Shrimpy Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Can anyone help me out with this? I have a pregnant shrimp in my breeding box and have another cherry shrimp that has a sattle! Could that be why my crystal red shrimp are swimming everywhere and latching on to other shrimps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyeGuy411 Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 A female somewhere is about to molt and the males are picking up on the pheremones in the water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyeGuy411 Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 I use the shrimp going crazy like that as a way to sex young shrimp that im not sure about. I take note of the ones that freak out and with almost 100% certainty they are males. Shrimpy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
