Rmeri Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 Hey there I'm pretty new to the shrimp world. I have a 28L planted aquarium and have at the minute 2 shrimp I'm unsure on what type they are. Can anyone shed some light on what species they are? I have also uploaded a picture of the tank.

Soothing Shrimp Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 What you have pictured in the first photo is a Neocaridina Davidi. Commonly called Red Cherry Shrimp or RCS. Looks like you have a nice Sakura quality there. Welcome to the forum! Rmeri 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG Aquatics Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 Thank you soothing shrimp. Also what temperature is everyone keeping there tanks at? Depends on goal. Breeder > Higher temps > Live shorter > Grows faster Just to keep them > normal / low temps > Live longer > breed slower > Grows normal/slow Rmeri 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenteam Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 People keep them at 21-24C but yours is fine since it will speed up breeding and growth rate. Rmeri 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
