I recently got some rainbow shrimp and they are by far now my favorite shrimp. Their color ranges anywhere from neon green, red, purple, blue, to almost black. I just think their coloration is awesome with their white stripes and eyes makes for a wonderful sight! The pictures do not do justice, it does not show their true coloration.
Here are some pics of the shrimp. Does anyone know the exact species of the shrimp? They can breed in the tank and grow to about the size of a cherry shrimp. If not, does anyone know of any good shrimp forums that might be better able to give me an accurate guess on the species? I narrowed them down to a few known species, but am not sure since I know that the "rainbow shrimp" types are often a generic term given to color changing shrimp.
