Hello everyone, A few months ago I was considering to add some shrimps to my fishtank and some research on the internet got me looking for caridina japonica aka amano shrimp. I added 3 of them to my 15gal/54l tank and I quickly noticed how useful and fun they are in my tank. Some time later added another 4 of them, and later I added 3 more because I find them a great addition to my tank. All the shrimp come from the same petstore. After I added 7 more shrimp to my tank I noticed the first 3 shrimp I introduced in my tank are different in color, size and behaviour. One of them is black/dark brown, one brown and one dark red, they are smaller and more timid when compared to the other 7. They are all the same (grey/transparent) color and not shy at all, especially when there is food to claim. I would love to know if they really are all the same breed.
