Birth to Berry – Yellow Shrimp Edition

I observed some yellow shrimp, from birth to berry the same way I have observed Blue Pearl Shrimp and Tiger Shrimp.  And today I have all the results of the Yellow Shrimp observations

 

.Yellow Shrimp

 

The yellow shrimp were born on November, 20th 2007.  The first berried female was observed on January 3rd 2008, and the second generation hatched January 22 2008.

 

Stats:

Time to fully matured berried female:  44 Days

Gestation Period: 18 Days

Total time from birth to second generation: 62 Days

 

Aquarium setup

All the Yellow Shrimp were kept in a 10-gallon aquarium that has mosses and vals.  The substrate is Aquasoil Amazonia. 

Stats:

PH: 6.8

Temp: 76

Ammonia: 0ppm

Nitrite: 0ppm

Nitrate: less than 10ppm

The total life cycle of 62 days is very consistent with other Dwarf Shrimp that I have observed.  Both the Blue Pearl Shrimp and Tiger Shrimp share a very close life cycle.
