finally

[fishorama]

Last night I finally saw a baby cherry shrimp! I went to pick out a small uneaten flake out of the java moss & it jumped away. I knew there must be some somewhere even if the threadfins & galaxies get a few.

I've had the shrimp since Feb & berried females almost always. I think I've studied buckets of detritus almost as much as the tank looking for vacuumed babies.

Sweet! I think I got like 8 from msjinkzd...now I have way too many to count. These things may force me to get another tank.

Thanks. I found another one, even bigger, almost 1/4 inch. Maybe they are getting braver.

It does take them a bit to feel comfortable...then they start coming out more, then they start multiplying like crazy.

glad to hear your shrimp are populating.
