HELP Shrimp for beginners

[eroomlorac]

Will the Cherries and the Yellows interbreed? I know some shrimp will and some won't but I don't know about these two.

 

[thebullit]

yes they will interbreed as there the same spiecies

 

[msjinkzd]

i agree, both are neocaridina so can interbreed.

Will you end up with orange shrimp or will they be brown?

 

[msjinkzd]

most likely they would end up being predominantly wild colored (reddish brown) although I am sure you would end up with some babies that were either red or yellow, with red probably being dominant over yellow. I haven't tried it as they are so lovely on their own.
