The Care of Harlequin Shrimp

charlesr1958 · 08-27-2007, 04:41 AM

While still in its unedited version, and still attempting to breed this species, I thought I would go ahead and put out what I have been putting together for some time now in the hopes it will inspire others to give it a try. One of the females just spawned this morning and hopefully this time, I can take the larvae a bit farther towards settlement.

If I had a wife she would think the same, reason for not having one

I'm still not ready yet to commit suicide

Dentoid · 08-27-2007, 11:57 PM

Watch how you use the word "commit" Boomer!

charlesr1958 · 08-28-2007, 06:00 AM

Well, I should give the girl due credit, she does put up with an awfull lot from me, most notably when I stand up next to her in the shallows and shove something that looks like a live booger at her while saying "Check this out! Is that weird or what!" Which is usualy followed by her doing a very good Jesus impersonation as she walks water back to shore...lol
