Just found my first Yellow Cherry Shrimp Juvi, I've had YCS for roughly a year perhaps and this is the first juvi I've seen, was pretty happy when I saw the little bugger, been looking all over the tank for more but can't see any, tank is pretty crowded with plants anyway so good luck finding more.

 

Actually, I'm pretty stoked I got a YCS Juvi, haha.

Haha, I thought I read you weren't interested in breeding them GotCrabs. Maybe a can of worms has been opened here?

Well done man.

Lucky you  :wink:  Good luck breeding those yellow

 

Not too many around, just a handful maybe, still can't get a large number to breed, but then again I'm not too interested in breeding in that tank.

 

Keen to get some CRS breeding in my other tank though.

      Good video by Chris Lukhaup!

      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.

      Finally set up the 30L Shrimp Tank

      By sdlTBfanUK · Posted

      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.

      Pure Red Line (PRL) Shrimps Western Australia seller

      By sdlTBfanUK · Posted

      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.
