So this morning I woke up and saw about 10-20 1/4" to 1/2" long baby shrimp. The only shrimp I have in my tank are 3 cleaner shrimp all 3 are always carrying eggs. 1 blood shrimp, 1 pistol shrimp. Pretty sure they are baby cleaners by the way they move but could be wrong all shrimp are that are full grown are about 3 years old now. They are all hanging out in a couple of holes in my live rock so the fish cant get to them and they run when I shine the light on them. I feed frozen food cubes all types blended together every other day. Also feed pellets daily 2 times a day, as well as algae for foxfaces. Then once a month I feed reef chili from BRS about 7 scoops. This might be what fed the shrimp to get them to the size they are. On top of that I feed a premixed coral food once a weeks about 2 cap fulls for my 105 reef tank.

They are still to fast to snap a picture of and when I look at them I think they are cleaners, blood, or maybe a hitchhiking peppermint shrimp (which is fine I do have some aptiasa growing)
