My Planted Aquarium Tank!

I had recently did a upgrade to my fish tank by adding more plants and supplying the tank with Carbon Dioxide (CO2) via a CO2 tank bought from Clementi fish shop (LFS).

The small internal tank is actually a breeding tank for my newly acquired pregnant freshwater shrimp and it will give birth hopefully soon! It’s exciting to see shrimp giving birth and this is a much bigger shrimp! (Almost like a prawn!)

You can see that green unfertilized eggs under it’s belly now. They look greenish now :)

I have another aquarium that holds little “Soon Hock” and baby freshwater lobster, they are a fun to watch when I feed them with sea-monkey (Brine Shrimps) or feeder fishes.

That’s all for today!! :)

My Cherry Red Shrimp is giving birth!!

The video is fresh from the oven and hope youtube can show it clearly. I caught my shrimp giving birth in the breeding tank yesterday night (early morning) and captured the kodak moment with my PsP camera armed together with a magnifying glass.

I am so proud of my cherry red shrimps!! They are fast breeders!! I have a total of 6 pregnant shrimps in the breeding tank and all are giving me shrimp babies!!

Hopefully all of them can survive long enough to grow up…they had a rough start when I found 4 shrimp babies trapped in my air bubble filter!! I rushed to clementi fish shop and bought the breeder tank and rushed back to rescue these baby shrimps from my bubble filter medium and put them securely in the breeding tank!!

Now, I am a happy owner of 40+++ baby cherry red shrimps!! yay!!
