Hatchling (Zoea)
Feeds exclusively on microscopic biofilm and powdered flora. Requires dense foliage shelter against filter flow.
AquaExpo is a real-time biotope simulation where you breed pure-line Neocaridina and Caridina strains, manage live water chemistry (TDS, pH, gH), and visit global breeders on your own 2D isometric expo floor.
Shrimps face forward in their true travel direction, grazing and navigating realistically across the biotope.
Pellets sink to substrate, attract nearby colonies, shrink as shrimps graze, and vanish when finished or vacuumed.
Seamless optical glass aesthetics with mathematical shrinkage for larger tanks (15L to 100L) to evoke spatial biotope volume.
Microscopic hatchlings (~45%) are markedly smaller than juveniles (~72%) and champion adults (~100%).
Global chatter automatically purges after 10 minutes, keeping the expo clean, with overhead speech bubbles on avatars.
Smooth linear interpolation for real-time breeders, online presence sync, and persistent Google/guest profiles.
The 5 sequential biological phases taking a microscopic hatchling to a champion exhibition ancestor.
Feeds exclusively on microscopic biofilm and powdered flora. Requires dense foliage shelter against filter flow.
Undergoes first molt cycles. Low calcium balance risks failed shedding; first phenotypic color pigments emerge.
Sexual dimorphism solidifies, females develop an ovarian saddle. Selective pairing rooms yield pure progeny.
Peak carapace pigment density. Shrimps in this phase achieve the highest scores from expo judges.
Retired champions are commemorated in the Hall of Fame archive; their pure alleles are preserved across generations.
Select your permanent character when beginning your journey. Each breeder arrives with a distinct discipline and starting colony.
Specialized in Caridina soft-water biotope dynamics. Equipped with Active Soil substrate and high-precision RO water mineral balance.
A seasoned selective breeder focused on high-grade Neocaridina red varieties. Master of robust river sand environments and hardy genetics.
Passionate community aquascaper and expo trader. Brings custom spiderwood hardscape aesthetics and rapid colony trading acumen.
Encounter interactive mentors and vendors wandering the expo hall. Approach them to receive breeding wisdom, purchase rare imported lines, or enter the championship jury ring.
“40 yıldır tank kuruyorum evlat, ama hâlâ her yeni nesilde şaşırıyorum. Acele eden breeder, saf hattını kaybeder.”
“Yeni ithalat Black Rose ve Green Jade varyasyonları geldi! Sağlıklı kabuk, tok renk garantili.”
“Uluslararası yarışma standartlarına göre simetri ve kabuk opaklığı ilk bakacağım kriterler.”
“İlk sarı ateş karideslerimi dün aldım! Su değerlerini tutturmak için saatlerdir test kitine bakıyorum.”
“Güneydoğu Asya'nın el değmemiş nehir kollarında öyle vahşi morflar gördüm ki... Efsanevi Boa deseni doğanın bir hediyesi.”
Indiscriminate cross-breeding regresses colonies back into wild brown tones. Selective discipline unlocks legendary morphs.
Maintaining genotypic purity triggers recessive high-grade morphs (Taiwan Bee, Boa, Ghost Dragon). Each brood exhibits denser, porcelain-thick carapace coating.
Crossing red, yellow, and blue strains without isolated lines causes melanin dominance. Within a few generations, your colony reverts into transparent wild river shrimp.
| Tier | Sample Species | Pigment & Carapace Coverage | Incidence Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| COMMON | Red Cherry, Yellow Golden | Semi-translucent shell, base pigment spread | ~65.0% |
| UNCOMMON | Blue Dream, Orange Sunkist | Solid single tone, initial leg pigmentation | ~22.0% |
| RARE | Black Rose, Green Jade, Carbon Rili | Dense opacity, masked pattern and deep chlorophyll green | ~10.0% |
| EPIC | Crystal Red / Black (Grade SS/SSS) | Hinomaru & No-Entry motifs, thick porcelain-white base | ~2.6% |
| LEGENDARY | Taiwan Bee Boa, Blue Bolt Extreme, Ghost | Metallic crown armor, spider leg banding, flawless symmetry | ~0.4% |
AquaExpo is not a flat menu list. Navigate your avatar across an open isometric floor and personally inspect rival breeders' live display aquariums.
Lease a dedicated booth on the central plaza. Visitors can peer directly into your tank water, inspect your TDS balance, and examine your lineage pedigrees.
Walk straight from the southern arch into the Petshop Hub or the central Auction Totem to bid on champion breeding pairs directly from their breeders.
Walk simultaneously with online breeders, spot active 🟢 online status indicators, and talk via real-time speech bubbles as you tour the floor.
Leave a 1-like-per-user tribute on favorite aquariums, send direct PMs to booth owners, and enter championships evaluated in real-time by judges.
