    Hi everyone,

    Just wanted to ask a quick questions, i have lots of chocolate shrimplets about 2 months old , all of them does not look brown, instead most of them is transparent with stripes that look like tiger shrimp.

    Does anyone who have chocolate shrimp have this experince?

    Some even green and funny colours.

    Your tank only has chocolate shrimps or other shrimps which might have caused cross breeding?

    Many wild forms appear from the batch. Not all will appear chocolate.

    If you want only chocolate, you will need to cull those that is not your desire color.

    Most probably cross somewhere if your tank only have chocolate you shouldnt be getting that much wild form. Now got to cull all wild form to prevent further contamination to the gene.
