At other shrimp forum I found this http://ww31.tiki.ne.jp/~nishiwaki/cyshrimpindex.htm
What do you think about species?
Guess are: morph of snowball, morph of denticulata, morph of Bee, something completelly different but cool

Is a neocaridina of some sort. How they got it I am not sure. Interesting.

I think there is now at least one type of shrimp for each of the basic colors! Yellow, wow

Now we have red, blue and yellow!

Too bad we can't breed any color you want just like mixing colors of paint:

red+yellow=orange
blue+yellow=green
red+blue=purple

If only it was that easy.

All I can say is...wow. Wow.

Also, if you hit the "back" button at the bottom of that page, it brings you to a listing of other critters, among them a pink, almost an opaline-pink ramshorn snail. That one also gets a "wow."

Yea, I saw these rams being sold for $100. Nice, but they can keep them.

Thank You
For providing the link.
That just wants me to set up more tanks. Yhose are very interesting.
The color is amazing. I hope this was done by selective breeding.
And not by the Dip-In-Dye.

That was my thought as well; do they breed true, or is the color from an outside source?

Dip-In-Dye?

Like the well-known blue shrimp that produce transparent offspring.

If those yellows breed yellow shrimplets I would be totally gob smacked.

I so hope they aren't dyed.
