I acclimated him correctly, with the drip bucket method. My levels are fine.

I am sorry D...I know how frustrating it can be. I bought a kole tang and it made it just several hours as well....30.00 down the drain. Yeah, we are sorry for the loss of life, but I would be lying if I said my purse didnt resent it.

Ooo. Bummer on the cleaner. That sucks, both financially and for the poor lil guy.
One a more positive note, congrats on the permit! Welcome to the world of flat tires, electrical problems and high gas prices LOL

Well, luckily I am in the LFS almost 2 times a week, and the manager is really nice to me. I think he will hook me up with another one. I think the cleaner had a broken leg when I got him, and just could not get away from the hermit or something. I was not here to see it, since I was tearing up the road...so to speak. I am gonna drive, keyword there, I, and get another one. Wish me luck guys. BTW, I have been working my butt off and am gonna order a nano 6 pack next week most likely. This weeked I will be heading to the lake, so lets hope my tank does ok over the weekend without any supervision. Its probably not good to add a shrimp, but I dont really have a choice since I got him last night, and we planned the lake trip later last night.

I do not think anything was meant by this post, but I found it objectionable and was in violation of the user agreement, I am sure it was inadvertant and this should not be taken as anything but an edit.

Well, I went to lake, and now that I am home I dont see my cleaner shrimp anywhere. I hear they can hide but the tank is so small and I figured I could see him wherever. Any ideas?
