Yes, it usually means they are different species. They might be very closely related, but are considered different species. Correct. Colour cannot be used to consistently identify shrimp species. Take the humble RCS Red Cherry shrimp for example. You can get super bright red RCS, to dull splotchy red RCS and even no colour transparent (aka wild type). RCS vary in colour, but they are still all RCS. There might be species specific spots or stripes that can be used to distinguish different species however. Physical shape of the body can also be used as an ID. Would love to see your pics. But be mindful, that the free SKFA account has a limit of the size of photos that can be uploaded. The paid accounts don't have that issue.
