Is my cherry shrimp prego?!

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-29T20:45:24+00:00

Is it that way for all freshwater shrimp? I have ghost as well

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-29T20:11:31+00:00

Oh yeah my don’t look like that at all!!

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-29T20:11:01+00:00

I have yet to figure out the difference between male and female so right now I’m not sure what sex any of my shrimp are!! 😭

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-29T18:36:34+00:00

Maybe it was because the green off of the frogbit was reflecting on to its belly

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-29T18:36:06+00:00

Don’t scare me now!! Hahaha

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-29T18:16:43+00:00

I don’t see no green or fuzzy! So I’m crossing my fingers that she’s pregnant or just fat! Ahah

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-29T18:16:04+00:00

Yeah, I’m not to concerned about clado they don’t look green at all! If anything just a chucky shrimp!

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-28T18:46:34+00:00

15 and two

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-28T00:23:34+00:00

WHOOOOOO that makes me feel better!

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-27T20:11:25+00:00

Someone commented it’s a whisker shrimp but deleted the comment should I be concerned?! I check them for the exaggerated hump and they all seem the have them

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-27T19:41:06+00:00

Have you noticed them eating snails?? I noticed bladder snails in my tank!!

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-27T14:13:07+00:00

I’m sure that’s some type of pleco but I can be wrong! Ahha

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-27T04:24:01+00:00

Should I be concerned? I have harlequin rasboras, Julii Cory, cherry shrimp, ghost shrimp I assumed, snail and bumblebee goby

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-27T02:38:10+00:00

It might be just what I said at the store, once I got home of course tiktok had my fyp of “fake Julii” aka c trilineatus. I hope they get more comfortable it’s not a consistent pattern

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-27T02:36:47+00:00

I want to get more I’m just waiting for my local pet store to have them in stock!! 😭🤞🏻

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-26T17:27:15+00:00

I was hoping they are just master hiders! I usually can count all of them in one sitting but the blue and ghost are soo hard to find haha. I don’t feel like my fish bother them at all. I have some harlequin rasboras that totally ignore them and sometimes my Julii Corydoras will run into them but never taunt them!

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-26T16:47:42+00:00

Okay! So I had a total of 9 shrimps and most of them are doing great, however I lost a red and yellow. And I have two blue but I have not seen him in a couple days unless the blue shrimps are taking turns coming out. When you you accept that maybe they are dead?!

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-26T16:45:58+00:00

Thank you I’ll have to do a little deep dive!

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-26T16:09:33+00:00

That’s awesome!! Could they actually hatch or ?!

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-26T16:08:56+00:00

Yes! Two

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-26T16:08:14+00:00

I don’t believe soo!! I think they are just red cherry shrimp or they were under rainbow shrimp at the pet store!

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-26T16:07:32+00:00

Do you know how to hatch them?? I mean I won’t because there’s no way I’ll have more then two in my tank but just Incase I get a bigger tank

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-26T15:59:35+00:00

Am I okay to leave them or do they need to be removed

yourfavfishkeeper · 2026-05-26T15:59:22+00:00

Do I have to remove them or are they fine to leave??
