    Default UPDATE: 4/17/11 the big move 20 gallon OEBT project

    I have randomly picked out 15 OEBT from my main tank and am going to see how fast they reproduce as some people are able to breed them fast and some slow.

    Tank size: 20 gallon
    Substrate depth: 2 inches
    substrate type: Tahita moon sand mix eco complete
    fitration: just a sponge filter
    decor: almond leaf as leaf litter, moss ball, manzanita twig with a bit of mini pellia (since it grows well in cooler temperatures)

    Tank has only been cycled for a 2 days with straight tap water and dechlorinator




    close up!


    posing shot!

    I find my OEBT breed better then any of my other shrimp, including cherry. Very resilient to changing water parameters as well.

    agreed, but thats once they settle. However, I have a few friends which aren't even breeding for them which is why I thought I would start a journal to see the rate of growth and breeding.

    I see at least 3 with huge massive saddles.
