You know I say what I feel and atm it feels like you have had more then an influence in what has been done and put into Tim's tank (who knows maybe he wanted something else but was afraid to do so). I honestly think you should let Tim do and experience for himself, I mean that is the fun of it and when you succeed after failures that is when you feel you have accomplished something great!

Jumping into TB's straight away? I don't know if he would have done so if you weren't there holding his hand through every step and putting ideas in his head. I mean if I were to get Marcus or Dean to do as you have for Tim, I would not be as satisfied with what I have learnt and achieved today in this hobby. I say let him be and learn for himself, I understand where Johnny is coming from, it seems as though you have set up a tank for yourself in Tim's house with Tim's funds!

I hope this is not the case and if this truly is not the case then I sincerely apologise but this is what it feels like to me.

Okay... so I dont hsve pictures at the moment but recently added my blue bolt in a section with a mishling (from robert) and a snow white (from matt) and the good news is that the snow white has been berried.

So I now have 2 Berried CBS and 1 Berried Snow White.

Will try and grab some photos of the blue bolt, shadow panda and the Snow White for you all.

So i haven't really done a proper update for a while, tank is going super duper well. I've had two SS CBS Girls get berried by my panda and they dropped last week and within like 2-4 days the girls have been re-berried by him again.

Also have a berried Snow White which is due next weekend.

Here is a photo of my berried Mishling due in two weeks. Both of them have been berried by my Blue Bolt.

May as well do an update while i have Tims SD card in my possession. Heres a soft update.

Shrimp have been going crazy. Hundreds of mishlings have been produced and its getting out of hand. Tibees are starting to get reproductive. Plenty of taiwan bees growing out.

      That shrimp itself survived the molt just fine, but left about half dozen eggs still in the shell. I haven't measured KH in a really long time, but assume it is zero since I don't have any rocks besides a few small pieces of lava rock.  Maybe you have unwanted rocks in your tank?  My tank is the "long" style which I really like because I have a HMF on one end, and a pump outlet spout that shoots water all the way to the other end.  I have no idea how many shimp it can support because I don't really understand waste management in a tank.  Shrimp poop eventually turns into mulm, but then what?

      Thats a great photo, beautiful blue bolt, I hope it survived the molt without dropping the eggs! I think I can just about see some black dots (eyes) on the central egg but can't be 100% sure. I used to (and plan to again) do weekly water change of 10-15% but if you do too large or quick (not drip in new water) that would likely trigger a molt. What KH are they in, my new setup is sitting at (and refusing to budge) KH 3 and PH 7.5 so I may have to settle for neocaridina shrimp this time as opposed to the caridina I want, though not looking/deciding just yet, give the tank a bit more of a run in! Tap water here starts at kH 14, tds 320, when filtered goes to KH 0 and PH 6 but when put in the tank keeps going to KH3 and PH 7.5 despite 3 x 50% water changes???? You may be at 'maximum capacity' with only 20L tank especially if the tank is a cube type rather than shallow type?

      Right now this tank only has blue bolts and golden bee (red bolts?).  The eggs start off all brown, but at the end, I notice that some are kind of a clear pink-ish color.  So I don't know if that is the egg color of dud or golden bee.  Picture of shrimp only about half hour before molting. The water is always RO + remineralizer, so it should be ok. The tank seems to still be on a "good streak" ever since I started the regimen of weekly water change, monthly gravel vac and plant trim.  The point being to keep the amount of waste low and removing moss / floating plants so that the nitrates go towards growing algae.  At one point, I had three berried females, but only netted about half dozen babies by the end, due to this early molting problem.  There might be about 30-40 shrimp total in 5 gallons, but still very few full-sized adults.
