Hey all,

Was wondering what other kind of shrimp I could keep in with my Red Cherry shrimp that won't cross breed. Any help is welcome!
 
RCS are Neocaridina

You can add Caridina sp like CRS...but they are more fragile at first and need more exact parameters.

ghost shrimp are predatory, I don't mix them.

Amano Shrimp may grab all the food ? I kept mine separate.

I think the OP has a 10g Shrimp tank ?
Too small for Bamboo Shrimp.
Watch the Amanos, they may be fine or they may be jerks.

Haven't looked at tiger shrimp, I could order them online though. Can you keep them in the same tank with RCS and they won't cross breed the color out? I have a 10 gallon with mystery snails and rcs
