**SHOW ME YOUR SHRIMPS**

If you knew how much they cost me you wouldn't be so interested ;) Besides, i don't sell them, i hoard them :lol: They are not as easy to keep as normal CRS, only about a 60-70% survival rate of young, plus not all babies born are of solid colour. From each batch of babies only 2 or 3 shrimp are worth keeping.
 
Some of my sakuras a few years back.

You know mlgt, after looking at the rcs grade link posted up by hotweldfire, I wouldv'e said your shrimp look more like the Fire Reds!

They were originally from taiwan so could be. I sold or gave alot away when I was moving home last year.
I now have the low grade offsprings which I just keep to clean moss.

Every so often I spot a really dark red baby and I place them into my scaped 60l.

Darren has the "sakura" grades shrimps from me now.
 
Out of interest whitey, where did you get the fires from originally? They look too good for lfs stock?!

I was very lucky, they never had them in until recently & since then they never had any more like this :)
It was a fantastic find.

My strange looking Sulawesi that I got from Chris Lukhaup at Vivarium:
