I saw that article which is excellent, this is one of the most informative shrimping websites. I did hear from someone on another group that raises neocaridina davidi var. orange and some of her shrimp look exactly the one in question. So I'm a lot less worried now. Just discovered I now have new babies in another tank, the mother is pictured in my profile picture, very pretty yellow. Thank you for your feedback, it's much appreciated.

I just checked this out and there is a translator at the bottom of the page so it can be read in English ?

Thank you @Cloudwarrior the original shrimp were excellent quality and only graded as culls due to the number of higher quality shrimp i had. Compared to what is available now most of my culls would be up there with the best. I was given my original colony by a very very generous man - the original starter of this forum Dean- and at that time probably the best breeder of shrimp in Australia.I no longer keep many Neos- only my Yellows and a few of the blues from the pond- but I did have a lot of different Neos back then -2013/2014- there are very few wild type in the pond even after 3 years of leaving them alone , most seem to have gone back to the original colours however it would take several generations of selective breeding to get them to breed reasonably true to colour again. I'm not sure I want to go there but will see how these few I caught out go. The TDS in the pond was quite a bit higher than the tank they are in and I have noticed some loss of intensity to the lower TDS so will let it get back up to around 200 -it's at 170 at the moment but the pond is over 300 almost 400.

I'm in SA. We have hot summers and cold winters. I hope my Taitibees continue to cope with the cold but so far they seem OK and it's been down to 1 c. 2 weeks ago.
