Well I must say I'm a bit disappointed with her now -the camera can see things not clearly seen by my eyes :( She still looks white to me in the flesh and also her eggs, however the camera shows she is opaque with a yellowish tint to her eggs.

to me her eggs are much paler than normal Rili eggs and not yellow but I guess the camera doesn't lie. She also has red on her head just a bit but definitely there once the camera zoomed in. she has also dropped some eggs overnight probably due to the stress of moving twice even though there were no water changes. So here are a few picturesimg]<img src=<a href=%7Boption%7Dhttp://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b583/ineke24/DSC_0022_zpse9edbd86.jpg' alt='DSC_0022_zpse9edbd86.jpg'>

So although a bit disappointed that it isn't showing the actual colour of her eggs in the photo I at least have something to work with. In the photo she just looks like a rili with little or no colour .

I find the lighting has a lot to do with the colours we see, but the cameras filter out!

Sorry it's not what you were hoping for, she looks great though and VERY berried! :)

I was so sure she was white. it sux getting old and your eyes don't work like they used to. But never mind I live in hope that some of the babies might be whiter. It still is something to aim for.

      Finally set up the 30L Shrimp Tank

      By sdlTBfanUK · Posted

      It has been a few weeks now and I have done a couple of large water changes. I tested the water parameters this morning, GH6 and KH2, TDS 140 and PH 7.5. Obviously the PH is off but there isn't anything in the tank that should cause the PH to rise to this figure so I will just run the tank for another month with 10% weekly water changes (probably just with RO water) and see where we are at that point. The RO water tests at PH6, and the KH and GH in the tank could come down as they are at the upper limits for Caridina shrimps! There are only about 10 very small snails in there at this point, but they seem to be doing well enough.

      Pure Red Line (PRL) Shrimps Western Australia seller

      By sdlTBfanUK · Posted

      I believe these to be very rare in Australia so you may even consider making it a longer term plan and produce your own by starting with the best CRS you can get as that is where the pure lines started! Depends how patient and interested in the project you are, but would save money as well? If I recall correctly it takes from 8 generations of selective breeding? They sell them at micro aquatic shop but do not ship to Western Australia, but that means they are available in Australia. https://microaquaticshop.com.au/products/pure-red-line-grade-ss-shrimp Good luck and just maybe smeone on here may point you in the right direction or be able to supply you with some.

      Is this garden hose end alloy pipe safe to use for aquarium piping?

      By Subtlefly · Posted

      Yes it’s super accurate to position where I want now and stay there- I am satisfied.  All the fish and shrimpers are doing excellent! Coming up on 4 years running!

      You must be pleased with that, it looks better and is much more robust and less likely to damage or leaks! The tank looks very natural now it has been running for a time. I see the ember tetras, how are the blue shrimp doing, I see a few? The cat and dog look very content and unimpressed, lol.
