    • @mfskarphedin
      @mfskarphedin 5 років тому

      Adam Conklin remove the fish to a bucket of tank water. Vacuum the gravel very thoroughly. Switch it out and watch for an ammonia spike, which probably won’t happen. When you refill, I’d add back enough of that tank water so that you’re only really doing a 50% water change, not 100%.

    Yeah, true alage eaters like amano shrimps, nerite snails, and otocinculus are algae eating machines. Which is why people tend to starve their otos or amanos because after all the algae is eaten, owners forget that algae is their main diet and if your tank doesn't have algae anymore or at least very minimal then the algae eaters are gonna starve unless you supplement with algae wafers or plants

    Adding livestock to deal with algae is not the answer because the critters you add may not eat the algae and just add to the bioload, You should only add livestock because you want that fish or critter not because it will keep the tank clean, thats the fish keepers job. If you have algae look at the root cause and deal with that, Eg too much/not enough light, water quality, stocking levels, plant nutrients, if you use CO2 check that.

    These are pretty impressive shrimps.. if they don't like the water they will climb out of your tank and chances are you will find it dead in your kitchen or hall or wherever, they can live out of water for few minutes so sure excellent shrimps but difficult to maintain and almost impossible to breed.
