corrosionjerry Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 I came home and guess what is in my shrimp tank... submerged My florecent light usually attached to the side had fallen in and was all black and burnt... you would think that the shrimp would of been fried... they were all fine no damage / just a burnt out light fixture....

corrosionjerry Posted May 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 It was my green shrimp tank.... I am going to rename them to electric greens... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oneiroid Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 The same thing happened to me a couple years ago, only it cost me 6 beautiful discus. Shrimp are tough little buggers - they were probably just wondering why you shut off the light so early! I think 'electric greens' is definitely aproproate.
