A ray of hope… but than again!!
Good morning. Seems like things are looking up this morning. I fed them this morning with the live shrimp that was delivered with, and after a few minutes my girl actually ate two!!! YES!!
The boy, well, he is still turning his back to me as if to say, "You tore me away from my drinking buddies……..life sucks!!!" But, he was eyeing the food… So I’m thinking he just needs a little more time.
Ok, now the BUT part…. over night it seems I have lost over half of my shrimp!! I don’t know why…. I took some water out and put some of my tank water in and gave them a bit flake food.
Continuing at that rate, by tonight or latest tomorrow morning they will all be gone.
This morning I tried exchanging even more water, hoping I’m doing good and not that that was what they couldn’t take and I should have left the original water….
Now I feel like I am under time pressure to get my babies to look at the frozen food. I have never seen shrimp like that in any of my LFS stores here.
Any suggestions?
