Default My latest hatching - Blue Pearls

Found several baby Blue Pearls in the tank last night. I knew I had three berried females. Started scanning the tank for more wee ones when I found the mom. She's just sitting there while the little ones pop out of the eggs underneath. This is the first time I've seen shrimp hatching and just happened to be able to grab the camera for it.

Here's a nice little shot of it. If you look closely, you can see the shrimpets still in the eggs. A couple of them are breaking free from the underside.

Look even closer, and you will see a couple of babies that just hatched. They are right under her tail.
