sp.Malaya?

Post by Serafin »

Hi.

I bought in my LFS 20 shrimps before 2 months. They came like Babaulti Blue, but the color is not real and after 2 week there is no single blue color on them.

And all babies have transparent color

I think that is Malaya species, what you think?

None of them are Malaya shrimp. They are all some form of Neocaridina sp.

yup all of them look like what i call "dirty" shrimp, it happens all the time when stockers buy loads of varieties and stick them all in the same tanks. normaly i would reccomend staying away from such shrimp but hey all shrimp are cool in thier own way!
