that would make sense that the germans would call them Sakuras and the asians would just call them pumpkins.... haha thanks for the info.

Do the two origins affect what water parameters these shrimp are a best fit for? Since they are the same price I'm just trying to figure out which one I should order.

I've kept both. Same water parameters are fine.
