A little bit ago I bought some carbon rili, and the ones I recieved where the standard blue/clear with black spots. The first batch of fry has finally reached adult size, and I hadn't been paying much attention but some of them gained a golden back with brownish to black spots. Anyone else seen this color in the Neocaridinia? And does anyone have suggestions for how to breed the color combo out? I wasn't expecting anything but blue black and clear XD. Pic has one of the original 12 next to one of the babehs.

You would need to either find a few other shrimp with a similar colors to try and breed them in a box by themselves, and hope the gene carries over... not impossible, but a lot of luck involved for sure...
