Default My Mixed Shrimp tank

Have added in blue/green, bloody mary, painted red, fancy tiger, galaxy wild, golden back, princess bee and tangerine eye blue shrimps besides CRS shrimps into the tank.

Most of them went into hiding inside the pants:

Not so sure about the crossing. But when I bought some of the shrimps, the females already berried. Hope can successfully spawn.

When crossed, they'll mostly look dull and brownish. Mixing shrimps of the same family together is usually not recommended, unless you are going for wild type look.

Shrimps generally come from 2 main genera: caridina (bee/tiger/crs/etc) and neocaridina (cherry/yellow/snowball/etc)

You would at most be able to mix 1 from each, so that they are not going to crossbreed.
