Posts Tagged ‘tank’

brine shrimp and frozen blood worms. All the other fish in my 55 gal tank eat it up and he wont pay attention to the food. He swims around the tank and doesn’t seem sick. I have started brackishing the water have live plants, hiding places etc. I dont want him to die. Help. His tank mates are 2 silver dollars, 2 kissing fish, a pleco and 3 mollies. I looked at his teeth and dont seem overgrown in any way. He is still very small about 1 inch and his belly is white.

Last year I bought a packet of brine shrimp eggs. (To feed freshwater fish) Now that I have a marine tank (65gallon with 4 percula clowns and small corals)(it’s fully matured so now i’m starting to add corals) Will brine shrimp lay eggs in the tank. Last time I fed my percula clowns brine shrimp was last week and last night after I turned off the light and looked into my tank with a small torch I could see some brine shrimp swimming around.
Will they breed themselves? Or is there anyway to promote breeding? I want them for the perculas and coral.
Any advice would be much appreciated.

should I use my old 1.5 gal tank? I have about 1–20 already. I have ones pregnat, which means 40 more! Plus, I gave them Cupid’s Arrow (mating powder). That means even more! Plus i’m thinking about buying more eggs! So, should I stick with the sea-monkey tank, or should I just use my old 1.5 gal tank?
I can take the filter out. PLZ ANSWER MY OTHER SEA-MONKEY QUESTION

2 ADF’s, 1 betta and a few algae eating shrimp in a 5 gallon filtered tank.
50% water changes weekly, no nitrites or ammonia, 15ppm nitrates.
They are fed once a day, live blackworms, except when there are frog eggs present. Once a week treat of frozen brine shrimp.
He is active and moves around, but this bump is a little bigger than the bumps under his arms. I noticed it last night.
If it turns out to be a bit of gravel, is there anything I can do?
I’ll be monitoring this question, so if you need any more info, just ask.
No, I’m not sure it’s gravel. I’m just trying to gather info on anything it could possibly be.
I don’t see how gravel could be digested, and the thought of a tumor has occurred to me.
I know there’s nothing I can do about a tumor, just wondering if I could do anything if it is gravel, or how I could tell.
