Hopefully, it will warm up here next week. It has been FREEZING cold here the last few days. About 40 east of here they got 4+ inches of snow over the last few days. :unsure:

:th_omg: Sounds like the crazy weather here, 70 degrees one day and a low of 23 degrees the next. Where the heck is Spring? :unsure:

Just around the corner, the forecast is cold winds sweeping throught the mid-states in the next couple of days so stay warm.

It is stable here in CA, 70's and sunny most days. I would like to see some rain.

Oh Happy Day!!!

They are here, everone alive and kicking. I have aclimated them and they started eating the minute I put them in the tank. Right to the bottom and started picking around for food. I even got a couple MTS so maybe they will multiply a littel.

I do have a question about the plants sent with the shrimp. I know the duckweed and Java fern but there was a third plant I don't know. Can you tell me what that was? Nice tight spaghetti roots and long single fronds, no stem. Thanks in advance if you can tell me.

And mega thanks for the little beauties. They are just to sweet. And the older (young adult?) are the most beautiful blue. The smaller run from no color in the youngest right up the saturation scale to perfect Blue Pearl. Thank you.

The dwarf chains are nice, I have some planted and others floating and they are healthy and looking good :)
