This guy made a whole ass video of mixing shrimp colors and breeding them. Halfway through “yeah let me know if this works I’m actually color blind” I love this channel

[@gayefanner731]

Priceless! 👌

[@kazdaspaz6544]

It's really cool seeing those almost emerald green shrimp. You never normally get crazy colours like that in the hobby. But shrimp just know how to make it work 🤣

[@PsychCow]

There is a flow chart you can look up on how to get which colors. Almost all of them are from "stuff like this" XD

[@kazdaspaz6544]

@@PsychCow I figured that would be the case hahaha 🤣

[@77nv]

It's as shrimple as that

[@tarundasniper]

How do i get green shrimp? Is there any way?

[@_GTX___]

So unfortunately shrimp genetics arnt as easy as putting a blue and a red together to get a purple. So Neocaridina shrimp can be broken into 4ish families. The snowballs are a family. The yellows, oranges and greens are a family. The reds, blue jelly’s and the blacks are a family. Then the last are Bloody Marys, blue dreams, blue velvet, chocolates and black roses. Now yellows can make green babies but blue dreams can’t. So those greens your seeing are from 2 yellows and not a yellow and a blue. When you cross shrimp that arnt in the same family you get clear wild type babies. But if you breed a Bloody Mary and a blue dream you will get blue and red babies but never both in one shrimp. Purple is the rarest color for freshwater shrimp. They pop up at random from blue velvet breeding groups. Hope this helps! :)

[@_GTX___]

Also to anyone who is thinking I’m cappin when you looked at the green ones. Did you see any blue and green ones? Nope there is just yellow and green ones.

[@nickvisser479]

That intresting so if I put blues with my reds would they mix or would they just have blue dreams and cherry?

[@_GTX___]

@@nickvisser479 well that depends. There are 2 or 3 different lines of “reds” if you have Bloody Mary reds then you should get red and blue shrimp. If you have like fire reds then you will probably just get clear shrimp if the blue and reds breed together.

[@jueadeo8843]

I believe he got the yellow shrimp from his yellow cherry colony and there's not a single green shrimp there. So surely, the blue would've had some factor to create the green/yellow shrimp outcome.

[@_GTX___]

@@jueadeo8843 well then why isn’t there any blue shrimp with green patches? Why is it only yellow shrimp with green patches? Yellows and greens come from the same family. Greens are created from yellows without blue shrimp being involved what so ever. A quick google search will tell you that crossing colors will pretty much lead to wild type colored shrimp. Aka clear.

[@frankzajac3158]

At the end of the video, 4:50, there is a baby that looks more like a neon greenish or even maybe an "aqua" blue/green, to me. It's not green but definitely a different shade of green than the others. Again at 5:01 there is a good comparison to a larger yellow/green shrimp front left of tank

[@MorphedWombat]

Omg that baby looks sick at 4:50

[@MorphedWombat]

I want to try this in a low maintenance tub doesn’t have to be lots of money which I like just throw in some Java moss and boom

[@Wolfyfur2]

“Bare with me I’m colour blind” “here we have a brown shrimp” but it’s green. Haha love it, good work man 👌

[@gayefanner731]

Legend ! 😎

[@jameshunt4097]

Marble Queen pothos is a slightly slower grower than other pothos bcoz it's not producing as much green leaf to photosynthesise with. Also once it's root system establishes it'll start to push out leaves consistently. Love the bin idea as well mate, it came in handy when my son brought goldfish home and they needed a temporary pond

[@Eli-akad]

The irony of him being color blind while conducting this experiment🤣

[@gayefanner731]

Priceless! 👌

[@Jefada]

My favorites are still the blue. Love blue. The color you were asking was green and some had gold/green.

[@ShrimpMania]

Normally it doesn't work like that when you mix different colors of neos you going to get a brown wild type of shrimp. That green shrimps looks big and very mature there is no way they grow so big in 3 month. The shrimp only caring eggs for 30 days. Some blue shrimps has green tint in them and I think because they've been in the dark for so long they become pale and started to look more green

[@sarahwoodring5587]

I'm also colorblind and I have an awful time even being able to see shrimp in my tanks against the substrate and the green plants. I finally found some rad orange shrimp and they're so much fun!

[@ericamontoya7168]

That's really cool, I didn't think they'd turn such a pretty color and have some cool colors! Hopefully the red and blue get going soon!

