I've just noticed that I have a load of these in my shrimpery!
Looking on various sites, there are 2 schools of thought: one school says that they are a symptom of overfeeding – I feed very 2 days, either Hikari Shrimp Cuisine or Snow flakes. The second school of thought says that they are an indication of good water quality – my parameters are all good: PH 6.5; Ammonia 0, Nitrites 0, Nitrates 5.0, TDS 102.
So, which opinion should I believe. The general consensus is that they're harmless (and in the spirit of live and let live, I'm happy to let these little creatures share with my shrimp, unless they do pose some kind of danger to them).
What are your thoughts?
