I MacGyvered up a shrimp lolly using Shrimp King Yummy Gum and a bamboo skewer. These are my juveniles that were hatched about 3-4 weeks ago. I thought I'd put 2 blue and 2 yellow males in this tank as a clean up crew after cycling. 2 days later one of the blues was berried. Apparently dad must be yellow as all the shrimplets are wild type. I counted at least 38 in all from a still image, so minimum of 34 babbers. Well done, Mamma Blue. 🥰

Quite an entire molt. I wish I'd seen it happen. I also hope she's not going to get berried almost immediately again. Shrimp gonna shrimp I guess. #shrimptank

#shrimptank update, as it's been a while. Main tank is fairly full of red, orange and yellow, it appears most of not all of the blue ones died. We started a second tank just for shrimp with a lot less stuff in it and it's full of #orangerili and we plan to let them do their thing in their own tank.

Just managed to snap a (pretty bad) photo of one of the week old shrimplets on the back of the nerite snail. "Onward noble steed! .. oh I'm facing the wrong way". #shrimp #shrimptank

So I bought some shrimp. Ghost shrimp is what I asked for. Can anyone help identify this guy, the one who the long 'nose' and suspicious coloring? I'm pretty sure it's not what I asked for.

Edit: red nosed shrimp

All three of my ghost shrimp died last night. They were doing really well until I put an algae wafer in, then 2 of them crawled out and one just died, overnight.

Watching my shrimp is so calming. They don't even move and I like to see them.

About 6 months ago I removed all plants, fish and shrimps from one of my tanks to house a new species as well as use it as a plant nursery for aquatic-exclusive plants. I was cutting and trimming and replanting yesterday and discovered that a new population of cherry shrimp had taken hold. Apparently I didn't move all of them. Not only that, but one particular individual has a new mutation!

Would love to start keeping shrimp again, but we travel too much to give them the care they need.

The beetles got their post, let me introduce the shrimp, the fire red cherry shrimp (there’s at least 10 of them in the tank but this one I was trying to get a macro of how it was feeding. Look at its tiny little feet.
