Hello;

Purchased 6 Red cherry shrimp yesterday and noticed 3 of them don't look like red cherry. One of the looks like Red Fire Shrimp and the other two can be Bamboo shrimp. Here are the pics.

They are all red cherry shrimp to me

See the last two pics there's a white light at the top of the shrimp.

all the RCS..few are of pretty lower grade though..other than that RCS for sure.

All are RCS to me as well.

The white stripe is usually present in older shrimp and is normal.

good to know. Can you tell if they are male or female?

you'll know in time if they're female when they saddle up. but from what i know/see they all look to be female

I thought I located three males. Am assuming they're males, due to small part of their bodies being covered with red dots.

They all appear to be female to me as well.

Some appear berried.

I agree with them they are RCS

Looks like fem RCS, however it is always hard to make an accurate gender guess unless looking at the shrimp directly from the side.

 

[sbarbee54]

Looks liek RCS to me

Usually it's females that get the racing stripe in old age. Not always, but for the most part, at least in my experience.

I'll try to get a photo of the other three that I think might be males, later tomorrow.
