Congrats!

They sound like a fun shrimp to keep. Might have to try them one day.

Cool! I love my cherry shrimp. Unfortunately, my betta seems to eat anything I put in the tank with him

Got them on Saturday...they are so far doing great. I put them in 4 betta tanks and my guppy tank, but found out that one of my bettas is too grumpy...the hard way, poor guy ...the others are fine, the bettas occassionaly give chase, but the shrimp just burrow in the middle of the javamoss and the betta gives up easily.

Hopefully, I can get these guys to breed so i can have more!!
