Re: Red Cherry Shrimp - Group buy.

<------- at mike's at least every other day for some unknown reason...although tonight I'm getting a special tank delivery woth fish I've never had and it's destination inside my house is still unknown.... lol I'm beginning to think I live for uncertainties.  I am thinking I would like to have some of those cherry shrimp though.  I mean.... my extra angels, my red fin, my shellies (who are doing very well AND reproducing already)...may need some extra grounds crew.  Mike? More shrimp?

Angels will go after the shrimp and the shellies are hit & miss.

Re: Red Cherry Shrimp - Group buy.

I have baby shrimp!!

I can only count 5 so far, and theyre red already? Absolutely tiny. How many shrimp do you get on average from a 'spawn'?

Re: Red Cherry Shrimp - Group buy.

Depends......

Re: Red Cherry Shrimp - Group buy.

Would 5 likely be the whole spawn?

I know theres no magic number, but your bound to have a guesstimate number?

Re: Red Cherry Shrimp - Group buy.

Sometimes thay have a small clutch, sometimes large.

I have seen some berry up with only a but a couple eggs while others have tons! 5 sounds like a reasonable clutch average I have seen about 10-20.

Re: Red Cherry Shrimp - Group buy.

Alright, thanks.
I dont know if theres more in the tank that i cant see, or whether it was just 5.

Re: Red Cherry Shrimp - Group buy.

Are you feeding them? Do they have moss clumps to forage on?

In my RCS tank I have lots of moss and I can see most of the super specs of babies running around.

Yeah, i transferred a huge clump of christmas moss over to that tank a couple of weeks ago. Only noticed the babies yesterday.

I believe if you come out to the GHAC meeting at Mike's you can pick some up from Mike's.  At least last week he still had some left.. not many, but still had some.
