In this video I'm going to show you a cool method of keeping two different neocaridina shrimp in one tank without mixing them. I show you how I separate small colony of yellow cherry shrimp from blue dream shrimp by using small breeding box. https://youtu.be/-DrVirbmZT0

I have only been keeping Neocaridinas for about two months now, I have 10 blue dream neos in one tank, and 12 orange neos in a separate tank. The tank with the 10 blue dream neos has been slightly problematic though because it's a smaller tank and waste builds up a little faster. That being said, can anybody ID this swimmer in my shrimp tank? There is only 1 that I can see, it appears to have an exoskeleton almost like a shrimp, and it swims at the surface of the water by whipping its tail. I don't think it's a baby shrimp fry because I'm just now seeing my first female berried up and there haven't been any births before, but I suppose it is possible a fry snuck in with my order. Any help would be appreciated ?

Hi I wonder if someone could help with a bit of confusion I have regarding Blue verities of Neocaridina and the gene pool. This is what I have so far and not sure if it correct. 1) Black/Chocolate Cherries will produce Blue Diamond. 2) Blue Diamonds will produce higher grade Blue Cherries 3) Rili will produce Blue Dreams from there I'm not sure where Blue velvets fit in. What type of Rili will give you Blue Dreams cheers
