Dear Alvin bro, thank you for all the sharings (and poisonings haha).

It is great that you are reaping the rewards for all your efforts and dedication.

Hopefully i will be able to keep some of these high quality shrimps too when i'm more experienced and confident.

Here is another shot..

Happy shrimping...

Wow! Really nice colour!

To all shrimp keepers, I believe it's a habit to just sit in front of the tank and keep staring into it with eyes lurking at every corners of the tank looking for shrimplets or some unwanted pests..

This is a habit for me every night.. (And even wife used to say I look at shrimps more then her.. Hahaha..)

I was observing this adult blue bolt with a unique 'smiley' pattern on the head..



And all of a sudden, I noticed a tiny shrimplet appearing from its hiding place in the plant... It has a very unique head and body pattern...







It's still too small to confirm on the pattern but it has a very deep black head pattern and the body has a black stripe across its back... Somewhat like a reverse pinto pattern, instead of black body and white stripe, this little baby has white/blue body with black stripe..

Lets just hope that it grows up nicely and see a nice pattern on it..
Might be something new (I hope.. haha)

Thanks for sharing picture of your beautiful shrimps bro.

Same thing here... My wife said I am spending too much time in my fish house...
I replied that at least I am with shrimp ladies, not with other ladies.

It has been quite some time since I have updated on shrimps photo.. Been busy with work and also last night just clean up the front panel of glass.. So here you go..

Now I shall update my Pure Black Line..
They are growing well..



One of my favorite female mama.. At the back with their F1 batches of shrimps growing big and strong..



Deep intense blue female mama which I am have in my tank.. She has been hiding and she gave birth to quite a number of little shrimplets recently...

Today, she is out for her walk again...


She is doing a little stretching and exercising.. Hahaha



And last but not least of the blue bolts today will be that weird little pattern shrimplet who have grown up a little bit more...



Happy shrimping...

Merry Christmas and a happy new year to all...

Damn nice blue there...
Noticed that your tank really less planted. This is better for shrimp is it bro?
Btw without chiller these shrimp wont survive is it?
Sonething like 27.5 avg temp

Thanks for the compliments..

For the density of plants/mosses, I think greatly depends on the shrimp keeper/breeder.. Some like to have big clumps of moss for shrimps to hide, others like bare tanks with minimal plants..
Having more plants might helps in reducing the nitrate levels though especially floating ones (but they are a pest.. Hahaha)

I won't advise to keep them in temperature higher then 26 deg Celsius.. Tanks without chiller have high fluctuating temperature which I believe is not good.. (Aircon rooms not included.. Haha) For me I am keeping them at a 24-26 range...

[mukyo]

Haha.. no chance for me then.
Just be happy with my cherries and greenies.

Btw shrimps are night feeding right?
I feed every other day now. I hope thats ok.

Well, don't say that.. It's good to try out.. They are very nice to keep and I have learnt a lot..

I am feeding my shrimps nightly because there are quite a few of them.. But of cause alternate day feeding or even once every 3 days is fine, just feed based on your shrimp population (or your feeling.. Haha)

Nice shrimp! Where did you get them from?
