Babies!!!!

[siond]

Hey everyone, long time no visit...been busy with work and family! But great news!! My tank has been well established for over a year now and i have had much luck with it. And just now a new luck sprouted, my shrimp had babies, or should i say 100's of them! I was just wondering what is a good way to try and keep them alive? I turned off two of my power heads, and now im just watching them. And they are peppermint shrimp.

Hey, how are you?

Can you post a pic?
Where are you seeing these babies - all over the tank or by/under some rocks?

Yea i see some floating around not moving. I dont think they survived either. But it was still pretty ko0l. Its always a beautiful thing to see your tank reproduce and act natural.
