I have seen an increase in shrimp numbers, in both the orange and yellow tanks, after adding a few more breeders the blues are there, just better hiders, not being as brightly colored... there are about a dozen Santa Maria Endler fry in the blue shrimp tank, with the largest approaching adult male size, still no colors yet, so not sure if the 1st was a female or male yet???
the yellow shrimp tank has the mountain minnows, which are still not mature yet, but yellow numbers are up... these pictures are rough, both because of the sideways tanks, and this one is only a few inches off the floor, and because of location, always gets phone reflection, but this is the orange shrimp tank, with the double sword japan gold and blue guppies... all are still surviving, I don't see any fry yet, but they have only been here a week or so, a couple orange shrimp also visible in the blurry pictures...

I'm really liking the mountain minnows, though they are not live bearers... I may move them to a more visible tank, and try some more specialized live bearers, like tiger teddies or??? if the endlers and guppies continue to work out
