my first shrimp. blue gene red rillis

[revolutionhope]

hello lozza im very interested to see what becomes of the black saddle and eggs! im yet to discover that since my journey with blue gene red rilis began in february this year. i found one that has interesting markings but also a black section where the saddle should be but the black area stretches all the way around the shrimp so it's definitely not a saddle! i also had one appear which has a very deep dark blue section on its tail and quite a bright light blue colour on the rest of it.

 

i will be very interested to see what your black eggs turn out to look like i think you should definitely seperate them if you can. so far ive only seen yellow and red eggs.

 

love n peace

 

will

Funny how your shrimps look like my blue pearls with black saddle...

should be interesting to see the outcome of them. mine look very similar to yours http://shrimpkeepersforum.com/forum/index.php/user/1275-revolutionhope/.  I just need to find the black ones again. they disappear over to the back of the tank.

yours have the navy blue through them too Ineke :) I need to buy a macro lens for my DSLR camera.  drives me crazy trying to get clear photos. the deep rich blue never shows up when I take photos of them.
