INSANE GLOW IN THE DARK SHRIMP, PLEASE READ!!!

Robby,
While I would like to believe that this is a genetic mutation, you have said nothing that would lead me to believe that it is. It sounds more like bacteria than anything else. I am not 100% discounting the possibility, but it doesn’t sound good.

Have you separated the "glowing" shrimp from the others yet?
 
Bacteria or Hoax. The singularity of the pictorial evidence combined with the existence of photoshop and the posters devotion to the idea of it being a genetic mutation screams TROLL.

The evidence stacking up for a possible bacterial cause is, i'd say, equally likely.

Either way the poster needs to separate them out and see what happens, as well as using that as a picture opportunity.
 
hey all, sorry for not responding in a loong time, i have been expanding my boss's stores, and looking into other types of shrimp, i purchased a new camera for the purpose of gettin better pictures, but simple cannot help, ill be honest, it dosent not seem like many are glowing anymore... ive seen one.. in the last month, glowing fairly brightly... and very lively! simply too hard to photo at any rate, i wish i could tell you whats going on, i constantly change their diet, and always at least one or two glow, upon the initial post i have between 10 and 20, im doing my best to try to figure this out...
 
I wish you very good luck, you can maybe sell them as glowing shrimp, and everybody would want one : ) sell each for 20$ : ) good profit
 
it would be really cool if there was a strain of glow in the dark shrimp...any one here good at science?
 
That would be cool to show to your friends, glow in the dark shrimp. I'd like to see the day when there are genetically modified glow in the dark fish that are red, green, or yellow.

Oh wait...

Glo-Fish! ... I miss my glo-fish.
 
i have shown people in my area, and its hard to beleive, but once people see them in person the reactions are phenomenal! personally i have never seen anything like this in person, the sad thing is they arent bright enough to see with much ambient light, it needs to be nearly pitch black, but once it is, its amazing

i really hope to produce some good pictures even if this is just a fluke, or something in my water, its fun none the less
