Photos of my shrimps are very hard to take because they scoot
away fast, and either my digicam is not good enough to take really
really macro shots or I'm too goondusamy to figure out how to
utilise it well. 
Anyways, after attempting dozens of times since I got my tank,
here are a few precious shots of my Crystal Reds.


This 'grass patch' is becoming threadbare because it's actually
very very fine 'grass' (Riccia Fluitans) that's weaved with
what looks like fishing rod strings onto a pane of glass and the
residents have been sitting on it, sucking on it, eating it,
crawling across it, etc etc and dislodging it bit-by-bit so it has
become quite 'botak'.
I was told that the striking colours are
usually found in females and dull-coloured ones are usually males.
So maybe, we're seeing a male and female here!

"The world looks different upside-down... but I can still eat in
this position!" 
I loved the common shrimps I had in my tank back in Singapore
donkey years ago. Their legs were larger and more visible so
you can see them using their little forelimbs to stuff food into
their mouth at great speed!
These are too 'refined' so you can't really
see them doing that because they eat teeny weeny bits at a
time. You see them around food pellets and on the plants and
moss, apparently eating, but you don't get the satisfaction of
really seeing them feeding in a frenzy. Haiz...
