ForeverShrimp Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Hey! I'm new here. I used to have no interest in shrimp or fish when I was younger but now I feel asthough I'm ready and this seems like a great hobby!! Can anyone tell me everything I need to know? I know that's a lot to ask of but I really need the information. If not could someone link something that tells me this instead? Thank you very much!

Soothing Shrimp Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Welcome! You won't like the answer so much, but start to read posts here and you'll have a pretty good idea what's going on. Have an idea what kind of shrimp you are interested in yet, or are you still exploring your options? It's a big world out here. heh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverShrimp Posted October 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 I'm interested in amano shrimp and Red cherry shrimp too. But I don't really know a lot of other kinds apart from ghost shrimp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrimpybuisness Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Hi so basically if you know something about cherry shrimp then your pretty much can have any kind of Neocaridina (this is the name of the species of these shrimp) you can Google it and see all the different colors! So basically "Neos" as many people on here call them for short are pretty easy over all the only difference between them are colors and pricing! I myself have "Red Rilis for sale!" (Rilis mean a color of shrimp with clear center) Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wygglz Posted October 23, 2015 Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 Welcome FS. Great idea to start with Neos as they will be your best starter shrimp. One word of caution as your research all the wonderful colors of these little gems; you won't want to mix colors in one tank or as they beed they will most likely resort to wild type, so pick your favorite.
