svetilda Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 I'm thinking of getting some Blue Dreams and wanted to keep them with RCS in a divided tank. So one half is for BD and the other - for RCS. But if I want to cull them in the future I don't have place for the culls of both of them. So, my question is if I'll keep them together are they going to interbreed to the wild shrimp? I have a new 5.5g that I can divide too but I really don't want to because I'm still not sure if I like my first divided tank enough to repeat the process. And if I'll start 2 new aquariums my DH will get very angry at me! Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loumeer Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 All neocardina species come from the same strain. So I believe that all neocardina will interbreed and become wild type neocardina. Soothing Shrimp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jadenlea Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 oh gee.... it sounds like you might have to start another tank. Darn it. hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DETAquarium Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 Yes they are both Neocaridina, so they can interbreed. If they do there is potential for them to throw wild coloration in the mix. I would keep one or the other in the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
