Pictures Started keeping shrimp

[Love My Zons]

This time success with these cute guys.

I have many shrimplets coloring up. I have mixed colors, orange rili, blue velvet, black carbon and a yellow.

Babies are growing, some are reverted to wild color, expected mixing them.

Ohh they are very cute lol.

I remember seeing some shrimp for tanks a fair few years back now that were actually worth a lot of money, like a stupid amount of money and I was amazed that people were paying 1000's for them.

Well they seem to be a hit in the trade. They are easy to keep from what I see. They reproduce easily. I can't say how well they do just added as scavengers. They do need their own specific good, along with good water parameters.

They were not around early in the trade when I was younger.

I do enjoy them, and it's fun finding those tiny shrinplets and seeing the grow and color up!

That's so cool! I am trying to get into fishkeeping and I currently only have 2 cory catfish, but I am hoping to have a lovely community aquarium soon, and I'm really wanting to get some cherry shrimp or amano shrimp when I get the chance. Super cool babies!

They are really fun to watch. They will be fine with any small community fish. Rasboras, Tetras to small danios. I have 5 Neon Tetras in with mine. I just have always loved Neons!

The issue with keeping several colors is when they breed, some can resort back to wild colors with the normal brown color.

Lots of reds though and I am sure they are mixed with the yellow one.
