Tag Archives: few days

I am getting sea monkeys (brine shrimp) in a few days from an Internet order?

I was wondering if it works, and whether or not I can put in the flat bottomed marbles and a little plastic plant in the tank? Will it be safe for them? Will they enjoy it? I basically want to know everything u know about them. (I already went to seamonkey.com so please don’t suggest that.) ^^ I want to know the opinions of people.

Thanks, Nara

Will my Sexy Shrimp Survive?

My boyfriend and I just bought these sexy shrimp online a few days ago. They are pretty cool but they are A LOT smaller then I thought they’d be. Right now we have them in a catch cup with a piece of rock but we want to know if they’d survive if we let them out.

We have two blue yellow tail damsels, a domino damsel, a 4 stripe damsel, a ocellaris clownfish, a clown fairy wrasse, a snowflake eel, a serpant starfish, a cleaner shrimp and a Condylactis Anemone.

is my painted turtle sick…part 2?

for the past few days my painted turtle has become lethargic, i can still get him to eat but he seems to eat in slow motion. the tank water is always 78 and has not gone down so i don’t think it is too cold bc he used to love it.

i am afraid he is not getting the vitamins he needs bc he HATES reptomin sticks (if i can trick him into eating one he will spit it out). his diet is all crickets, brine shrimp and flies im afraid he is getting too much protein. i have anacris in the tank but he never eats it. how can i get him to eat veggies?

What should i be feeding my betta?

I’ve never owned a betta before, but adopted this one from my mother after being horrified she was keeping it in a small water jug. Its been moved to a heated 5 gallon tank in my office at work (by itself). Its been there a few days and has become very active and its appetite seems huge. It immediatly eats everything i feed it.

I’m just wondering how much i should be feeding it, and if i should introduce frozen food like blood worms and brine shrimp and how often. Right now he gets 2 pellets in the morning, and a few flakes before i leave work, is this balanced enough?

p.s. don’t worry it gets fed everyday, we have a weekend guy that feeds him for me

White cloud mountain minnow Q??

I got 5 white cloud mountain minnows a few days ago. they are all doing great. they are in a 10gal tank with lots of plants. I wanted to know how big they needed to be to lay eggs. mine are all between 3/4 of an inch to 1 inch long. Im not sure if i have boys or girls (the lady at the store said they were laying eggs in the aquerium, and there was 10, so im hopeing i got a few or each gender)
NE ways my questions are:
1) what can i feed them besides flakes (i wanna spice up their diet, i read online that brine shrimp was good for them?)
2)how many times do they lay eggs in a month?
3)What do i do with the eggs when the fish lay them? (do i leave them, take them out?)
4) does it matter that there are 4 normal sized ones and a smaller one or will they pick on the small guy?

Thats all my questions
Thnxs for the answer
