are these just cherry shrimp? seems thats one difference between here and there... when we actually get rcs... they are very red.
Let the current take you where you may not always want to go.

They call these Fire Red Cherries. The colors on them are much more thick and solid compared to normal cherries that we commonly see.

In the second pic the top female had eggs on its lower back, I was trying to capture that from my camera but if you look carefully its all orange, these shrimp carry huge clutches.....
Another thing I noticed about these shrimp that differ from the common cherries is they dont have a long stripe on them and grow to double the size!
Thanks for all the comments.who is yo daddy and what does he do?

Are they a different species, or just a larger strain?
