I'm going to be a prawn star daddy.

I don't know if the pic shows it or not. But in real life she is a deep red even a burgendy. And she is berried!!

[Squiggle]

That's awesome news dude, always love seeing berried girls, well done! :happydance:

[jayc]

Woohoo!

:happydance:

Happy dance time.

I have 3 CRS berried too time week after feeding them Lowkeys B18 protein.

[BlueBolts]

Awesome.....very impressive looking shrimp...do the juvies need brackish water ?

[daimen]

From what I know about the northwest river prawn from dave at aquagreen. He said that they will survive in fresh water

[newbreed]

Congrats! Looks like quite a few eggs there!! Keep us posted!

[2OFUS]

The baby's will be the size of a grain of sand

IF THAT

id suggest loading Afew more sponge filters in the tank and remove your canister or hob

[daimen]

I'm still waiting on my ss cover for my canister. This is in a 4ft semi native tank. There is a massive bunch of Java moss. Plus I don't have any cycled sponges

[2OFUS]

The baby's will get through the SS inlet cover

they are tiny

[daimen]

Oh well I'm not trying to breed them I will see how many survive and check my canister later on.

[smicko]

Sounds like a really nice colour, pity the camera doesn't pic it up.

The type I.get around here have a brackish water stage so to much effort for breeding, but if yours survive in fresh I would get some as they are a cool looking shrimp.

Cheers mick

[daimen]

These ones are from Nt if they are successful I could send you some

[daimen]

Hey gary when the babies are born do they hang around their mum for a while? Because of they do that's the opposite end to the filter maybe a few will make it.

That's a beauty. The macro's here are often a deep blue tiger colour. I have tried to "modify" them but their claws grow back. Grrr... From what I hear the only difference between a fresh water prawn and a salt water one is the salt.
