Pretty! I've never seen any in person, and didn't realize they were speckly like that.

Awesome! I recently setup a shrimp tank starting with 17 that I got from the classifieds here and it's quickly becoming my fav tank. I already have 2 females carrying eggs! Can't wait for them to mature more and color up. Your's are gorgeous!

I just got 3 more myself. very little ones, abotu a half inch. so cute. I just wish they were a little more active.

give them things to be active with. floating single leaves would be an example. they swim up to these leaves, grab one, and hang onto it as it sinks, upside down. it's amusing as far as 3/4" shrimp go.

yeah, they have floaters... plenty of obstacles. they really seem to like being shaded on the substrate. my amanos on the other hand... those guys are NUTS. I've even seen them use duckweed like a surfboard and swim around the surface holding on. so fun!
