Aura Blue Shrimps

[Malabris]

Thanks. Some of mine look a little dull, so I wanted to make sure they are being kept in their optimum parameters. Hopefully it isn't their genes.

I haven't seen any in person but my understanding is that there is still some significant variance in the coloration of this color morph.

Not that they throw out shrimp that aren't blue but that they throw out varying colors and intensities of blue. The tangerine tigers definitely vary in degree of orange as well.

To the best of my knowledge private hobbyists started having access to Aura Blues less than a year ago in the US most who have them only got them late in the summer or during the fall so first hand care and breeding information is still a work in progress. I know that Frank Jiang has had success breeding the Aura Blues and I think Silane as well but I can't remember seeing a hobbyist report many successful clutches yet. This doesn't mean that they haven't happened but simply that I haven't noticed any "hey check out my berried mama, check out my fry!" types of threads.

Tangerine Tigers do seem to breed well though so the potential is there at the species level.

Hopefully you can have some success and in a couple of months you can have them breeding.

Did you get juvies or adults?

[Malabris]

They arrived as adults. Most of the light ones colored up. Two became more pale and died.

So has there been any luck with your cross morphous?

Anyone have any babies from just needing the auras?

[Bratyboy2]

Oh and where can you get these?
