Pinolino Posted June 30, 2018 Report Share Posted June 30, 2018 Hello everyone, finilly I write too. For almost a year I have been lucky enough to have beautiful Masapi Shrimp More and more times, I compared my specimens with pictures of the web, and I wondered why mine were not so dark. I started to make a selection, but even the darker ones after a few days came back transparent, except for the beautiful white stripes above and the dark ones below. Today I saw an amazing thing: I have a pregnant Masapi in a bathtub that is because I had to help in the ventilation of newborns and I noticed that every time the caridina noticed my presence, in the absence of hiding places it blocked and changed those very slowly, up to go from transparent to black. Now I ask myself, can any of you confirm my theory? Others have found this thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevinB Posted July 1, 2018 Report Share Posted July 1, 2018 I'm not familiar with that particular species of caridina, but I have found that when my Taiwan bees are stressed in any way that they will usually show darker colors for a few days. If you want them to stay darker, I would try a darker substrate in your tanks if you aren't already using one. Pinolino 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
