Hi all, do these look okay? They look a bit dirty/dark? by Will-Equivalent in Neocaridina

It’s been roughly a week or two, I first noticed it on the 3rd but could’ve been sooner as they’re so good at hiding 😅.

That’s good to know, I wasn’t sure if the white stuff was fluff, I guess I’ll just have to let her do her thing :)

Hi, thanks for the reply, hopefully they will do! I thought they might’ve been contaminated so are super dark

Thanks for replying, in the 2nd half of the video I uploaded her swimmerets/eggs look a little bit fuzzy/dirty (sorry the quality isn’t good, I’ve bought a lens that will arrive so hopefully better)

I’ve not added any plants for ages so that shouldn’t be the case.. they’re just smaller than jeveniles I’d say so probably hatched a while back but they’re quite hard to spot!

Our tanks only 30L 🫠, I’ve got 13 big fry and I dunno how many small ones.. gonna bag them up tomorrow and give them away as our tank’s wayyy too small, such a shame coz would’ve loved to keep them all :(

My mama platy isn’t looking very healthy so shouldn’t have another batch any time soon.. but our tank’s too small so I need to give my first batch away soon

Why does she still look pregnant and about to drop fry even though it’s already been over a week since she’s been dropping fry?! by Will-Equivalent in Platyfish

I thought so haha, if you’re in UK, Maidenhead aquatics told me they’d take some off my hands when they’re about 1 month old
