I just found one of my mischling female was pregnant died this morning. She had been providing solid offsprings (fathered by one blue bolt) mostly panda and few shadow panda which I LOVE.

I just dissect her eggs and put into the breeding box and aerated. If anyone been in this situation please share any tips for those eggs? I've read this before sometime  by dissecting, taking out eggs and aerating but not sure if it's working? Have anyone tried it before? What is the success rate?

Lastly I keep forget to showcase one of CRS (last pict). When I saw him (I think it's a male) I thought I'm going to lose him consider how translucent he was when young. Usually when I have some translucent shrimps they won't last long but this one, man is a survivor. Although been categorised a very low grade (maybe B or C class) but I think he's cool

get yourself a proper egg tumble STAT! or make one up DIY. but in that container they probably won't make it. temporarily put eggs in very clean net. they don't need to be in tank, use a clean plastic cup or similar. put airstone under net and change water regularly in the cup.

how soon can you grab an egg tumbler? they are a wise investment if you can save even a handful of eggs!

Hey no worries, that was a fair win!

The net method is really only short term solution.

Which egg tumbler did you go with?

      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.

      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.

      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.
