[quote=”7 Zwerge” post=3143]Hello you all!
Now I have another question:

I´ve got my simoni simoni shrimps some time ago.
They seem to do well.

Before I got the simoni, my friend “invaded” some red fire shrimps without much color, small and bigger ones, about 10 or 11, we think, in the dark water tank …

I cought most of them out of the tank before I set the simoni into the water ….
But I guess there still are left two or three or four, specially the smaller not coloured ones ;-( ….
Do you think they will disturb the simonis breeding with their pheromones?

They won’t breed across the species the cross breed list say …[/quote]

They should be fine. I have simoni happily breeding in a tank with Neocaridina heteropoda (of which ‘red fire’ are a morph).
