vinniemabuna Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 Hi, after waiting a Looooong time for any shrimplets my PRL -CRS finally had a few shrimplets ! They are TINY ! My question is I have a lot of moss in my tank I had about 5 berried shrimp mostly at once this is the first time they are berried do you think more than the 5 I see are in the tank ? I need to do a redo on the tank should I wait until they are older ? About how old are they when you can see their adult colors I see that now but small! thank you .

svetilda Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 Congratulations! I never had PRL crystals but what I see from my mischlings you can see them more after 2-3 weeks. I'm not sure when you can see how good their white/red coverage is. I'll wait at least a month when you can see the babies and catch them all and then redo the tank.

jimko Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 I'd wait. Shrimplet sensitive to changes. Redo when colony is really healthy. If they are happy don't mess around with their environment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DETAquarium Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 Congratulations!! From my experience I usually try to wait to make changes in a tank even as little as trimmings when shrimplets are just born. Simply because they are hard to see, and are extremely fragile at this point. Wait a few weeks until they are juveniles and try to time your change between berried shrimp and these berried shrimp having shrimplets. svetilda 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
