    My Shrimp

    Nope not an amano. I was saying that only marine salt produces any salinity reading that GHOSTS need. Ghost have been documented breeding in freshwater but only on very rare occasions. Amanos have been documented breeding in freshwater on countless times. P.S- Marine salt is the only salt that...

    Are they actually green? If they are green they could be Caridina cf. babaulti or a less common Caridina sp. "Dark Green"
