Hi all
Hop you are all well?!

Well after a few hard and devastating weeks my shrimp tank is all in order I got my first lot of beautiful reds and ninja’s this morning and as I was getting the ninja’s prepared to move to the tank I saw this tiny little thing moving. I thought if geezz what has this person giving me from her tank!!! As I looked closer I found it was a tinie tiny baby. Look at this gorgeous little one this is a full close up on him/her

So looks like one of my red girls are missing some of her legs, she just back kicks to get around. Will they grow back you think? I’ve never seen this before

 

[FishGuest5123]

They should grow back after molting.

Oh good thank you hun. I was a little worried for her

Growing nicely, I have not had such good luck with my ghost shrimp, had two babies but now only one female shrimp in the tank so I am thinking of giving up on shrimp for the time being. I currently have several platy fry and 2 adults in there for QT.

Nice looking shrimp. My baby cherry shrimp are usually small enough for one of my neon tetras to eat!

Glad to see everything is starting to return to it's former order. Love cherry shrimp!

I just house them with snails so no harm to them at all. That’s not cool, you can see in his OP how little he was all you see is eyes so I can see how your tetras are having a snack on them.

No, they disappeared before I add the platys
