"This is normal with all new shrimp coming into the market, none breed true. Bloody Mary are supposed to be characterized as having short rostroms, yet a lot being exported to the us, and even bred and sold in the us have long rostroms. "
Is not true, this was a marketing tactic that one of the first creators of the stain said, that it had a short rostrom. They later balked at it when they were found sending out shrimp with out the short rostrom. a short rostrom would show as a defect in a shrimp more or less. The Distributor has now backed off this comment from everything I have read.
Bump: I have bloody marrys and I am seeing same numbers as the OP almost. Out of 50 shrimp kept 10. I am trying to see in 6-10 generations if all the good ones are kept if they will breed truer or if it is a lost cause
