Moonwasaloon Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 I will be stocking my 6 gallon edge soon, and curious which direction I should go with. I really wanted to go with Orange Neo Shrimps, but curious how true do they breed? Also from what I understand, you can keep tigers with Neos, but tigers are more aggressive when it comes to feeding. Do you guys recommend having the Neo Shrimp in the tank first, and let them colonize before adding tigers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pokeshrimp Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Tigers are fine with neos. I have them together in multiple tanks and they get along just fine. I always started with neos and added the tigers a bit later. Not sure about orange neos though, never owned or looked into them yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrimp Life Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 In my experience Orange neos breed true. I would do as Poke said and get your neos first. Tigers require more specific parameters then neos... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonwasaloon Posted March 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Are tangerine tigers more orange than orange neos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pokeshrimp Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Are tangerine tigers more orange than orange neos? My tangerine tiger tend to be different shades of orange. I think if you can find orange neos that are more orange than TT. I think they're called "pumpkin orange neos". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
