Skunk Cleaner shrimp Packing eggs!

Laura and Jim will be hosting the May meeting this Saturday the 12th and it will be the usual of food, drinks, raffle and fun.
 
Doors will be open at 6:00 pm for social talk and the meeting will start at 7:00.  Parking gets a little tight and the city says you can't park on 4th but there is a parking lot a block away.   Meeting is usually held in the backyard so feel free to bring your favorite lawn chair, weather permitting of course.

If you need address/directions, contact a club member.

Best if you park at Mini Mall (where the spaghetti establishment use to be)
 
You will get to see his new frag tank set up in the making.
 
Hope to see you there!

He guys i have a first time deal going on my tank I have a mated pair of Skunk Cleaner shrimp and the larger female??? Is  Packing eggs! in the tail section the little part that is used for them to swim is just full row after row of little brown eggs Has anyone ever had them hatch out??? I have been thinking of putting them in one of my Refugiums I doubt any would last long after the hatch any suggestions?

[angelscrx]

I had peppermints hatch but they did it when the lights were on and the fish cleaned up the babies.  I would move them soon before they hatch and then put them back afterwards.  You may get lucky and have some survive but then again I haven't heard of anyone with sny success with these?

Thanks Angel for the feed back. I might move them to the fuge and see how it works out  :?: But  Big Mama wont come over to me and feed out of my hans and the little male is always trying to clean her egg sack area and she will push him away and move from him as well so If i do I will just move her  :?
