Do female sexy shrimp have larger bodies or are they pregnant?

They are excellent shrimp to have in any tank but especially a nano where you can get in really close to observe.

Thanks for a nice video, but now you make me want to set up a nano tank just to have that xexxxy shrimp :sad:. I won't see it if it goes into my 75 though.

Thanks. Yes, they are tiny maybe 1cm. They do live together in groups unlike most of the animals we keep so in a larger tank you could keep a large group and they might be visible then.

Any idea if these are pregnant?

No its not, like other shrimps you could see the sexy shrimps eggs under the moms belly when the are pregnant.

I don't think I want to spend lots of money to get a big group of them just to see one or two in my big tank though. I may have to think of setting up a nano tank in the future, because of you and Snaz :twised:
Btw, I really like your first picture. Why don't you post it for the contest of May 2012 about shrimp, I will definitely vote for your SEXY shrimp :love:
