Hi all. Recently, Andy and I have been talking about getting some Crystal Reds. I wanted to see who in the club wanted to go in on a group order. Andy was talking about getting some from Brian in Columbus. Well as it turns out, Eric is good friends with the guy! I know Eric wants to get some for the shop too, so he is in. Sam and Efren are also interested. Anybody else??
keep in mind that from what I've heard they are "B" or "C" grade Crystals....not as striking as the A or S grade that you see pictures on the site. I personally have no problem with it....
We just need to figure out where we're going to be able to keep the shrimp so they're easily accessible to everyone who pitched in on the buy. Tim and I are still thinking about where to do this at, he might be asking Eric if we can keep them at AOA but Eric would have to approve this.
That'd be awesome, Sam. I hear they readily breed in home aquariums and are very peaceful, even to dwarf shrimp. I'd love to have a mating couple in my tank.
I like your idea. I'll be game if my CRS breed to trade some to fellow PAPAS members for Cambarellus shufeldtii or anything else that may come along. :thumbsup:
I'd love to be able to breed my Atyopsis Moluccensis but like Sam said, it's nearly impossible. I hear they're harder than Amanos. I'm just happy my cherries breed right now, haha.
That's awesome to hear about your dwarf crays guys! I hope you have very successful breeding On a sort of a side note, my only 3 CRS that survived out of the 10 I bought seem to be doing pretty good. I noticed about 4 days ago I have 2 females and 1 male and both females are berried. Hopefully they have successful breeding and can repopulate.
Not that I've seen. They all seem healthy and active. I haven't seen any molts yet so maybe once that happens I'll see some berried chicks.
