ehufaka Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I was wondering if anyone could tell me if this looks like a orange rili or a lightly colored red rili. My tank only has red cherry and red rili so it came from those and not an orange rili. It looks kind of orange in shade but pink in direct light. Same shrimp in direct light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DETAquarium Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I would have to assume that if you only have these two types of shrimp in your aquarium, then this is a mutation from one of the two. As it looks more similar to a male (Hard to tell) in the third picture in my opinion, you could always selectively breed his trait to a controlled set of females in hopes to breed your own line.

ehufaka Posted August 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Yeah I'm assuming it's from a rili and a cherry with a thick stripe on its back since the color seems to be close to the color of the stripe on some of my cherries. I'll probably breed him with my lightest rili and my cherry with the widest stripe since none of my rilis have the stripe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
