schleppey Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 Yesterday, Thursday september 14 I woke up to a molt with eggs on it. I have never had mother molt her eggs off or die berried until now. I luckily had an ibron egg tumbler for exactly this and set it up. There was one free flying egg, a pack of 2, and a pack of ~12 slightly stuck together from molt remnants. Within an hour I could not find the single egg and figured it got tangled in with the big bunch. As I was looking for the single I actually got to witness 2 shrimp hatch from the pack of 12 which was fascinating. Went to get food and came back to the 2 pack now also missing, leaving the 2 hatched shrimplets and the pack of 10ish. I figured I would give them at least a night to hatch and I was very excited to check in the morning. Sadly when I looked in there, it's only the 2 shrimplets all of the other eggs are gone. I literally just don't know and am temporarily chalking it up to me setting the incubator up wrong and them escaping somehow. The only problem with that is I am pretty sure I did not set it up wrong lol I followed every direction I could find. Let me know what you guys think as I am out of ideas at this point.

Shrimple minded Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 I'm going the optimistic route.......maybe they hatched, escaped, and you'll find them over the next few weeks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
