Jet Black Shrimp?

[TekFish]

I was at my LFS buying some Panda Cories and in their tank there was a small shrimp about a cm long but it was jet black. The guy said he'd never seen anything like it so he fished it out and stuck it in the shrimp tank at the front of the store. Anyone know what it is?

There are black cherry shrimp, and chameleon shrimp will change colours and go black.

Black crystal shrimp possibly? There are full black ones.

Hmm...I was just wondering, he made it sound like it was a rare occurrence.

Did you get it? Might have been a black crystal

No, it would be unfair if there was only one.

It looks like a Fire Black Shrimp actually.
