Shrimp ID help

Recommended Posts

Hello guys!

 

I need some help with Tiger shrimp genetics. My Tiger shrimp got for the first time shrimplets, she was in a Taiwan Bee aquarium (red ruby, red wines, pandas, shadow bees, kk and a zebra black pinto) but there was also a male Tiger Shrimp so I have no idea who got her berried. The shrimplets are now almost 3 months old and some have a more redish color, others a blueish hue and others almost no hue at all, is this normal if the male was the regular tiger? 

 

Here are the shrimplets:

I had no Blue tiger shrimps at that time, is the blue color a recessive gene or could these be tibee?

Given there was only one male tiger and many more TB types, odds are that these shrimp would be tibees. Would explain the mix of colours in the offspring too.

Certainly looks like some tiger genes in those patterns.

But odd colours for just regular tiger. So I'm with Fishmosy too, a tibee.

Thanks for the replies guys! :)

Do you guys know if the blue color on tigers is recessive a bit like the red vs black on crystal red shrimps?

What colour is the parents? I could work it out if I know the parents colours.

These were my only tigers at that time, they look regular tigers.
