QUOTE(GTBlackIce @ Oct 13 2013, 03:41 PM) Well...am back... 3 casualties this week...1 fire red, oto & 1 kamikaze malayan.  Glad the others & shrimplets are still doing fine. Tank glass is still full of GDA...so no pics could be taken  Not sure if the dead red was a berried female or not...though I hope not. Managed to see 1 of the reds molting...finally...that was nice. The 2 crs are still doing good too. So hope to add in more in the near future. Who knows...maybe even OEBTs next time  R.I.P. sry for your lost. What is OEBTs?

First commandos are KIA  due to command error ie. Me Second batch... Ms. Rambo is doing fine so far. Gonna add the rest tomorrow. Having 2 tanks at work is attracting too much unnecessary attention.

Today i found some shrimplets in cherry tank are colourless....omg its malaya shrimplets! Fantastic.... those cherry shrimplets got a very light red...but malaya has kinda only stripe on their back...they are grouping together...not like cherry...lol Shrimplets in the other tank are getting bigger!!! The blue, yellow and fire red..(somehow this batch i got at pets88 was not producing fire red shrimplets instead like cherry) Maybe will move them into cherry and let my grade S fire red only in the tank and breed. I cant wait for my other 2 tanks ready  Still trapping planaria 24 7....lol This post has been edited by lily64my: Oct 15 2013, 10:03 PM

No matters how you select breed fire red, you will still get cherry like baby, just assign them into reject tank. This post has been edited by arrow: Oct 15 2013, 11:13 PM

Be careful with 'non planaria' if you have snails in your tank, I lost 3 nerite snails the last time I used it.... but pest snails survived the 'no planaria' though
