My riffle shrimp feeding arena

[Grubs]

The pump flow jets into the corner of the tank and bounces the flow back out across the semi-circle of pebbles which provide "hang-on" spots for the shrimp. Not surprisingly this was set up to also give maximum viewing potential for me :D

Feeding (infrequently) a mix of Sera micron powder, brine shrimp nauplii, and milk paramecium that I culture as fry food (I strain out the big ones on 50µm mesh).

I also drop bits of mulberry leaf into the tank every now and then.

I've found reproduction to be very seasonal.  In the 18 months I've had them this is only the second time I've had berried females - last time was last summer.

Wow, so cool. Do Riffles need brackish water for their juvis?

Beautiful Aquascape! They looks like tiny lions drinking at the waterhole.[emoji57]
