Life Is...a bowl of cherries

**waterfaller1** · 05-08-2008, 12:05 AM

Or in this case a nano of cherries.
I decided to take the fish out of the nano that has my cherry shrimp & redfront shrimp today. I just flipped on the light to check and wow..I have some beautiful bright red cherry shrimp that have been hiding! And..I spied some baby shrimp..my first!!!

I have one female that has so many eggs, she looks like she is having a tough time keeping them all together. Amazing.
I know..no big deal to some of you seasoned shrimp keepers, but to me this is a good sign.

A few years later and its always a happy day when there is a new berried shrimp, be it a cherry or a CRS!

Congrats, and hope you have many more.

Granted I was looking for a large glass bowl with a bunch of cherry shrimp and moss but whatever..

It is always exciting to find babies and adults that you didn't know you had no matter what type you keep.

Enjoy!

I know how you feel! You never have babies or berried females, and all of a sudden one day you look in and they're there. It gets you so excited!

Thanks everyone. I have seen berried blue pearls in the 10, but have not seen babies yet. If I could just get the blue tigers and CRS to berry up I will be thrilled.

WTG! It is a great feeling isn't it and your BT and CRS will berry up and have young as well in a short time I bet. Can't wait to see some photos.
