29 Gal CRS Journal

haha I know Andrew... For sure I'm going to keep this next scape with Flame Moss on the driftwood and keeping the substrate clear of plants. It will be a big tank of FLAME moss in the center! :-) FLAME ON

been a while since i updated...

Within 2 weeks I now have 6 berried CRS!!

I just tied down some java moss to some rocks and the rock on the very far left is tied with mini pellia. Right side is marsiela minuta, right back corner is flame moss.

Can't wait till the moss grow out!

when babies are available...let me know!

Luichenwai · 06-27-2008, 03:51 AM

:-) I can't wait till all 6 females release the babies! I"m guessing if all survive... I should be expecting 30+ baby CRS!!

Luichenwai · 07-09-2008, 06:41 PM

Its been a Long time since ive updated here.
So a few of the females released some of the baby shrimp. I see them EVERYWHERE. and they are very very small. Hopefully they will all survive and make it through (I wouldn't see why not).

I had a total of 6 berried females. I think 4 of them are still berried, but should be releasing this week/next week. VERY Excited!

Your pictures no longer work...

Luichenwai · 07-09-2008, 06:47 PM

oops
I'll post more recent pics tonight. The moss i tied onto the rocks are slowly growing out of the mesh. Hopefully in a month or 2, they will become nice and fluffy

wayneside · 07-11-2008, 02:09 AM

how are the babies coming along?

**ZooTycoonMaster** · 07-11-2008, 02:16 AM

How are you keeping the temperature down?

Luichenwai · 07-11-2008, 02:25 AM

Babies are great. I counted over 15 of them already and 4 females are still berried! They are SUPER SMALL. Definitely found 4 CBS :-)

Temp is around 74*. My condo stays around 72*F.

I might take out the marsiela minuta so i can have more viewable area of shrimp.

Luichenwai · 07-17-2008, 03:09 PM

update.

2 females still berried. I just briefly counted over 30 babies !!! Mix of Reds and Blacks. Nice coloring on them already too!

Can't wait till they get bigger so I can take pics and grade them!

wayneside · 07-26-2008, 04:17 PM

I am definitely interested in some Crystal Blacks! Can't wait to see pics!

Luichenwai · 07-26-2008, 04:47 PM

ok so i did another count... theres around 100 BABIES!!!! AHHHHHHHH

**mizu-chan** · 07-26-2008, 04:55 PM

You tried counting all of them?! Wow...
haha. Congratulations!

BTW your pictures don't work anymore ):

Luichenwai · 07-27-2008, 03:53 AM

Well, I"m not sure where i was going with the setup lol.. Just kinda threw it together and kept changing it and couldn't decide on 1 setup.

What I want is a really Basic look. No stem plants. Just something in the middle. Maybe 1 piece of driftwood with moss on it and thats it. I figured I would want to have a better view of seeing the shrimp instead of a crazy planted tank.

The plants on the left.. I'm not sure but i might take them all out. Any suggestions?
