The Opae ula shrimp Forum and online store

Just starting a topic. Share website or videos or info. Hope we can have one just for Opae Ula and maybe a video or an eye witness in the future.

This site talks about shrimp in general about reproducing. http://www.planetinverts.com/shrimp_reproduction.html

Videos of other shrimp.

My analogy of molting is "taking off clothes" and making herself attractive. The males see this and starts their "ritual" or seems like "harassing" the female right away or within minutes.
I assume the female allows one male to mate in the dark "cave" during the next few hours or days.

LOL great topic!

Now we need Odin to record it for Opae Ula.

Another video I found. Stenopus mating after a molt.

Thats interesting, she still makes him work for it at the start though lol.

adding this video to this topic
