Cardinal Shrimp

[sunkenmetal]

I am not a fan of the way the CRS look.. They almost look like they were spray painted.

Tim seems to be working on shrimp that are even less common than cardinals! hes on teh edge!

[R_sustaita]

yeah, but cardinals arent that common. and yes CRS are great, i really enjoy them on my desk.

[Totenkampf]

CRS are nice too, just because they are more common doesnt mean less desirable to me. I just think I would like to be part of keeping the TR cardinals around locally since Tim is moving on to other less common shrimps.

dang it. i jsut got my CRS. maybe next month i will get some cardinals.

[sunkenmetal]

i want to get some cardinals. but i can only have one desk tank at the office and one at home. its hard to choose between crs and cardinals both of them are amazing creatures .

cardinals hands down. CRS are the new cherry shrimp

Nice!! That is frikkin awesome. I want cardinals one day too.

Beautiful shrimp tank Alfonso! Looks really clean. Any FTS updates?

I will try and get some updated pics this week for you Bee.

Nice! I really want to try cardinals after I get my crs tank going. What ph are you running on the tank that you can have snowballs and cardinals in the same tank? I though cardinals needed like 7.8-8.2 ph

These are in a tank that has Black Diamond blasting grit, which has a ph of ~7.9. Snowballs are pretty hardy and can tolerate up to 8.0 for a ph from what I have read. Snowballs are also breeding like crazy.

are these original from Tim's stock?

Yes, these came from Tim.

yeah they do and Houston's tap water is just ideal for them.
