Guppysnail Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I have seen a lot of colors since I mix my colors. I have not seen purple though. I never had green but somehow a dark hunter green showed up…my phone didn’t catch the color either I empathize Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT_ Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 My first generation of blues made about half red babies, some browns and a few that grew up to be purplish. Looking really close it's blue and red spots. I don't think that coloration is stable or easy to breed though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StockEwe49 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Wow that is interesting. I have noticed some of my Cherry Shrimps have a orange or lighter red stripe down the top of their backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT_ Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I've noticed the stripe in my culls too especially when they get old. I think that's a standard attribute with the yellows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have noticed some of my Cherry Shrimps have a orange or lighter red stripe down the top of their backs. That's called a "racing stripe." It's somewhat common on red shrimp and very common on yellow ones, but I've never seen it on a blue one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StockEwe49 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 @JettsPapaok cool I did not know it was called that! It seems like a desirable trait to want to have in your colony. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
