Talking Baby Peppermints!

Last night about an hour after lights out I picked up my flashlight and took a quick look before bed. I saw what looked to be hundreds of quarter inch long shiny things flitting all over the tank. Looking closer, they were obviously baby shrimps. Now, I see them carrying eggs all the time, and I knew they released the free swimming larvae, but I had no idea that the larvae were really tiny images of the adults. I always just figured that they looked like, well, larvae . This was cool. The cloud of little peps would follow the flashlight beam, and when I shined it on my GOB boy did it have a feast. I must have watched this for half an hour. Of course in the morning there were none to be found.

Just thought it was pretty neat.
