Invasion of the the Blue Dream

[TwoTankAmin]

Ugh I wrote out a big intro and somehow deleted it. I am not willing to revriew it so I will just post the pictures. I will provide this info. I started with 10 Neocaridina davidi variety Blue Dream. I added 6 a couple of months later and they went into a well planted 15 gal. Fast forward a couple of years and I had 29 gal. Q tanks which wound up as a permanent tank. A couple of months ago I added about 15 of the blue srhimp to the 29 whi held amanos, corys, a fm albino bn and two pairs of CPDs (Danio margaritatus).

Since i got the blues they have reproduces like rabiits so I decided to move a number of theninto the 29. So far I have sold a few hunred blue shrimp at auctions. Today I shot these pics of the 29gal.

Very nice! I've only kept red cherry shrimp for long in MA. Here in similar soft water they don't reproduce even with crushed coral. Something is missing but I'm done trying. I wish I could keep the blues, so pretty!
