Some photos taken earlier from the tank.

 

This shows just how small the juvenile short finned common bristlenose are.

So before lights out last night I had a look at the tank to see how everything is going and Dad has decided to let all the juvi Bristlenose out of the cave to explore, all were sitting together on the cave chilling out with Dad next to them, all up so far I have 10 juvenile Short Finned Common Bristlenose, it's the first time I've had fish breed in any of my tanks so I'm pretty happy with that.

Doesn't bother me that they are mixed, I've heard it all before, haha, I'm also not interested in breeding for profit so again doesn't bother me, just like a tank with shrimp in it.

Some more photos.

 

Here is one of my CRS.

A berried Chameleon which changed colour to a nice dark rose, see the pale white stripe down the back.

Can't believe how tiny the juvenile Bristlenose are.

Have more CRS coming, so once they are in and comfortable I'll throw some photos up of them.

Pretty sure it's a Chameleon as it has a white strip down it's spine like a Chameleon, some of the other Chameleons have gone the same.

Put some pieces of Blyxa Japonica, Anubias Nana and more Bolbitis Heudelotii in this morning, was again well looked after by Serene Aquarium, again couldn't ask for better service, tank is getting towards the full stage though, haha, might be time to ease off on the plants.

 

Water Wisteria is going great, growing really well and needs a trim, Bacopa is going mental and some stems are sticking out of the water.

 

Yeah... tank is going really well, for a change.

      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.
