My first pregnant Golden Shrimp

No worries, once your shrimps are comfortable in your tank, they will continually breed. I am sure you won't have to wait too long.

Ok thanks for the information.

As long as you do not see her corpse, then still got chance.

Sorry i don't mean to curse you or so, i thought if is really dead for a while, it will sometimes be eaten by other shrimps so may not be possible to see the corpse unlike fish. If dead, sure can find corpse right?

Anyway all the best to you, it must be well alive hiding somewhere. Cheers.

Of course, after so many days since the day the missing shrimp thread was posted, I think most likely that it is dead. Conversely, if it went missing for one day, there is still likelihood that it is hiding somewhere.

Just to update, found the female Golden again, but no more eggs and no shrimplets............. ...... think my tank condition is no good....

The shrimplet will be very small.. try harder to find it.

Many more to come...

bro~ just wait a week or so! maybe give birth le lei!
Good luck^^

Yeah, even though CRS shrimplets carry the distinctive markings and colouration, they are really really tiny.

I'm talking less than 1mm size, its very hard to see them, especially in a planted tank.
Give it a few weeks, and be careful when doing water changes, don't suck the little guys up!

don't see doesn't mean not there. be careful during water changes. always check the pail before pouring the water away. in a couple of weeks, you may get a surprise.

Thanks to all bros for your advice

I do understand that shrimplets are very small indeed, however when my sakura gave birth I am able to see them on the wall of the tank, but seems to me the golden did not manage to get the eggs into shimplets I think as it been few weeks already, hence I don't think there is anymore survival.

So no choice will wait for it to get pregnant again.....

By the way recently also saw one of my sakura got pregnant again, however saw the eggs on the belle area seems like dropping out, it tangling around so not sure what went wrong.

Maybe wait for a while when they appear out of no where and give you a big surprise

Well bro I sure hope so..... that is teh least I can do now.....hahah

[goody992828]

Haha this morning found 1 golden and 1 BDS carrying eggs again, hopefully this time round can give me some offsprings.....

[altezza_87]

just sharing my experience, I used to have really nice sakuras which berried but due to some reason it suddenly died. But when I saw the 2 black dots on all the eggs, i used a stick to dig it out from the dead shrimp and put the eggs back into the water. 1 to 2 days later I saw fries swimming in my tank. I am only left with that pregnant shrimp in my tank, so I believe it works!

Hi Guys

At last I manage to see some CRS shrimplets on the moss, so tiny that i have to strain my eyes till almost pop out. But worth it, kind of excited thou.

But question, can those small little thing be graded when they are so young?

[goody992828]

usually can. I can spotted mine as Hinos and probably golden crs. But as they grow older their pattern will change a bit. I got a crown Juvenile 1 month ago, now no more cos the red starts to overlap the white.

I mix my tank with crs and sakura and both have few pregnant but how come I only see sakura shrimplets but not crs? Really thought of just focusing on rearing only crs in this case.