[@emmasoanes7272]

watching this i want to cry, knowing what is involved with getting colours to their high quality and personally knowing that from cull tanks when they are mixed they tend to throw more wild colour (brownish/clear)

[@AnubisFenrir]

4:00 We got you those are most definitely green, a nice bright green at that keep up the amazing work. 👌🏾 Can't wait until you produce those purple shrimp next

[@sreeraja1735]

I also breed shrimps in plastic bins. Just add some lava rocks and driftwood with moss attaches. They will breed like crazyyy 😂

[@Alexis-hb4fk]

I love this!!! Our local fish stores have red ones sometimes but typically just the clear ghost shrimps. I want blue and green ones!

[@IanArizpeArroyo]

3:58 funniest part of the video

[@gayefanner731]

Legendary 👌

[@caliboy705]

The green is soooo green!! Greetings from California 😁

[@EKr33ger]

Was really hoping for more updates on this experiment

[@yifanyin9845]

Yes they are green with some yellow patches. Kinda jade colour

[@olabenne5519]

Saw your video in the morning. Back again . Great work!!

[@turi-ffic]

the bins are great. i would go with white or grey to see them tho.

[@NetherViking]

Amazing results for the yellow and blue tank. :) Love the bright color green

[@Sue.5776]

Very cool, love the blue yellow mixing of these shrimp.

[@jaywrittenour5770]

You might want to consider getting a pair of EnChroma glasses so you can enjoy the colors you are breeding.

[@sblijheid]

How cute! You got green shrimp!

[@rexwater1]

Ain't he just the cutest!😜😍

[@rachaelreczenski7270]

Would love to see an in-depth tutorial on successfully breeding single color shrimp in tubs. I did see that another KZbinr did a similar experiment (what do you get when you mix colors) and he found that after a few generations, they reverted to "clear" looking blah shrimp. I mean, I wouldn't mind having shrimp that blend in like they did, but breed easier than Amanos. Maybe fish wouldn't spot them and prey on them as easily? Idk Not an experiment I'd want to lose money on 😅

[@grundy1019]

I have red and blue shrimps in my tank and they had blue, red, clear and mainly brown with some a golden brownish colour. Very cool.

[@NinjaSushi2]

Nice! Here is the video I've been waiting on.

[@danielthompson3205]

That's so cool a shrimp with green an yellow head.. Instantly name "Ozzy spirt"..

[@mrjlarsen]

Love your green ones

[@MrAngel2U]

Hi. thaNK you for sharing. I had no idea Pothos were good in an aquatic setup

[@Gldfish-cp9yb]

Every now and then KZbin recommends me some golden videos and this is one don’t know why I’m so interested but I am

[@OnyxMafea]

Super cool! I saw a video of someone that had done something similar outside and the shrimps did amazing. Since then wanted to always give it a shot one day! Got some shrimp on my channel, they're super interesting to watch.

[@wallyandjilly375]

I’m in love with the emerald shrimp!

[@tomaswall6935]

I like these simple experimental videos too that you drop back to every few weeks 👌

[@choogiesaur]

Love the result from the blue and yellow tub!

[@caitlintom6360]

I’ve been waiting for thissss 🤩

Love those green shrimp 🦐

[@NaginiFay]

Thanks!

[@blackmoonmermaid4786]

bright neon green shrimp id love some

[@Homophobic_]

I don't have any fishes or shrimp...but i just love your videos man❤️...keep up the work❤️✨

[@jamiebeam9919]

Have to point this out to you you said that brown mixed one it wasn’t brown it was a really nice colour the top was a green and almost camo pattern down to a yellow colour I’ve never seen that mutation in neo shrimp before nice

[@marly689]

Putting blue and yellow together should not have created green shrimp because genetics don't work like that. So I'm completely blown away by the fact that that's exactly what happened.

[@silvertears13]

this was awesome! it would also def be cool if we got a betta update, it has been two months

[@jessl1934]

4:10 holy heck, I wasn't expecting you to drop Naz¡ terminology in this video lmao

[@anowhouston]

Those green shrimp look so cool

[@siyM3YdQui]

I am colourblind as well

[@rgilroy1909]

so cool, didn't think you'd get green shrimp---wow

[@brendanashby6624]

That's pretty cool the yellow and blue breeded and made green ones that's the colour when you mix blue and yellow together

[@Kira-kg4kl]

Yeah those green shrimp look awesome 👌

[@Fish_Nexus]

The yellow green mix is pretty cool 🤙

[@cinnamonoa]

those green shrimp look really cool

[@ThatTetraTank]

The second bin with yellow and blue made green and lime green shrimp

[@MrWhathap]

Your pothos need to be further down in the water. There's like 6 inches of the root system exposed to the air above the water line. They will grow much healthier if you fully submerge the roots.

