    Wow Daric... you are so "poetic"... I just think that as long as the tank is in use, chances for leakages is lessen.

    Just to report back, I found a berried PRL in my new tank a few days ago! Hopefully, she will be the first of many to come.

    Re: Finally... CRS shrimplets

    I found 2 crs babies, guess only few days old in my fan chilled tank. I am not keeping the hopes up that there are more babies, as the mama was not carrying many eggs. The red stripes are not so obvious yet, still quite faint. They are my first pair of accomplishment after about 3 months of trying.
    Hope they will survive through.

    Normally there should be more. Couldn't be just 2. Maybe there's more in the hiding. Hope you get more surprises soon. ")

    Thanks for your kind words! But because I'm not running a chiller, I'm not sure if I would be that lucky. I think I'm considered lucky already to be able to keep the berried mama alive from day 1 she had eggs until she gave birth. The weather was so hot previously and I am almost about to give up on crs until in future I have the luxury to set up a chiller.

    Re: Finally... CRS shrimplets

    Just to share, it was a journey full of ups and downs. First mama lost eggs shortly after I upgraded her to a bigger tank, thought she gave birth because she was holding on to the eggs for about a month, but then no babies.
    Second mama died with her eggs. Third mama dropped eggs after 1 week. Fourth and fifth mama was berried when I bought them but then 1 dropped her eggs and the other died with her eggs about to give birth few days after I introduced into my tank.. Tried artificial hatching but failed.
    So many disappointments! But finally today, I get to see 3 babies! Hope they do well!
    But now I have no more berried mamas

    Re: Finally... CRS shrimplets

    Just want to share my recent experience. I have a new tank of PRL for a month, they are all doing very well, no death, but also no berried shrimps. About a week ago, I decided to feed them lowkeys B18 power protein (described by Mr Tenji Tsunematsu, head honcho of Lowkeys as viagra for shrimps) and within the week, I spotted 2 berried shrimps! In my other tank, I also spotted a berried chocolate shrimp after feeding the same. While this may be a coincidence, I'm quite convinced that the B18 power protein does work to some extent.

    Now I'm curious to find out if the Mosura Brood Care can boost mating activies on the female end... If it works, it will be a nice complement to the B18 power protein.
