Starry night sulawasi shrimps ( white orchid)

[Justin12345]

Hi bros just harvested my starry shrimps
They are very hard to catch compared to my crs
from a certain view they look like ghost shrimps when stress but when they are stable their colors sure are striking.
Sorry for the poor picture.

Hi Justin, congrats you have so much offspring! How do you keep this shrimp and what's your trick making them breed?

Hi Justin, congrats you have so much offspring! How do you keep this shrimp and what's your trick making them breed?

Actually theres not much trick to it , the ph must be correct 8-8.5 and lots of hiding space for me .
I started off with 10 though.
I did not measure any other parameters other than ph

hey Justin, congrats...you must be doing all the right things :-)

Are you planning to selling them ? let me know, am currently in Singapore

[matti2uude]

How long do the eggs take to hatch?

[vannel]

Awesome. I'm from Singapore as well and was wondering if the water you are using is right out of the tap. I measured the PH on our tap water and it's usually hovering around 8 for me. Temperature is constantly 27-29 as well so I reckon Sulawesi shrimps should thrive and be alot easier to keep as compared to CRS..?

[avex30]

Nope Sulawesi are alot sensitve than CRS. CRS once water stable they would strive but sulawesi much more harder infact alot of death rate as compare to crs. I've a nano testing out keeping Sulawesi i've already fail 3 time. Currently setting up a 2ft to try again.

Hi Justin,
Really very nice shrimps, please share some tricks with us, such as how you keep the ph high but tds low.
Its been a dream to keep white orchids :)

I have a 2ft sulawesi tank.
I bought all the variety available in LFS, some pregnant too.

Finally have some babies swimming in my tank.
Not sure if there is anything we should do to maintain their survival.
