bric123 Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 Hi everyone. I am new to shrimp-keeping and this bamboo shrimp has been in its own 20 gallon tank with 2 other bamboo shrimp and a vampire shrimp. I noticed he has a green-white patch on his back behind his head. and fear that he is sick. I have attached a pic. What could it be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamiface Posted December 4, 2019 Report Share Posted December 4, 2019 It's a girl! That's called a saddle. It's her ovaries, basically. When they're fertilized she'll move them down to her swimmerets and become "berried". Congrats on your first female! OhKay13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
