Yes, i think they do, beside Mosura Gravidas, i also use BW Vigor and Mosura Eros(rarely cos overdose have adverse effect), but you need time for it to took effect, but other necessary criteria must be meet first especially CRS(water temperature etc) , but if only for RCS then it much easier , i setup one new 1 feet (36l tank, air cooled max 28'c) . dump in 15 selected high red rcs(baby from berried fire red i brought), around 1cm length, feed them Vigor and gravidas as part of the food routine, a mths plus now 4 berried. and another 5 have eggs in the ovaries.
Before that i never have a berried RCS in my first 5 mths rearing them and i have to resort to find/buy berried fire red in LFS(recalling the experience , it was very exciting & chaotic as those berried one normally getting snapped up once stock arrive) so have to take leave just to get it.  tongue.gif phew...
My 5 crs also berried now. thumbup.gif

Nice reviews. So far my tanks are all kept in air conditioned room. Fire red no problem...they are blooming like mad. But as for the CRS, they somehow stopped berring for some reasons. I ve tried all the Mosura and Borneo product for breeding shrimps. So far still nt much effect. Ph stable, temperature stable at 25-26. Wonder if it's the trace elements issue...but one thing for sure...all my Fire Yellow and sunkist cant seems to survive...dunno y. Any one has any idea? Fire red surviving but fire yellow or sunkist dying issue...sifu sifu pls give some advise.

You try lower your temperature to 24'C, mine last time at 25'c , none of my CRS berried as well and those CRS who was brought berried and giving birth, the CRS shrimplets died after 3 days.
Fire yellow i like, can pm me the breeder you get it from, outside price selling more then normal crs.
Sunkist shrimps..ummm it is like orange or diiferent? , google result showing sunkist like an orange shrimps, you mind take a picture of
your sunkist shrimps and post here for a look?


Added on April 21, 2012, 4:04 am

Have some truth in it cos CO2 will lower water PH, sensitive shrimps like CRS can't tolerate PH swing especially your tank is small and not enough
PH buffer.
That why i remove my CO2 system and convert to shrimps tank.
Oh, remove SAE if have one in your shrimps tank , those sucker is shrimps killer especially when your shrimps just molt. Otto is safe though.
*
I will try to lower it to 24. Hopefully they can start berring soon. The breeding season stopped for a month now.
The fire yellows i got from singpore, im nt sure who is selling here in KL. I am looking for them too, and some chocolate shrimps too. Hehe
I got them from sg at about rm14-18.
Ok i will try to post some pics of the sunkist if i can shoot some clear pics. haha

Use New Amazonia better , malaya tend to lower PH too much. i'm using New Amazonia in my main tank, PH is 6.4. so far so good ,
CRS, Neocaridina Shrimp all breeding , just discover my golden crs have given birth a week ago , saw a tiny little golden crs at moss(size like a week old).

Congrats bro~ Soon there will be full of goldens in your tank rclxms.gif

Any lubang to get it?? i'm looking for cheap fire red also biggrin.gif but do some of them give you "Sakura Cherry" rather than "Fire Cherry"? "Sakura Cherry" is second grade better than red cherry shrimp and lower than fire cherry right?
*
All i can say is dun go for cheap priced "fire red" they will turn out to be sakura red only. Yes Sakura red are better quality then normal cherry, close to fire red. But still can not compare to those painted fire reds. Fire red it's hard to get males, shops onli have female for sell. Unless u get from breeder.

Paiseh paiseh, instagram effect. The soil is actually darker in color.

Ok.. looking fwd to finding out abt the sample size shrimp food.
*
how many shrimps are you keeping? sometimes, they can source food from ur moss ball too if the shrimps arent over crowding the tank. So they normally wont pay much attention to our pellets.

Thermos? Without air pump in?? O.o what about from thai enter to msia?

Just from my experience of smuggling shrimps... tongue.gif
U dun need air pump, as long as u place some moss in it. It allows the shrimps to hold on to it while "shaking...." which will kill them.
I ve tried to bring back from taiwan and singapore...so far never kena yet...haha

does it has the tendency to turned into cherry?
i saw few shrimplets in your picture has transparent part in their belly.
last time i visited another LFS, their fire red shrimplets is full red even few mm length.
*
Those shrimplets which has the transparent part are from the "Liu Li shrimps" As they grow bigger the transparent part will matures and it will look like a Liu Li.
As for Fire red shrimplets, yes they are red even on the day of birth~ unlike cherry shrimplets. So far non of my fire red shrimplets turned into cherries nor sakuras.
