The Endlers have had their first babies!

I know it's a case of pics or it hasn't happened, so will post those tomorrow!

Earlier in the week I decided to use my meta cube and seperate out a very heavy female endler! Only have a pair, so she was being harassed by her boyfriend.

Went out this morning to find she was much thinner than yesterday, after having dropped her 30 odd babies!! :)

Gave her the day to recover and moved her out of meta cube today, so bubs all safe and sound!

These are, I believe, red bar endlers from Lodo! Will get a pic of parents and bubs tomorrow.

Woohoo!

Not sure if they are the red bars or neon tuxedo.

Red lines have a red line down all of their body.

Neon Tuxedo sounds familiar! Did buy at Shrimp Club! Whatever their name, they are stunning mate, really looking forward to seeing how the bubs turn out!!

I'll find pictures of our red line and neon tuxedo. Endlers are my second favourite type of fish

      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.

      Hi Guys,  Does anyone know where to buy PRL shrimps in WA, not the CRS please. Thanks Regards

      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.
