Red/Blue rilis, who's got 'em?

Edub · 06-21-2012, 03:41 PM

I'll be setting up a new shrimp tank in the upcoming weeks and I'm considering my stocking options. I'm looking for rili shrimp that look like the "B" grade in this thread - http://www.plantedtank.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=174527

Ya know, blue bodies with red heads and tails. So cool looking. Who's got 'em so I can add you to my contact list

i have not seen any that blue some people have something close look though the thread but no one has them down to that blue and red that i know of. cameras can make colors not so real i know first hand on this. one of mine makes more yellow and the other tends to bring out the blues when using flash

+1. I see lots of people selling rilis in the SnS. Try Mordalphus too.

OP is looking for this rili not rili in general

IMO the camera played with the real colors. Usually people breed out the red in blue rilis, but it should be easily possible to create your own by a simple blue rili/red rili cross.

wicca27 is correct, that is the rili im looking for. I have a few regular red ones that I really like, but those blue/red guys are SUPER cool. Just seeing if anyone has a colony of them.

I have a few, but they are not for sale. I'm sure you are going to run into that a lot with those that have these shrimp. I sell off my culls, but the A and B on that thread stay in my tank. Let me know if you want to buy some culls.

You will probably have to make your own of those.

Jimko is selling both blues and reds in swap n shop at the moment at a really good price. I got an order of each.

He rocks with customer service.
