if all goes successful, i dibbs the first babies that go up for sale once they come out ofthe salty soloution.

yes thats right, i beat all you guys to it! it would be nice to have these guys at a cheaper price than 2-2.50 the lfs charges

Well now you said that she is going to charge £4.50 a shrimp from the first batch and justify because they are loved from the very start, hand reared and you even get a birth certificate and picture of your shrimps egg

UPDATE :
All go now
they started hatching about 6pm yesterday evening , all done by 11pm females removed at midnight
slowly started adding salt from 1am - gradually increased the salinity to 34 ppt
But i dropped my salinity meter so got to get a new one from ebay - but all doing well floating around ----- they look so much like mens tadpoles (if you catch my drift )
when i put the light over the top of them they are all bobbing around , really cute

Have fed them some spirulina dust , added some java moss from shrimp tank and also gave them a squirt of infusuria

So we'll see how i go - trying to take pics but not working too well - will keep trying
