RCS shrimp dropping eggs, is this a RCS?

[sed03f]

I noticed one of my females with overflowing eggs, they kept falling on her legs, and she'ld put them back

As I was watching her, a young male darted by and pegged her making her jump onto another leaf. She started messing with her eggs and I saw two eggs float off. I then notice a young male harassing her, which is the second clip.

These "males" I got off ebay and look suspiciously like ghost shrimp, but have only a few thin red highlights, no yellow/orange organs only black organs, and their heads look different but I cant put my finger on it.

These guys also dart around the tank constantly and they are a lot faster then the rest of the RCS males.

I was planning on taking these guys out, what do you think?


Does this guy look like a RCS?

These "males" keep harassing my pregos

Is this normal behavior?

I remember reading somewhere that Female cherry shrimp are toatally red and Male CS look clear with a dotted red pattern on them.

and I actually have RCS... this is true... entirely... except when a female RCS is stressed or not cherrying... also is untrue with most babies

also... the same thing happens to me... but I don't worry... the male RCS are male RCSes... just normal RCS behavior I guess....

looks like a rcs, but........

depending on water, stress white substrate etc, they do often loose there colour. could just be a runt and a bad colour morph.
