nice lotindy!
I am newbie on keeping Sulawesi. I just started my tank at Oct 2011. However, my tank seems popping up different problem and no shrimp reproduction as well (like brown algae and low GH even i put coral stone). Recently, my tank is more stable and have one Cardinal Shrimp breeding. I have Cardinal shrimp, white orchid, orange delight shrimp

would you mind to share about your tank set up and what kind of equipment have been used?

What will you feed them in regular base?

Take care when keeping Tylomelania with Sulawesi shrimps. In order for Tylos to be healthy you need to feed them quite frequently, which can lead to chronic problems with high nitrates. Also, when one dies, it can be difficult to tell before they release an ammonia plume into your tank and stress your shrimps.

Beautiful pictures by the way!
