Thanks for sharing, John! That's a cute little snowball shrimp.

And yes, they are just as prolific as RCS as long as you keep them happy.

I can count 45 baby Snowballs.
The sizes range from 1/8 inch to alittle over a 1/4 inch.
I will try to post pictures as soon a I can get a picture good enough to post.

I have loads of moss balls and my cherry shrimp like to hang out in a "crease" in one of my largest moss balls (it's the size of a coconut).
