Shrimp Journal- Moved around some shrimp this weekend- Berried Wine Red

 The OEBT are in their own tank now and out of the breeder box. Mostly they like to hang out inside the cholla wood and there's only 10 in there so the tank still looks empty. 

Shrimp Journal- All the berried shrimp- Yellow tank reset

 The Yellow Neo's tank got a reset today. This is the last of the three dirted tanks I wanted to rear down, rinse out all the potting soil, and set back much simpler. 

Shrimp journal- Ordered my fav shrimp, Ghost Bees! H2O2 treatments

My jade/aura blue tank is giving me fits. I've had two berried aura blues, and one berried jade in the last few weeks drop their eggs. I was so excited to have those first berried aura blues. It's almost like what ever makes the eggs sticky on the underside of the female shrimp wasn't sticky enough. An egg or two could be seen dangling and in irritation she'd try and flick them off. Next thing you know, she's kicking off most of the eggs as others come loose. Here's a pic of it happening to a blue dream a while ago. You can see the eggs dangling underneath her. 

Shrimp Journal 6- Ordered my first real Caridina shrimp

I was super excited to start with real caridina shrimp. The aura blues are a kind of an in between shrimp. Scott let me order some supplies on Amazon. I got a couple new lights, some airline connector valves, and my first crystal red and crystal black shrimp. I love these shrimp. My favorites are the ones with more white to red/black, two little white dots on the back of the carapace in the black/red. I only ordered five of each, so it's going to be a while before this colony starts doing anything.
