After reading links on that reverse photography, i have to say, you must have a lot of patience to take such beautiful shots...

Amazing collection you got there!

Try asking msjinkzd...she's good with identifying Inverts. Kind of curious myself to see if that mystery shrimp is commonly available.

I notice shrimp keeping is not very popular here. Hopefully this hobby can flourish.

^ i think a lot of people are put off by the care requirements of shrimp... especially the more exotic ones like CRS and King Kongs etc... i mean having to run chillers is added expense which can add up quickly unfortunately...

I know i've been put off keeping expensive shrimp coz i don't want to lose my stock, and i definitely don't want to be running a chiller basically 24/7... my electricity bill is high enough as it is...

Although i'm now considering sulawesi shrimp for my future tank, since they prefer warm water rather than cold water...

I will say sulawesi is harder to keep imho. But yes, the investment in the chiller is the only thing that is gonna cost the hobbyist. But well it's worth it.
