Hi all

Hope everyone is well?!

So I was having a look on gumtree (which is like Craigslist) and someone is selling leopard shrimp. Only think is these don’t look like leopard shrimp to the ones on google!

Cherry shrimp not leopard shrimp. I see a cherry female in the back and I've been in this hobby for over a year now, and I have never heard about leopard shrimp.
I know what is gumtree :lol:

I know right? They made the shrimp look like fraudsters :rofl:
 
Tell the seller. See what they say
 
Looks like a male cherry shrimp, that has had a little interbreeding. (If you don't get new shrimp in your colony every half year, they will look like that)

(Males are smaller, and less red. As you can see in my signature picture)
