    I really want some Bamboo Shrimp but finding them is a mission and a half. Plus finding a petshop willing to ship them to me is another thing entirely...

    When I was given shrimp a year or so ago there were a few that looked like that in amongst normal glass shrimp. They all died :(. I'm sure there are guys on the forum with the same but don't want to mention names without permission...:scratch: ;)

    Those are both cherry shrimp. They're going back to their wild coloration.

    I use to keep and breed these, posted up macro shots on www.shrimpnow.com a while back and were told that they fall under Caridina CF. babaulti complex.

    Ja those are what you call pavement specials....crossed and crossed again. On the 2nd pic you can see the yellow line on her back, it happens when you cross 2 colors or yellow with glass shrip. SOme actually turn black.

    I actually got some really nice ones through selective breeding, but that was quite a while ago. Don't have 'em no more.
