Re: My Yellow Shrimp

Nice beasts, would you be interested in trading some of them for Cherry Red Shrimp?

Re: My Yellow Shrimp

Looking good!

Where did you get them? I was planning on starting a shrimp rack and these were gonna be one of the stockings.

Re: My Yellow Shrimp

Cool!

What are they munching on?

Re: My Yellow Shrimp

Bought them online.

Sorry already have 200+ RCS.

Theyre the second shrimp on my shrimp rack. The third is going to be green shrimp, then fourth maybe blue shrimp.

Broken up algae wafers.



I wont be selling any for a while, although there are several berried females already.

Re: My Yellow Shrimp

Nice!

Do some of yours have a little white spot on the sides where the head meet the body?
I seem to have a few that have white (or maybe yellow) splotches on their sides and i'm not sure if that's normal for yellows...

Re: My Yellow Shrimp

If we mix them with red ones will we get orange?  :wink:
Very pretty. I hope they are fruitful and multiply and maybe someday you'll have enough to pass some along.
I love my little red critters !

Re: My Yellow Shrimp

wow.....sweet......i want a few....dang chris....just a few....come on share....

Re: My Yellow Shrimp

:P Theyre all mine.

Mixing them with RCS apparently produces the wild brown colour. But you can buy orange shrimp online. Orange is one of the colours that isnt very good. The shrimp are hint of orange, rather than orange.

Nacra - I'll check on the white spots when i get back to the house.

Re: My Yellow Shrimp

There is no way to get the wild coloration other then getting wilds themselves....Red Cherry shrimp will not revert back to that state and mixing Neocardina is just gonna give you hybrids.

Re: My Yellow Shrimp

stingy.......okay.....we'll set up a shrimp napping expedition then.....

Re: My Yellow Shrimp

Several Forums i looked at said mixing yellow with red will give you grey/brown shrimps that 'resemble' wild caughts. Ive never tried it so i cant say thats what will happen. I think i might just to see what they make. A red male with a yellow female, and a female red with a male yellow. See if theres any differences.

Loretta, I'll hook you up when i get some babies.
