Maybe a Red Fire Shrimp which isn´t red… I dont know.

Dennis

This is a Photo of a Shrimp in my Fish Tank. I bought round about 14 Red Fire Shrimps some time ago and they all were red in color. This Shrimp seems to be the Brood and I wonder why some aren´t red. I think they either become red soon or the Offspring is going back to their natural look. I did read that these Shrimps are overbred and their red color isn´t natural. It´s overbred. Anyway this Shrimp is nice looking. I like the Pattern. If you take a Photo from close Distance, then they are looking more interesting … Continue reading Maybe a Red Fire Shrimp which isn´t red… I dont know.

This is why I have some towels there. Yesterday I was to lazy to take the towels to the washer. My cat maybe thought “Wooow.. nice place there between two fish tanks” and laid down on the towels. So I did keep an eye then.. and of course not only an eye but also my mobilephone camera… I said … Continue reading She always finds a cozy place..

Abstract Photo of Riccia fluitans Moss in my Fish Tank.

Dennis

I thought this is a Photo I must upload and add to a Blogpost. I found that Photo somewhat abstract. I took this Photo when I opened my Fish Tank. This is a Plant, to be exact this is a Moss called Riccia fluitans and it is floating on the Water Surface. Some time ago I did place this Moss on stones with a Hairnet. Many people do it. The thing is it will grow and after some time you wont see the Hairnet anymore and the Stone will keep this Moss underwater and it looks like crazy green Moss … Continue reading Abstract Photo of Riccia fluitans Moss in my Fish Tank.
