I just witness another exciting event.

:D For the second time since I've purchased my peppermint shrimps I've witness them giving birth to thousands of little babies. What a cool sight.

Have they grown up or did they become fish food?

[FragOutpost]

Sounds like a feast for your fish. :fish:
I remember reading an article a while back on breeding peppermint shrimp for profit.

[D12monkey]

Yup... they had a blast. last time not survived.

[D12monkey]

Just saw a bunch that made it out of the display tank and into the refugium.

[FragOutpost]

That's good news.

How many peppermints do you have in your tank?

[Teeka01]

Maybe those ones get to grow up.

[D12monkey]

Great article. Though I do not have the time nor the resources to attempt that growout.

[D12monkey]

How many peppermints do you have in your tank?

2 in the reef, 1 in the nano

[Teeka01]

Have any babies left?

[D12monkey]

Prob not... But I had seen some in the fuges.

That's pretty cool. Hopefully some of them survive. Your shrimp multiply like my snails apparently do. I've got new egg batches every other day
