still have my red rili blue genes, i got 10 CRS from Newbreed when all mine died just before i swapped over to R/O water then when i won that library comp squiggle happily sent me some CRS instead of the posters and magazines cause i already had them :D

 

In terms of my red rili blue genes i got 5 good solid girls i brought last year from Gary, and 1 blue male and 1 blue female (meant to be a boy) which are nearly breeding age. All my red rilie blue gene males and cherry culls from them go into a breeder box as i am wanting to breed blues. I have an amazing photo of my blue cherry but i am saving it for photo comp lol :P cause i dont normally get photos that good.

 

I am looking to find a really low grade blue bolt or similar not for breeding but to see if i can keep them alive at the moment

      One interesting thing he mentioned was "Bacteria pressure", which I guess just means number of bacteria around.  Yet I see all these other videos from shrimpkeepers bragging about how much bacteria their filtering system holds. Also interesting is no mention of using anti-biotics to treat bacterial infection.  I think that has fallen out of favor recently.

      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.
