What kinds of shrimp do you have in your tank?

[customdrum]

cherrys,snowballs,minaimis,blue pearls and malayan/ rainbow shrimp

i will vote rainbow shrimp as the best looking easy care shrimp there is, although not easy to find my lfs has them as amano shrimp, there not.
mine change colors whenever they want and look great, but they wont breed in the normal tank. heres a pic of the rainbow shrimp when they were red, they have changed from red, white, black and blue.

cherrys,yellows and snowballs are the easy ones to get and there not to expensive!

look close in 1st pic right side of wood there is a black one.

I have Red Cherries and Blue/Blacks. Local pet shop here sells Amanos for like $1.50/each.

Those Rainbow shrimp are also sold here in KY, but I'm not sure on the price. They sell them as generic Algae Eating shrimp. They don't know anything about the species either (surprise!).
