The Opae ula shrimp Forum and online store

16th August 201
Just a quick Nitrate test on my breeder tank to see if all is well and it's a zero even though I've upped their spirulina rations




Also a few images of one of the baby Opae ula's and a berried momma shrimp

That's great! They're adorable!

So tonight i went to check on my breeder tank and noticed the glass feeding dish that contains my macroalgae had moved?! i looked closer and one side was lifted up and i had shrimp underneath of it. One of the Nerites had gone under and was eating from the glass bottom of the feeding dish and was working its way back out, i had visions of the glass slapping back down and squashing some shrimp! One of the baby shrimp was under eating so i went and removed the bowl These snails are a liability

Its hard to see but hes under there lol.

Here is the snail in question They take more looking after and attention then the Opae Ula!
@Haduvokone Yup the water stays healthy and it looks after its self as long as you don't over feed the tank.

They're a whole lot bigger!

I've not seen the dark red berried female in a week or so, hope she's still carrying eggs. If she is then I should see some larvae floating around in 10 days time give or take.

Edit: never mind I just spotted her and still has eggs!

Just a few quick photos i took today, 2 of the last batch of baby shrimps together... im not sure where the 3rd was

I love these photos, Odin. The photo of a baby in front of an adult is adorable! The snail with part of the snail coming out is double adorable. I just love your photos and videos.

This is really an amazing video. To be able to photograph the process is a wonderful
thing. Well done! Thank you.

Berried mom shrimp who will have her eggs hatching very soon. A female who may get berried soon, she has her swimmerets fanned out. Another berried female has turned up!
