aquarium


This freshwater shrimp is a new member of my aquarium. Based on my observation, it is a nocturnal animal (being active at night). Can you see the eggs hanging around in the abdominal appendages? She is moving its tail and appendages in order to create water current that may bring more oxygen to the developing eggs. I am not quite sure whether she is ready to lay eggs or not.

Do you have further information on the ecology of this species of freshwater shrimp?
