Visited Folly Cove for the first time in a few months and found a nice variety of different nudi species. We saw a couple Ancula gibbosa, a few Ananthodoris pilosa, and even an Onchidoris muricata. My favorite find of the dive was a large mysis shrimp that I followed for a bit and managed to photograph in the water column. Nice dive!

The amano #shrimp family has grown by three individuals: a lovely chestnut-colored one, a tiny little yellow one and a milky white individual. Now there are a total of 5 - I think I will leave it at that, since the #aquarium isn’t that big.
If I had the time and resources I’d love to see what their F1 progeny would look like. But not in this economy
Apparently, the Japanese word for #shrimp (ebi) translates as “old man of the sea.” How perfect!
I’ve posted a shrimp for #ShrimpSunday every Sunday for a year!

New shromp alert! I initially thought it was female due to its patterning but then eggs appeared on the big female one day after the new one was added to the tank, so I guess it wasn’t…
It’s like half the size of lady and more bluish, but I wonder if this coloration will change once it adjusts to its new diet and habitat. I will be adding three more amano #shrimp and then the group will be complete! #aquarium

Footage of the #shrimp that came with the #aquarium gorging itself on some feed (possibly the first proper meal it got in a long time - it really went ham on those pellets)
I didn’t have much interest in shrimp before but they’re growing on me.
Based on my research this is an amano shrimp aka Yamato shrimp aka #Caridina multidentata, and probably a lady. The next step is to get her some housemates as they shouldn’t be kept alone.
