Woo I have RCS babies again. Must have happened last night. I see at least a dozen of them. It's silly I haven't been able to raise these in a dedicated tank but in my fish tank they breed like crazy. I have done 3 20% water changes and 2 serious gravel vacs since I last fed (Wednesday). I now see l...

Ok, thanks everyone. I had been feeding such a small piece and leaving it in there that I thought it was too small to pollute the water so much to impact the shrimp. Now I know that isn't the case. I will do another 20% water change tonight since my one RCS should be letting her babies go any day now.

I have an Eheim 2213 running about half power since its a bit much for the tank. The prefilter is a Hydor III sponge, it looks too fine to let the babies through. I guess i could take the filter apart and see if I find any but they would probably be too small again. They were all over the place then...

I have lots of baby CRS now! I could see them the day they hatched, they are much easier to see than RCS are. I would guess 30 from one female and 10 from another. I have one more pregnant one that will give birth any day now that is loaded with eggs too. Total time was 32 or 33 days, my water has b...

Cherry shrimp plus babies
My lone female cherry shrimp gave birth on Jan 25th. So these babies are 3 1/2 days old. I don't have a good camera or macro lens so these aren't very good but I thought they were neat. I named this one "Louis" http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r121/argblarg/fish009-1.jpg Each of the foll...