[@mynamesjudge]

They were originally more submerged but a lot of the water evaporated.

[@wingingitadventures]

I'm guessing you live somewhere warm. I may try this because I think I'm doing way too much. Not sure this will work with North Eastern weather but I'm enjoying your videos

[@gigi3242]

ooooo, I need to get some yellows, I have really dark blues. Thanks for the research and the video. Be well

[@Level13Gaming]

That yellow greenish small one...people say breeding colors together always ends up brown. Think it's finally time to stock the 6.5

[@stonejr74]

Awesome project, can't wait to see what other colors pop up

[@bradoneal4209]

Give your Cherry and Blue Dreams more time! I have some very nice mixes going on I've been breeding out. Looks like Spiderman :)

[@QuailsFarmY]

theyre almost like a neon green type of colour, thats heaps cool dude

[@Matt-du9ez]

nice vid. any updates on borneo suckers? having such a hard time myself

[@tizok100]

The green ones look great

[@Aydan.K]

omg the shrimp are actually green nice i gotta try that one day!

[@narutohuntmendemon6354]

4:05 green, light green

[@LatelierDeMandy]

I would like to know what's the ideal temprature for the shrimp. In the room I would like them it vary (winter/summer) 15° to 35°C

[@MrLeminhman]

Thanks for the update

[@handy-capoutdoors4063]

Question and possible video idea. You keep promoting Java moss and I have been. Looking here in the states. However the moss I find eather has zero Information or says it is a mix of Java moss, Christmas moss, guppy grass, and other moss. All patchwork together on a 5x5cm square. Or loosely stuffed into a 4oz condiment container. And prices range from $5-28 US. Many reviews have low ratings showing a small bit of brown green in a bag next to. Coin or bottle cap in a vacuumed sealed bag and the moss is ser than the bottle cap or coin and there are some big spots where you can see through the moss shows its not very much at all. This has been frustrating not to mention my local shops don't have Java moss. Only balls labeled moss. I have been thinking it would be nice to set up a Java moss farm so there is a place here in the states you can get pure bread Java moss. What are some reputable online dealers you would reccomend or if you know of a place that grows tons of it for local use would they maybe sell some and ship to the USA? I think I would basically want to start with a thick growth of 1/4 Sq foot or 1 square foot. 15x15cm or 30x30cm If it's grown on mesh or fibrous mats. Or enough moss to spread out over that same area without it being so thin you can clearly see through it. As far as prices would like to keep price including shipping under $50 US as long as what is shipped is worth it. As for video idea it may be a couple months in the making. The idea being to take a small sample of each type of moss you can find in the aquarium trade. Put them In a tank together at a typical tropical aquarium temperature. Run a test to see what grows faster and how large it grows. Cut 2 chunks from each sample of the same size. Using the same tank water put the cut bits of moss into 2 new tanks. In the new tanks: In 1 raise temperature in the other, lower the temperature record what the temperature ranges actually are for these samples to die. Now back to the original tank split the samples in half and put in a second tank in 1 raise ph amd the other lower PH. Record what their range is before death. Present findings. With opinions on each. Thanks for listening

[@ZaneofAustin]

those green ones are impressive. you should try to cull those and get your own genetic line going

The results are pretty cool can't wait to see the cherrys and blue dreams to mix to see if it's worth getting myself some blues for my colony

[@isabelestevez7612]

if they mix the babies are probably going to be white, not purple

[@nickvisser479]

@@isabelestevez7612 yip unfortunately someone told me they would make wild types so guess I'm gonna have to stick to my cherry colony for now

[@eros5556]

add more java moss and put a cheap led light

I love the mixes! Thanks for the update! So awesome!

The biggest bomb dropped with all these different color shrimps and the attempt to cross breed is the fact that this dude is color blind 😂

Never seen green ones that colour!

Can you do a update with the shrimps? Very interesting, I have a mixed tank myself and all have full pure colors. No mixes and always baby's around.

[@dr.kennethnoisewater26]

What colors are you talking about? They’re all clear

[@LogacysAquaticLove]

That was sick!

[@Marjuuu]

If you took out the greenish ones and bred them separately would they stay green?

[@AngryKittens]

If you keep culling the ones which aren't, eventually the color will mostly stick (there will always be throwbacks, that's just genetics). But it will still revert if they mix with other strains.

[@jack27nikk38]

Green 🤯😍😲

[@joaooliveira6135]

How is this project going? I'm curious
