The color in the picture is the actual color. These are my oranges. My yellows are in another tank. I am not sure if they are pumpkin, sunkist, jolly rancher. I think that I want to call them GTO Judge Orange. LOL
There are some pretty creative names for freshwater shrimp but that's nothing compared to the names that people give coral. I used to be big into reef aquariums. :)

Thanks guys.
Yeah, for now they are all in the same tank and doing well. I have not lost a single shrimp yet.
The only ones that are breeding size are the oranges and the 2 SSS CBS. I have a 40 breeder in the garage that I am planning to set up once I get the motivation. Once it is set up I will transfer the OEBTs to prevent cross breeding. I have another 10 gallon setup now, but the Fluval Shrimp Stratum is not buffering PH after only a couple of months. My PH in that tank is 7.6 an that is with 50/50 RO. I need to change out he substrate in it soon so that I can transfer the Orange noes to it. I am just not sure what substrate I want to use for it. I would like to use something that will keep PH around 7.0. I was thinking of using Red Sea Flora. Anyone have experience with this substrate?

EK,
How long did you keep it in that tank? I was at Fish Ranch II yesterday and was talking with the owner. He was telling me that the Red Sea Flora in his planted display has been in it for 3 years and it still looks good.
