Just a little update on my Red Tibees -unfortunately I lost my TB's last year -happily replaced by Newbreed with 2 gorgeous red boys- so my program for red marbled Tibees had to make do with CRS however I'm slowly getting some results. The marbling in the reds is not as good as in the blues and blacks but now I have TB blood hopefully I can get some improvement in colour intensity . I now have a few F2 Red Tibees and some new F3 babies coming on. Unfortunately the mother of the first reds is a giant Tibee and she always lost her eggs week 2 until she got to 18 months and then she finally held. It looks like her daughters are the same as they have been berried several times but week 2 lost their eggs. At least there are a few other Tibees that hold theirs and thats where the new babies are coming from. I'm really looking forward to these bigger girls finally giving me some babies- especially since they are in with the TB's. There is still a lot of work to do but at least I now have some stock to do it with. The Red Tibees are not as prevelant as the normals I must say and getting the females to actually breed is the sticking block at the moment but I have the time and dare I say the patience so we shall see what happens from here. -Jamies boys are a bit slow they still haven't got any of my girls berried I may have put too many in there for them!! the terrible twins waiting for them to get to work

Trident will grow in many conditions You should be fine :)

Beautifull shrimps ! When you had the females dropping their eggs was the soil borneowild by any chance ?

Those terrible twins are gorgeous.

Yep thats planaria alright.

Good job ineke....you're a good momma! :)

I love them!!!

I use that Freeze dried blackworms too ! From Tech Den? My fish go nuts too. Cut the cube in half with a sharp knife if it's too big for the fry. They are colouring up already. Well done Ineke !

We are 21 today 21 today- days that is! The spawn is growing so quickly the big ones are 1cm already. Here are just a few pictures!

Looking good mate

It looks like an Oribatid mite. Common in soil. Some are aquatic. http://www.mdfrc.org.au/bugguide/display.asp?type=9&class=16&subclass=41&couplet=0
