Golden/White Bee Shrimp - Shrimp & other Invertebrates

Just thought I'd share a photo of some of my Golden/White Bee Shrimp at feeding time this morning. These guys are very prolific and the young grow a bit faster it seems than CRS or standard Bee Shrimp. There is a lot of variety in color as well from very white to gold white and some half clear gold and white. I would love to get a few of them to come out clear gold colored and may putter a bit with some selective breeding of the clearer ones.

Cheers, Bill

Very nice...what tank parameters are you keeping them?

Wow, very nice Bill!

I've always liked the all-white coloration, like one on your site. Nonetheless, those are still awesome looking.

Southerndesert,

Would you consider selling a couple?

I will have some within a few weeks... I have two 20 gallon longs with breeding colonies, but all the young I currently have are still smaller than I like to sell them.
