Yellow shrimp... other name???

Well I finally have some yellow shrimp, :-D the cousin of the cherries, snowballs and blue pearls.
Now you may have notices the other have catchy names... why not the yellow one? :?
Should we be calling them lemon or banana shrimp? Or other? :-D

Re: Crystal reds, bee and tiger shrimp "problem"

They were in the same water, solft, as the crystals and they all died... two sets. I'm now tring to see if adding a bit of calcium in the water will help.
I will be getting a new group in a few weeks.

Re: Crystal reds, bee and tiger shrimp "problem"

I won't be able to compare properly now as I added a bit of crushed coral to each tank to see if would work.
The greens are breeding with it noe and no change with the bees and bumblem bees,

Re: Crystal reds, bee and tiger shrimp "problem"

I vary the amount of food that I give them depending on how many shrimp are there.
I had the same problem with green shrimp as well, I'm doen to three addults but have 5 babies now.
I have added a bit of crushed coral so we will se if that makes a difference in the long term.

Re: is it possible to have a perfectly balanced system?

Oh ya, just as mutch as the pond snails...
I'm not sure, but there seem to be less of them when I put an assasin snail in the same tank, so they seem to eat them as well.

Blue shrimp ID

My friend go these shrimp from Seattle and I have no clue as to what they are.
They have not changed colour. I know that they are not Blue pearl Shrimp or Blue cherry shrimp.

Thanks
