Blue Pearl ShrimpThe Blue Pearl Shrimp is quickly becoming popular in the American Dwarf Shrimp hobby. This shrimp is a blue color variant of the Neocaridina cf. zhangjiajiensis, the same variety that the Snowball Shrimp is selectively breed from. Some of the reasons they are gaining popularity is because of their ease of care, simple food requirements and their prolific breeding habits.

Blue Pearl Shrimp are rather undemanding when it comes to their care requirements. They require a well-established aquarium that has 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites, and less than 20 nitrates. Read the rest of this entry »

exotic petsAccording to the dictionary, the only thing that a pet requires to be considered an exotic pet is to be something that is not indigenous to a particular region. However, according to that definition, any poodle or even a little Cairn Terrier or even Siamese exotic cats would technically qualify as an exotic pet. So there must be something else that defines the parameters regarding what does and does not make a pet an exotic pet.

Further research indicates that exotic can also include anything that is considered to be “exotic in nature” or have to be something that is unique and in some instances, often misunderstood. This would certainly seem to be a much more applicable definition when it comes to exotic pets. Read the rest of this entry »

Exotic Types of Turtles

Author: Nosfer | Filed under: Exotic, Pets

Anyone who owns an exotic pet knows that traditional names like Spot or Fluffy do not seem to fit the bill. So where do you go for good ideas on pet names? Some exotic pet owners start by narrowing it down to the specific type or breed of their exotic pet and go from there. If your exotic pet is from a certain remote region of the world, it would be nice to give them a name to reflect that. Depending on where your pet originated from, there are many areas of the world that can reflect unique and creative names that will help others identify with your pet and know where it came from.

Some exotic pet owners give their pets names that are specific to the natural environment or habitat in which they originally came from. This is especially nice if your exotic pet came from a tropical or other interesting location that most people do not even know about. Read the rest of this entry »
