Great Surprise!

So yesterday i go to my lfs to get some java moss for my new cherry shrimp tank (No inhabitants yet), and i pick a ball of it a little bigger than a softball for $6. Awesome! so i put it in my tank and about an hour later i thought i saw something moving. So i lean in to take a close look and i see one juvenile Cherry Shrimp (maybe a 1/4"). Best java moss experience ever!

lol i should add that to my list..... might come with extra fish/inverts.... i have somehow sent out fry a couple times and they lived in java moss. no idea how but they did.

I don't know why, but apparently small cherry shrimp fry get attached to my java moss every time I remove it.. When I put it into another tank at least 3 dash off.

the wierd part is i had the java moss in the bag with no water for a good 3 hours before i put it in my tank. the little guys seems happy though. lots of places to hang out.
