Yes, I had trouble with shrimp in my tank with AquaSoil for several months. Now, nine months later, they are doing very well and breeding. One must be patient with shrimp and AquaSoil.sns26 wrote:My amanos were awfully shy for a long while. In retrospect, I think it is because there was trace ammonia in the water. Takes a long time to fully cycle a tank.

I use Omega One Super Color Flakes. It does not contain copper and the first three ingredients are Whole Salmon, Halibut, and Seafood Mix (Krill, Rockfish & Shrimp). I buy it from PetSmart.
For the shrimp I supplement with some expensive Japanese flakes and the new shrimp gel from Rachel.

Thanks! I saw a shrimp out for a few minutes in the grass.jweis wrote:I use Omega One Super Color Flakes. It does not contain copper and the first three ingredients are Whole Salmon, Halibut, and Seafood Mix (Krill, Rockfish & Shrimp). I buy it from PetSmart.

I'll take a look at those options, currently the angels pick out all the sinking algae tabs once they've hoovered the flakes from the surface. I'll see if there are Omega One pellets that I can use to supplement the tabs - The hair grass is almost long enough to hide the food from them.
