Just a guess but I'd say ghost shrimp

Thnx

when my LFS gave them me he said they are endangerd so i dont know lol

 

[pippoodle]

they look similar to my blue tiger babies (when they are the paler blue) cos they haven't got the lump like the ghosts- will get a pic later to compare - just off for nap

 

[Ash18]

im just looking at them now and they have a pinkish look and one of them have shed its skin


have a good nap lol

Could be male cherry shrimp (would explain the pinkish colouring you are seeing).

 

[Ash18]

im just hoping there not amano shrimp because ive already got some of those lol and i want somthing different haha

the babies were suppose to be £5.70 each but he through them in with a bamboo shrimp hehe

I would say they are either snowball shrimp or young cherry shrimp.

The shape of them makes me think they are a Neocaridina species, the price makes me think snowball but the pinkness makes me think male cherry.

Well il have to wait till they grow up abit more then and see haha


And thank you everyone for helping

They look like young cherrys to me.

I agree with the young/pale cherry idea. Ghosts look far different than that and have noticeable claws.

 

[Ash18]

id love them to be cherrys as i have never been able to find any at my LFS lol

il get some more pictures up when they have grown more and i shal keep you posted

And thanks again

They look like cherries to me, When i fished some out of my up and over trickle filter they were pale like that, now after being in the tank a few days the red is coming back.

The males are paler and smaller than the females.

whatever they are enjoy!
