    They are pretty good shrimp and its a hit or miss with them when dealing with apstasia. if they dont help much, try squirting a kalkwasser solution into the mouth. its natural and works very well. really hot water, lemon juice, apstasia x, and joe's juice also work.

    Lol, it does. I think I just have some of them hiding where I can't get to them. That is the main reason for getting the shrimp instead of going with something else, and it gave me a reason to buy another critter for the tank lol. ;D

    Lol, I guess that would be one way to take care of that problem.

    lol, thanks. I have always wanted one, and my wife bought me one today. Gotta love the wife. ;D I almost picked up cool looking pajama cardinal today for $10, but he was so small and I want to get rid of my Coral Banded Shrimp first. The darn shrimp was just grabbing at my yellow tail damsel the other day. Can't have that. He was my first fish almost a year ago lol. ;D
