Hello all.
I've had a look but there doesn't seem to be that many recent threads on micro crabs and was wondering if anyone has them as of now..
I am considering buying a few for my shrimp tanks but it would be great to get some feedback from someone that actually has them.
Are these wee guys reasonably hardy? I would have to guess not particularly and i wouldn't like to add them only for them to die off really well hidden and pollute the water..
what kind of water parameters are you keeping them in and what else is in the tank with them? I have read they need to be in with other inverts as they are easily picked off - this makes sense.
my best guess that whatever is good for shrimp will be equally as good for these wee fellas..
I gather they are very shy but do they become more at ease as time goes by? I would like to see them at least to confirm they are still alive but apart from that I understand they like planted tanks with plenty of greenery.
any comments, tips, experiences would be great thanks.
