The Tiger Shrimp for the Freshwater Aquarium

Tiger shrimp Caridina cantonensis "Tiger"

The Tiger Shrimp is a species of shrimp in your collection. Its yellow head and yellow tail really compensate black bands along the body. It is in fact a kind of nature that can be reared in freshwater quite amateur is able to raise.

Like all other species, shrimp Tiger is going very well happen again and reproduce around the clock until he is healthy and happy. The water reservoir must be very clean and free of contaminants to ensure that this species is indeed happy. Each female produces about 20-25 infants and do so consistently if the shrimp is healthy. Once a batch of hatching eggs, it should not take more than a week for the same woman to have once again eggs.

Women are almost identical with the exception of men rather great "train" below the shrimp body. Once you see a pregnant woman shrimp, then you know identify other women in the colony. If you look at the last image from the Web link below for a pregnant shrimp and compare it to the picture above of a man and you can see how the part below the body is much greater among women. The coloring is the same for men and women.

As Tiger shrimp is becoming increasingly widespread in the hobby it has become a popular species for the "novice" lovers shrimp. I strongly recommend this species as the second choice for the amateur high after successfully raised shrimp Cherry Red and confidence enough to acquire a new species.
