Feelin Sexy?

[Flipturn88]

I love these guys so much that I set up a 5 gallon tank just for them!

Great shots Kayla. I love those little shrimp too

that second shot is fantastic! I have a few of these in my 12g and man, they are hard to get a good picture of. I really like them though, they have a lot of character!

awesome shots kayla...

Thanks everyone! Please feel free to post any pics you may have of these shrimp.

My ultimate goal is to breed them (one already appears to be pregnant, but whether the eggs have been fertilized is another issue), however, I have been unable to find much information regarding breeding this species anywhere.

Here's a pic of the tank:

Those shrimp are too sexy for your cat; what you think about that?

Looking good Kayla!

((are you going to SaltwaterU?))

 

[Flipturn88]

LOL tibbs, I can almost hear them singing that when they wiggle their bums.

Awesome, that's the perfect link - thanks so much! I emailed the author awhile back, but so far there has been no response. The thread has the exact info I need, though.

I use a Canon Powershot A95. Someday I hope to get SLR so I can take better macros, but I don't mind making due with what's available (and affordable!) at the moment.

Thanks again everyone. Have a good one!

this has been the only simi decent one i've been able to get. the front of my nanocube is curved, so shooting from the side makes it a bit difficult.

 

[delta410]

always wanted to get one of those, but don't like the idea of it getting sucked up and never seeing it again.

 

[Flipturn88]

aural, that's an awesome shot! Look how you can see one of its legs indenting the frogspawn tentacle--too cool!

 

[louist]

Very nice Kayla! I love sexy shrimps too, but have been unable to source any in Syd lately!

I got 3 other shrimps and they all disappeared in my 10g! bah.....

 

[Flipturn88]

Louis, I haven't seen many sexies on recent order lists here, either. Maybe it's just not the right season for them(?)

Bugger about your other shrimp! If you're willing to put an anemone in your 10 gallon, the sexies would stay put on there.
