Hi,
I just want to learn about these shrimp, they really caught my eye at my better lfs. Please can you tell me:
if they like to hide? VERY ACTIVE BUT BEST TO PROVIDE HIDING SPOTS.
Nocturnal? NO
Care? EASY
Is 26 degrees ok? YES
bigger the shrimp the better? BIGGER MEANS OLDER SO GET THE SMALLEST IN THE SHOP
Aggresive? CAN NIP PLECS TO GET THEM OFF FOOD BUT MORE OF AN ANNOYANCE THAN HARMFUL, WILL FIGHT EACH OTHER FOR FOOD BUT NOT AGGRESSIVE.

thanks, BPK
