C328 has Ap. Bitaeniata Tefe as well...but not very good condition

Managed to take any pictures? Especially the shrimp?

Yup saw the A. agassizii tefe . Very brillant colours and was on the verge of buying them. But not sure if they are a pair. Thought of taking a risk. haha.

Just bought a German from C328. Colours was quite good but after adapting to my tank water, they now looked even more majestic.

**leeruisheng** · 30th Aug 2007, 21:56

Oops left out the word ram. Sorry. Yeah German rams.

hmmm... majestic looking German... in a tank...

Well, I bought 3 Orange Shrimps for my office nano tank. They look great. Are healthy and hope they would spawn soon :P

Seems that they are the latest variant of shrimps in the market....

Something different from the usual red shrimps

When I saw the rams in C328, the colours were already nice. Thus decided to buy. But after transferring them into my tank, they are now even more attractive.

Very nice specimen you've got....

I went down to take a look tonight. The orange shrimp at Polyart are indeed very cute, and don't look like recoloured/washed out cherries at all...i'll try to describe. While cherries look kind of like the red is brushed onto the exoskeleton, these orange shrimp look transparent with the body being evenly coloured a transparent orange...hopefully you get what i mean

they're cute and different from what i usually see in shrimp tanks...if you're a shrimp collector, definitely go down to take a look.

The Apisto. agassizii "tefe" in C328 doesn't look like it has white spot, but as with most C328 apistos, look quite listless in their small tank. C328 has a pair of red killies that looks really good though!

That's all for my field report

i was abit rushed as my fiancee was with me and chasing me to go

I've seen the orange shrimp. Very interesting looking shrimp. It reminds me of my orange highlighters!

Orange, red, pink and green - soon we'll have the whole range of colours!
