It looks like I'll be getting some Tiger shrimp, Blue Rili and Blue Velvet shrimps. If anyone interested I could pick some more up. I'm in the middle of negotiations on pricing, but it looks like $5 to $6 depending on how many I get on the tiger and the blue rili, might get the blue velvet for $4 or $5 ! Sorry that the prices are not concrete, however it is depending on how many I will get! So if you are interested let me know how many, and I'll see if I can get a good deal on them!

Also I'll be going to Shrimpfever so if you want something from there I can pick it up. The prices are as on the website, I'll be just transporting them!

I got some of the shrimp, but it is a questionable origin! The ones he sold as tigers have more black and dark brown on them than I ever seen on a tiger... The blue rilis are a mix of blue velvet and rilis which are interesting on their own! I can hopefully remember my genetics and bread them back to two different colors... also got some Tibee ( which are a cross of tiger and bee shrimp, very cool looking!!)shrimp and red Chrystal shrimp from shrimpfeaver.... I got a good mix of juvies and adults also there are several females holding....

 My red cherries  A big Female  This is one of the Tibees ( Tiger and Bee shrimp high bred)  My Black "Cherry" shrimp ( Can not interbreed with red cherry or you get a washed out brown shrimp!)  Chrystal Red "A" grade ( a future project to cross these with the Tibee....)  Blue velvet and Blue rili crosses and a Black Cherry ( which has been removed from this tank so they will not cross!)  More Black "Cherry"  And another one |

The shrimp really look good. Looking forward to seeing how they breed for you and any future crosses you make.  |

Thanks Glen!
I have a few of the crystal reds berried already but I heard that the first time moms drop their eggs more often than not, will see what will come about!

Hi gabor129,
Are you keeping the shrimp in a "shrimp only" tank? I've kept mostly marine shrimp and I believe one species of FW. Your photos have really piqued my interest in keeping some FW shrimp.

J I do have some shrimp only tanks, however I also keep some of the shrimp with Galaxy Rasboras, otto's, white cloud minnows, and bristelnose. I know that Glen is keeping cherries with endler's livebearer.... The Rasboras do eat some of the baby shrimp, but leave the adults alone.... I have a couple hundred of cherries in there with them so I still get baby's thought! |

gabor, cool photos please keep them coming. Thanks ! I will try, but it is not easy to get the pictures! They do not keep still... I usually get 10/12 pictures that are no good to 1 that is usable, so it is very time consuming! |
