A tiny update: I now have 20 tanks with shrimp and corys together. As expected all the Neocaridinas are doing well. I have also now moved some shrimp from my third row and put them in other tanks as the shrimp in the bottom 2 row of tanks are doing the best. These tanks are 20-21C at the bottom row and 22-23C for the second row. I also have some Caridinas which are doing well. Tangerine Tigers are berry galore and the OEBT blondes also doing well though not berried yet possibly still young. I have two tanks of Taitibees which are doing great and starting to put on size. Looks promising for berried shrimp some time down the track. Also have CRS, CBS, CBS mischiling and SnowWhites which are also all seem to be doing well and starting to put on size.

Hi all, just an update on how things are progressing. The colour in the juvenile shrimp is holding and are getting close to adulthood, so hopefully it will stay this way as they will be the first adult blue shrimp from this line. In other news some milk chocolate coloured shrimp that i put in a seperate tank, one has almost completely changed colour. The shrimp went from brown with a light brow line down its back to a teal colour with a ligh blue stripe. I guess this further supports what @revolutionhope said in another thread, that adult brown shrimp can change colour as they get older, both from blue to brown and vice versa. Sorry for the bad picture of the "teal" shrimp.

Built in robe. There was a secret door behind it which will allow me to go outside to dump water in the garden easily among other things :-) and it enables me to squeeze in a comfy little two seater couch to hang out and chill in when the weather is too hot. [emoji173][emoji111][emoji445] will

Time for a "mess" update. Finally getting stuck into it again. Have removed the built in robe and dividers are nearly all done. Shrimps have been doing pretty well in their new temporary accommodation in the adjacent room. Still have to shift the big tank out, fix up the wall and floor etc where the BIR was, then the benches and shelves etc can come in and it will really start coming together.

The shrimp I took back into my shrimp room tanks are doing well. The blue is becoming more consistent but still too many variable blues at this stage. I am still getting chocolates and blacks with the occasional Bloody Mary .

Another quick update, turns out my phone camera is better than i thought. Images still aren't great but here are the juvenile blues from choc parents.
