Yeah, to be honest I knew in the back of my mind that this supplement was sort of unnecessary but It was $7 and I know the guy struggles to keep his business afloat. I don't mind tossin a couple dollars in the guys pocket so he can keep his shop runnin. Shrimp still acclimating though, will post pics when I get him in there, another 30 mins or so prob

I'll post pics in a bet, I'm kind of doing a half a** acclimation, just letting a little more tank water in every 10 minutes. I wana try for at least 1 hour acclimation. been reading lots about how easily cleaner shrimps die when introduced into new environments where the water may have different parameters. kinda nervous so I wana give it time. 21 more minutes and 2 more introductions of my tank water and pics in 25

LOL. just saved one of my hermit crabs. there are a couple old clam shells that have merged onto my LR and have become a part of it over time and one of my blue leg hermits was stuck inside of it. I thought he was just hangin out past day or so, but i could barely get him out of there. had to pop the shell loose with a plastic knife, hes moving around now and seems happier!

Fail pictures I guess. Anyways I'll just bump this and we'll be on page 4 soon enough hahah. I'll figure how to resize future pics.
But in the mean time
since my tank by now is at least 1 gallon short, and I have almost 4 gallons mixing right now, what would you think of this.
I want to add 1 gallon tonight. (To bring the temp up to proper water level)
Then can I have this salt water keep mixing for 2 days and do a WC wednesday? or would that be too long to let the water mix..
