Of Sulawesi Shrimps

[Matt]

Think your poison is deeper. I usually just sleep and not think about them but think about what I have to do the next day... I think you already "Go Fire Into Devil" (Chinese Idiom).

[Draka]

Thanks Matt. Now hand itchy for blueberry too argh ><

[Matt]

I think they do sell Blueberries in NTUC or other supermarkets as well!! Do get your quick fix there

[Draka]

Haha nice. Eww that kind sour though, I rather have mine with cream...

[Matt]

Well... As long as it cures your itch

For those who loves Fire Red... Sulawesi has got Malili Red...

[Fingerling]

Nice deep red tone the malli red shrimps got, it's gonna be in my to get list definitely haha.

Matt, what camera are you using?
I still trying to capture the BDRL, but picture still not very clear

[Matt]

Using iPhone 4 with Macro attachment bought from Gmarket. 😊

[Matt]

Seriously speaking, anyone able to ID this shrimp?

[Matt]

I feel highly is Red Orchid, try taking more pictures of it in another angle.

Bro, I still think it's closer to Mini Blue Bee and none of them are going near the glass panels, thus unable to take another better shot but will still try.... Also, the pic where you pointed a query on whether it's a Caridina Veronica or otherwise, I think need to have a brighter pic too.

[Draka]

Looks like cooper or coco bee. But could be normal babaulti too..

Looks like coco bee / cooper bee like what Draka feels too.

[Matt]

I have a cooper bee in my tank and this is definitely quite far from it. I am thinking along Coco.... But still not 100% sure about it.... Don't think it's a Babaulti (pronounced as Baba - ooty, just in case you are curious). Duno whether to love or hate the supplier for sending over some Rojak of shrimps...

[Draka]

Haha pics of the cooper please! So far we only have the reference photo from aristocrama, its not enough And babaulti was a suggestion as them buggers can fade their lines, change their colour, come up with pigmentation spots, although yea, your shape don't look like one... Typing at 3am isn't a good idea haha

Will try to take a pic soon, they are either hiding in all sorts of places or just too far for me to take a Macro shot.

Hi matt and guys,

any write up avail for read? Decomming my tank soon, looking at these sulawasis is making mi keen on keeping and breeding them.

[Matt]

Hi Darter, have sent you a PM as not sure if it's permitted to post it here.

[Matt]

Finally some more pics and unknown shrimps for identity fun. These shrimps just do not look like they belong to any of the Sulawesi Shrimps I know.

Red Powder Shrimp or what?


Indo Blue Bee or what?


Red Powder or what again?


Three Spot Red or what?


Six Bended or what?


These Sulawesi Shrimps just are too flamboyant that sometimes, their colours just do not tell you anything much.
