Scrimp, the smallest shrimp I've been able to catch a pic of is in my green shrimp thread, and it's a few weeks old. There's no way I could find a newborn in my tank. I've seen them, and they're TINY!

Got a pic of one of the moms-to-be...



And I'm not sure, but this might be one of the boys. Could this be the one who's been gettin' busy with all the girls?

Congrats! They look really cute! Can't wait for my baby shrimps to grow up to see a male in there.

Thanks ming.

I just had another look in the tank, and make that three pregnant cherries.

Wow, how the heck do you get such crystal clear pictures? Do you have a waterproof camera you lower into the tank or what?
I can't wait to get my cherries and see em packed with eggs. The sweet part about cherries is that you don't have to do the whole brackish water rearing and sweating thing.

Hey Amanda, I think you need a bigger tank soon!
Comparing to the pictures that thgng posted earlier, the picture above sure looks like a male cherry. Congrats!

Amanda's tank is big enough to house a lot more shrimps ... trust me on that one ..

Hee. I dunno. It's awfully misleading. You look at my tank and you only see a couple shrimp, but there are a lot of them in there.

How's things at your end Amber? How are the babies?

Things are looking "cooler" (temperature wise) and the babies have grown, the lassies seems to be fattening up and growing faster than the laddies ...

Hey, pity the son is going out trick or treating, otherwise we would have popped by your place and trick or treat ...

The we can go and buy Oleg and treak or treat at HIS place ... hehehahahaha .....

Hey, any more recent photos of your lassies then?

Nope. No new photos. But make that five... and counting!

Have fun trick or treating!

Wow 5 lassies and counting ... kewl!

Well ... hubby made some kids either dance or sing before getting their treats

Oh that's so mean!

I always hated that when I was a kid.

Our best singer was a little boy about 3 or 4 ... something about a bay song ... and the others were rap songs ... songs by Tupac

They were very well mannered kids and sporting as well

Eeek! We're up to seven!

Should I start getting worried? I'm about to be overrun by baby shrimp...!!!

Tell me you have more than one male in there.
