red cherry and red crystal

Post by TFF »

Hi everyone, I have a tank a nano tank (15l) that has been up and running and breeding red cherry shrimp for well over a year now. I want to introduce a few red crystal shrimp as I love the look of them. My questions are will they interbreed, will only the dominant species breed or will they both breed?

thanks in advance



edit.. it's OK, i found this helpful chart on another forum

The Compatibility Chart is a good start.
Another thing to take into consideration is the Water Parameters that your Red Cherry Shrimp ( RCS ) are in now and the water requirements for Crystal Red Shrimp ( CRS ).
If they are different, a slow acclimation may be needed.

We all make mistakes, once in awhile.
Just so we learn from them :D

I tried to Cut-n-Paste the Chart you were referring too.
But, it would not paste correctly.

Keep Us updated on the progress of your Tank.
