I am just wanting to make sure, Neocaridina species can't mate with Caridina species. Is this correct?
Thanks for the info.

Thanks Yoink, I wanted to be sure. Better safe then sorry

I was given some CRS that had breed with Tiger shrimp once. They looked cool, but I got rid of them quick.

Yes, you can safely assume that.
