journal Red rilli-my new found love ;)

[Kev]

This will be my red rilli shrimps tank. At first I wasn't really a fan, but after have a few on my tank. They have grown on me and now I am loving them. For all the different pattern on their body. Each and every one is so different.

Here are some pic:

I was having tds problem with my tank after going fir a year or so without water change. Now it is slowly dropping after doing small water change 4l per day with ro water.

cheers

Very nice setup. I love your Aquascape!

I wasn't to fussed on red rilli's when I first saw them online, but after getting some they have grown on me heaps. I especialy like how you can clearly see the eggs of a berried female!

Here is a pic I took a few days ago with my diy macro lens:

Very nice Kev...Love the blue gene red rillis...Hopeing that I'll start a tank filled with them..Also like the various patterns they produce...Thanks for the pics

[Kev]

I've move all of my rilli into a 3ft tank with minimum plant so I can see them clearer ;)

just found this berried female this morning. Normally the eggs is yellowish colour, but this one have greenish/blueish eggs.

Sorry for bad iPhone pic, hence the colour is not true.

[Kev]

Any idea if the colour of the eggs determine the colour of the shrimplet ;)

i notices some have yellowish eggs and some have greenish/blueish eggs.

yellow eggs

Greenish/blueish eggs

Cheers.

Everybody who has rilis asks this question & I'm pretty sure there is no particular reason for it :victorious:

Cheers mate. I will keep a close eye on their baby and see if I can see any different.

Spot the ugly duckling.;()

That's a pretty harsh way to talk about the RCS/Pumpkin/blue velvet/gold wild type or the CRS, which one do you consider the Ugly Duckling?
