I have 14 larvae now including the 7 from yesterday, the stripped mother has 1 left to release then i just need to wait for the 2nd mother to start releasing and i think she has at least 15.

Way to go. I'm seeing berried females in my tank and larvae from time to time. Not sure if they're all surviving as I don't always see them.

They all tend to hide post larvae for the first few weeks at least.

Thanks! Once your tank is just right you dont really have to do much... they just breed like rabbits

99% of my photos are taken with my DSLR Sony NEX-5N with their Sony E 30mm f/3.5 Macro lens, Not the best equipment but it does an ok job (i didnt want to spend much money just for taking a few shrimp photos lol. The not so good photos are taken with the iPhone.

There is still someone releasing larvae in the breeder tank, i counted 45 larvae and saw a mother still holding onto some that will be released soon.
