    Look great. My colony is about 5 years old. I’ve traded and bought new guys over the years. I find these guys very durable and have added to all my tanks. Even the clown loach tank. Loaches are very good hunters and rarely miss a meal. But these shrimp really can adjust to any situation. I still find cull survivors in their tank.
    I don’t do as much with them as I did in the beginning. But if you cull you can get these guys to solid red. Red feet an all and very bright. Mix any other color and they revert. You get lots of wilds. Add to a discus tank who aren’t the quickest hunters and these guys turn green,bright green,yellow,brown and solid black. Can’t prove it but I’d swear these guy change color.
