I've always been a fan of the low grade cherry. There's something beautiful about the wildtype look. Anyway, don't get too worried if she's not berried soon. Sometimes it takes a while and sometimes the eggs don't take. I've noticed a lot of saddled-> molt-> not saddled, repeat. Or sometimes first time mothers sometimes drop the eggs. But she looks to be a good size/age, so she'll probably hold onto them.

Cheers, I stopped feeding them like you said. Saying 1-2 days was probably an exaggeration of how often I actually got around to feeding them lol just Aswell though. I noticed first with glass shrimp that feeding them in an established tank just makes the tank dirty, but the tank I put these in wasn't heaps established. instead of feeding them pellets I just put some plastic in I'd grown algae on from another tank. lost one early this week so down to 7. Still not happy and active like they should be, ive noticed most shrimp hide when they aren't happy whether they are multing or just don't like the water chemistry or quality. In the last few weeks I dont change water often, only when tds get above 18. Nitrite always 0 and a bright pale blue zero too. Ph is neutral and stable, just some giant deckweed to keep No3 down. fair enough I'll admit I did no where near enough research before buying these, but still the shops they came from had them in standard water with other shrimp across 2 of the best aquariums in Melbourne, should I hit them up about it? Cause it's a bit much to sell a product you know nothing about and like $180 later... out of 3 or so shops and a few other people, I'm the only one that has kept any of these guys alive (barely) and im posetive that's only cause I did further research on here, and you guys told me about the Low tds.
