Got some new shrimps

Recommended Posts

I received some shrimps from Germany... some shrimps I've been wanting for a long time. I tried to take some pictures but it was late and I was tired, not many pictures turn out good so bear with me.

 

First, the super red CRS.  The tank glass is covered with algae so it's hard to find a good angle.

Then, some red and black pintos, and some spotted head pinto mischlings.

Some mosura TBs... I already had some but didn't have the red ones (never even saw one before). Finally I have them now.... I find the colour not as dense as the black?

The Crystal White .... the tank glass is really dirty, sorry for the bad pic.

Those are amazing! I kinda agree with mcdonnellv that the one looks like a Royal Blue Tiger to me too.

A really pretty one too. Mine all turned black with age.

Maybe in Germany they are considered the same? I also hear some call them blueberry shrimp.

How would you say the german oebt with the ones locally? Looks like the other pic with no stripes is a royal blue tiger.

 

I already had 2 OEBT breeding tanks and one tank with just the babies to grow up, but I still went with these as I find the Germany ones are better. I don't know and can't say if they "breed true" to the colour quality but will try to find out ;-)

 

Yeah, I think I got lucky to have 2 or 3 of the Royal Blue in the mix.

I think so too ;-)

I will follow up on the ones I got and see if they change colour and report back. Hopefully they survive that long ;-)

 

 

Do you mind sharing with us from whom/which site you got them from? :)

It's Michael Nadal from Germany. Another member here used to import from him I believe, so the shrimp quality isn't new to North America.
