manticore Posted March 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 sorry for the picture quality.. at this point it is much more important to me that the animals should breed and get the next 3-4 generations... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dendrobatez Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 The color on the last 2 is amazing, like lava that's cooling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pika Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 It is kind of a neat color you've got there, and the cooling lava description is just great. They're kind of between red and the chocolates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyana Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Almost purple! Haha, I hope we can get a purple shrimp going soon, would be so cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Crown Aquatic Trade Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Were those born with that dark color already or did it eventually turn darker? One fact that I know is that some neocaridinas do get darker as they age but if they are born with that coloration already than keep at it!!
