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.

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

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

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 :-D

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