Thanks, Zapins.

Info sent to both Hawaiian and Musket.

Not too bad consider what others are charging for them at the moment. If interested, let me know and I'll send info via PM.

Good luck man. I've had my Bee shrimp holding eggs for a few months now, but no babies. My water is soft too so I'm now sure what's up.

My high grade crystals are holding eggs as well. I have had good success with C grade crystals, so I don't see why I wouldn't be able to breed these. I started with 8 C grade crystals and now have over 100 probably closer to 200.

For some unknown reason, in my case Higher grade CRS hold less eggs than lower grade ones(C). Also, it seems they breed at a lower pace.

my high grade looks like it is holding about a dozen eggs. And it is not a big one. It might have something to do with feeding. I am feeding them a special food from Japan.
