Any pictures?
I have bought shrimps that owner had claimed all are firereds.. but the legs are spotted or colourless, the body are spotted and not full red.. It has been a day.. so i am wondering if the shrimps will return to firered.
I keep sulawesi shrimps, tetras, birds, exotic pets, herptiles and monster fishes.
Any pictures?
my guess is most probably sakura. but it will be best to post some picture here.
Maybe those are Firered's offspring.
Do please take note that Firered's offspring does not guaranteed it offspring will be Firered.
What are the size?
Picture will be nice.
There are some females Firered that look very much like what you describe when they are young but get better color when older(during second berried). I prefer to grade them as high grade Sakura though.
Of course there are some which are already Firered from young(before berried) which are cream of the crop and not easy to get from breeder as they prefer to keep for themselves.
Sorry mind I ask, anyone can show what is firered, Sakura and cherry shrimp. When they have grow up they will have this red Line top. A bit confuse here. Which is which. And which is more sort after. For me I find that cherry is very beautiful with the strip red color pattern. Cheers
Enjoying every mins of the process. Happy Shrimping.

Like bro Hyun say most likely the parent are fire red but the offspring are cull but but of seller is not good too identify he will just pass it on as fire red cause the parent shrimp are fire red. I know some Lfs have sucky so call fire red when you look carefully they are more like sakura.
agreed, nvm all, going to refund.
This is my one and only firered i have.Photo0081.jpg

You should take a picture of the Firered that you bought.
At least then, can we really verify.

Glad that you can get a refund from the seller.
acutally where u buy from? why never check when purchasing XD
Thanks bro. Have read through. At least not so confuse already.
Yup. But if we look at other perspective firered is more expensive. That's why a lot of people will go for fire red. Which is following what others is saying that is more valuable.Hi, courtesy from Navanod under the Invertebrates section http://www.aquaticquotient.com/forum...re-Red-Shrimps. Hope it help.

Don't forget water parameters and shrimp's environment plays a huge huge role.
A fire red will show it's Colour if the environment you kept in is good, and diet plays a part too.
I've keep fire reds in internal breeder box, and the square shape white colour holding net that GC uses in the big tank. The Colour fades like hell no matter how good the water is. So I came to a conclusion is the small enclosed area that makes shrimps stress too.
You want to share the methods how you go about acclimatizing the shrimps and your tank size and water parameters? So the helpful bros here can help you
Actually there also painted fire red with legs also red too. But nowadays hard to find already.
Haha i have one.. How to breed painted fire red? Anyways... when i checked, no use because no animal will be stable in a plastic bag!

Animals can be stable in plastic bags too. You need to acclimatise your shrimps well then they will be able to adapt to your tank parameters faster with more ease.My suggestion is that you acclimatise your shrimps with the drip method over 3 hours to be safe.Afterwhich , you just need to use a net to catch the shrimp out and place in it your tank gently.
I acclimatise for 12 hours... I dont take note of the tank parameters...
