Hey guys, awesome thread!
I live for shrimp, I think theyre the coolest, most helpful little aliens in the world.
Right now I have about a dozen amano shrimp in with my 2 axolotls. Amano shrimp are great for your algea troubles but theyre also really good for your leftover bloodworms...they go after that stuff like crazy. Also when the females are ready for breeding they release some kind of phermone(or something like that) that drives the males crazy...THEY LITERALLY DANCE AROUND YOUR AQUARIUM! I've been breeding my 2 female amanos. Theyre really not that hard to breed if you want instructions I would gladly provide.
I also keep bamboo shrimp. However I only keep bamboo shrimp (Atyopsis moluccensis) with my C.orientalis because my wild type axie managed to hunt down an adult...
Shrimp are great for their personality, cleaning, and food supplement but I only suggest feeding your own captive bred shrimp or from a reliable source...pet store shrimp are kept with fish for the most ...and i just wouldnt risk it.
