berried shrimp

R.sok · 12-05-2012, 06:44 AM

When doing a shrimp count, I noticed 4 of my rcs are berried! At this point what should I do? The temp is at 72-74, should I raise or? Not feed as much?

You may want to separate if they are cohabiting with fish, otherwise leave them be a prepare to be a shrimp grandma/pa. Congrats

I agree. Don't do anything. The babies will be just fine. The hard part will be trying to find them. I can never find the little buggers. My wife always spots them but I tell her she is hallucinating. Lol. As long as they have places to hide they'll be just fine.

Kk. The shrimps only cohabit with some mts. Very excited to spot the first new born although It will be hard for me to find them

WOO HOO! I just noticed some babies in the java moss, Man they are tiny that's for sure. I wish I could take a pic of them but my iphone camera sucks

I've only had the shrimps for a little over a month

glad to see babies popping out already

Can you spot the baby?

Also just noticed another shrimp is berried

, her eggs are an olive green color? The ones on the other shrimp are yellow, This is also one of my largest shrimp
