I'm sure all will be fine! just keep a watchful eye on your parameters (you sound like you already know all this) :laugh:

Today I've found some molt in the tank. And four females at least are saddled. Things goes well, I suppose.

Where did you keep the Opae Ula prior to this new 1 week tank or did you just purchased them a week ago?

A week with babies. Ten days tank setup, just three days before arrival. It was a friends surprise gift. I had no time for a good cycling. I know: isn't the best way!

Oh ok, they were berried when you got them so that make sense. I was thinking that was super fast to get berried! Your friend keeps Opae Ula? If it was an easy transfer from one tank to another without delivery then i think it will be high % they will become larvae (not have dropped eggs) since it was little stress.

Thanks, good info!!

Shrimps came from Germany. In fact it's a crowfunding project of Crustaforo, spanish aquatic invertebrate forum. Opaeula are absolutely unknown in my country. We try to show everyone this beautiful shrimp. And my task in the project: try to breed opaeula and write "How it works".

Oh, so there was mail delivery. How many days from Germany to Spain? They are molting and look great. Good luck.
