Has anyone ever experimented with different salinity when breeding Opae Ula?
I was wondering if a barried female would do better in higher salinity.
I base this on reading about how they behave in the wild.
I read that the barried females move down into the cracks and crevices when barried.
The vary nature of their native environment would suggest that they are going into higher salinity.
I have tried to breed Amano shrimp with some success, but had to add salt.
Just a thought...

Welcome to the forum! I have played around with salinity but stable and temperature is more important to get them breeding... in my experience

I feel that cooler temperatures are a key factor. Keep the tanks temps under 80 degrees. I feel at 84+ degrees the babies die. My ideal temp is 70 but that's not easy to do. Undisturbed, no filter, no aeration....
