A New Year ... A New Beginning

Finally, it is 2012 and my Sulawesi cardinal shrimps looks to be still scavenging healthily in their tank. I actually got 2 wild caught Sulawesi cardinal shrimps from a local fish shop on the last day of 2011 to add some variety to the genes in my Sulawesi tank. I counted 9 shrimps alive this morning (one died last week) where I should have had 11 (hopefully, the other 2 is hiding ... ).
Anyway, we got a albino full red guppy trio as well to help usher the new year mood (in a separate tank of course) and guess what ... the female dropped a litter of almost 30 frys the same day but decided to jump out of the tank this morning :(. Oh well, it looks like we'll still be having a RED Chinese New Year this year assuming the frys will grow up well in the tank ... :).
