Hope they will grow up nicely.. Happy to see them eating well..

Update after a long while..

Tidy up my tank, clear up as much brown diatoms as I can in the KK tank..


Trying not to do too much in the tank or stir up the substrate.. Shrimps are all doing well.. So if nothing is wrong, don't mess around.. Haha...

Feeding time...

There has been many shifting and selective breeding going on from my CRS flowerhead tank..

Initially I placed them in only one tank but right now they are given 3 tanks to shift around.. From breeding tank, juvenile tank and mix tank...

Here are the photo from the juvenile tank.. They are growing well... Percentage of mosura and flowerhead offspring is getting higher..

wa so many! must pay you a visit soon Alvin

thanks huizhong... not as many as some hobbyist out there.. just trying to breed and improve them even though they are just CRS with no pure genes..

This is the video taken when there is a swimming frenzy in my CRS Flowerhead tank.. Inside are mainly juveniles and they seems to be swimming 'happily'...

It has been a trend to keep some fancy pattern shrimps.. Well, I can't resist the temptation and tried a pair of them sometime beginning of the year.. But there has been no results until earlier this week.. Let's hope that these little babies don't let me down...





There are still more of these little fellas around in the tank, 2 of them has stripes like the photo, a couple has 2-3 stripes across the back.. Now just have to wait and be patience about what 'they' grow up to be..

Guess patience is the key to this hobby..

Happy shrimping everyone and have a great weekend...
(Wishing all Mothers a Happy Mother's Day this Sunday too.. - including my mum, my wife, and my female mama shrimps!)

wow new pattern? what are you gonna name it?

[alvinchan80]

wow new pattern? what are you gonna name it?

Not really new pattern... It's quite commonly seen already...

Lets wait till they are bigger to be sure they are what I think they are...
It's the first time I tried breeding Tibee, so what pattern they breed out might have different patterns variations, I am not sure until they are bigger...

[alvinchan80]

Been quite awhile since I updated these little fellas.. They have grown up well.. Hope to see more of these soon..

Guess they are close to spotted head tibee.. Too many variations of patterns from them.. But let's see how they grow as they are bigger..
