Well camouflaged, must have taken you a while to spot it.

Congrats.

Would love to get a pair of king kings or pandas myself. Maybe one day.

Only reason i was looking was because i saw a the BB mammas molt on soil, and noticed a couple eggs still attached so i knew it was from her and she must have released the rest..

I searched for a while after that until i eventually found one..!

The mum never showed much blue to start with, only a little bit when berried & the shrimplets are very similar. Got a bit of work to do on them to get the colour to show up. :encouragement:

When several of my BB's don't show good colouring, I check my Ca, and add mineral powder etc.... No doubt genetics and quality are important, but WP do play a role too. I've culled BB's into my Tibee tanks, and sometimes after 2-3 months, they blossom to a dark blue, as my tiger tank has a slightly higher TDS and GH.
