HOLY CRAP - I must have bought a pregnant fire shrimp. I was inspecting the back wall of my tank after seeing a bunch of little white dots on the back wall after a water change. It's been a weird day of weird water parameters..
See the following:
TETRA KITS SUCK - Did I screw up my tank?
I notice they started moving and I started to freak out. Are they pods...Ich? WTF?
Then the more I watched I started seeing a few really small things swimming in the water column...Looked like little brooms or something.
Then suddenly, my shy little fire shrimp whom I have had all of 24 hours crawls out from (HER) rock and spews about a THOUSAND MORE into the water column !!!
What the hell do I do with this ????!!!! Will they all die and cause a massive spike in my tank?!!!
