I checked on everyone this morning and saw one of my tiger shrimp has eggs! I was quite surprised because I was expecting my cherries to get eggs before the tigers.
The eggs are green and she's "juggling" them with her swimmerettes.

I'm keeping my finger's crossed and buying a sponge to cover the filter just in case.

I never expected to get eggs from my tigers.....I was worried enough about keeping them alive since they are more delicate than cherries.

I guess I got my Easter Eggs. :wink: :D

As I mentioned i'm just happy the shrimp got eggs.....whether she drops them after a few days or not I don't know.....whether I get any babies, well I don't know that either but it's the first time i've seen any of my tigers with eggs so wish me luck. :-D
