One of the shrimplets is blue 💙

I tried using my macro lens on my phone, but it kept focusing on the algae on the glass instead. The shrimplets are smaller than the grains of substrate, so they're tough to capture and to see. I didn't know where this blue guy came from as I've only bought ghost shrimp and red cherries. I think what must have happened is my aquarium stockists classify neocaridina davidi shrimp that are more translucent as "ghost shrimp" instead of palaemonetes because they are breeders and need to move the stock. Ghost shrimp are less expensive and are sometimes bought for feeder shrimp. I got a few to add to my cleanup crew, and they must have spawned, and one is showing more solid colouration. This may be an encouraging sign of the new feeding combinations I've tried: freeze-dried blood worms and tetra flakes. The tetras love blood worms and extra protein is good for all the tank occupants.

A baby

The first new shrimplet in many months (maybe close to a year). His mother is a red rili that came berried from the pet store. I had thought she would drop her eggs from the stress of being introduced to a new tank but here is a baby a few weeks later!

I have another berried shrimp, this yellow lady. She was one of the last four in the tank (her and three reds) before I brought home a few more from the store. Seeing her berried encouraged me to keep trying and to add a few more.

Cautiously optimistic that I've figured out whatever had been wrong in the tank 🤞

Sir, are you aware that you are the size. Of three copepods.

There is a LOT of algae in the shrimp tank, but it is hard to remove as there are also babies all over the place. Plus side, the shrimp love the algae.

On a side note I am hating this new photo upload thing.... maybe it is good for phones, but I am on a computer and losing the battle. :(
