Another small breeding "colony" of Caridina cf. ba

Post by Kenshin »

Hey guys,
I have stated in my previous post that I did successfully bred the green shrimps, Caridina cf. babaulti. Well, those babies are growing slowly into semi-adult size now. However, I have around 3 female of the adults with 1 lucky male and the "moms" have been carrying eggs for almost a month now. And guess what!! :shock: Yesterday I observed little colorless shrimps of the Caridina cf. babaulti (looks like a little missile or submarine) propelling in my tank. So cute and beautiful. One of the mother shrimp hatched those eggs and have already been developing eggs in her ovaries during the time she was carrying eggs. I think she will be carrying the eggs soon after she molt. I just want to update my green shrimps to you guys because I am so HAPPY :-D .

It is always good to here of success.

The Caridina cf. babaulti are the next shrimp I would like to acquire.
The first lot ,I had, did not make it. :(

Now that I have more experience with breeding shrimp, I should have better success.

So keep the updates comming.

Have a Great Day
