Cherry Shrimp Or Tiger Shrimp?

[west-megaman]

Which one is hardier? Do they both consume alot of algae? I'm thinking about buying one of these two but need your help to choose!

Cherry shrimp are hardier and generally known to be a beginners shrimp. I have red cherry shrimp myself and a couple of sunkist (orange variant of red cherry I believe)

Tigers can be more expensive because they`re usually more appealing to the eye/different but do require more dedication/care.

Have a google on both and you`ll see what is required for each and that should give you some idea on what you would be able to keep.
