How Many Cherry Shrimp Can I Have In 15g?

There is a good possibiblity that by diluting the black gene with dominate red genes then the offspring will be more brown/ chocolate than their father. Unfortunately I am not really sure what caused the colour change in the male, I am hoping its not because he was not a strong black and is just because of the brightness of the tank.

A lot of interesting genetic learning opportunity here. I've learned it in books all these years but never had the opportunity to practice.

When there are shrimp in the LFS they're commonly red cherries, I'm defenitly on the lookout for others.

Thanks for the advice, guys, and thanks to the mods for moving the thread.

most fish shops wont stock the colour morphs unless asked, but its just as easy to buy them online, i got mine off ebay
