And if you have a decent camera feel free to post some pictures over time so other people can see the progression from juvenile to adult.

I don't have a digi camera. But I will get one by the end of the week.

You should start selling good digital cameras cheap here. Every new member ends up needing one!

Mustafa-
by slow growing, how long will take for them to grow to adulthood?

Evil little shrimp! One killed a ghost shrimp twice his size, over a coconut cave.

the smaller ones just hover away.

From what I have heard Macros are the more agressive shrimp as you have seen. Sorry about your loss

Not to sound mean or anything thing but they will eventually become food for the macros.

Give them a few months.

Thanks mustafa. The macros are eating the dead ghost, the ghost is going to a good cause.

Well, I can't imagine anything more nutritious for a carnivorous shrimp than another shrimp.

It's good for shrimp because it's made from shrimp

I'll be following your reports on your experience with this "new" species.
