    Re: got this gem from a tank of tigers

    i got them from hensburg fish shop at serangoon a distance near to the petmart.
    manage to get 4 of them... 2 of them have blue bodies with black eye...
    hopefully i can cross them with blue pearl to intensify their blue in their offspring...

    that is where i pay $8 for those bumble bee also...haiz..
    dunno who the supplier tell that auntie that the bumble bee is CBS....

    yesterday i went down again this time they have CBS and some bee left...
    any Pros there want to enlighten the auntie there the difference btw bumble bee and CBS

    your tiger cannot be cross with blue pearl as they are of different sp.

    tiger shrimp = ( Caridina cantonensis sp. tiger )

    Blue Pearl Shrimp
    = Neocaridina cf. zhangjiajiensis var. blue

    CBS = crystal black shrimps ( Caridina cantonensis sp. crystal black )

    bumble bee shrimp = Caridina trifasciata

    you might have higher chance crossing your blue gem with aura blue.

    You might want to observe it for awhile. Blue like this could be caused by stress when it was in the plastic bag.
