Cherry Shrimp Male Or Female?

[Spishkey]

is there a way you can tell which are male and which are female?

i bought a group of 24 and there seem to be some differences between them!

half seem to be very red, a quarter are red with a kind of yellow 'saddle' shape on their back, and the others are white almost with jut a hint of pinky red to them?

which is which and whats the third lol?

The ones with saddles are females ready to breed, from what I remember the clearish ones are the males.

Female on left, male on right. Males are less colorful and their carapace is not as round in the abdomen. They are also smaller.
