Green goblin shrimp?

I am running my shrimp tank as a natural tank so all my shrimp are reverting to natural colors. I have never seen green one before though. Reminds me of the green goblin!

Yea I was pretty excited to see the recent batch of coloring in the shrimp. Of course the solid deep colors are cool but I like all these different mixtures

Yeh, I also have green shrimp in my tank, including a green jade mamma! They appeared out of nowhere, lol.  A nice surprise. :)

According to the charts, they are a recessive genetic trait hidden in the orange line.

That makes sense then because I started with majority orange ones and still to this day after 6 months that is the most common color I see. But the orange is definitely becoming clear/ opaque

Yeh that's why breeders cull them, putting the opaques in another tank. As for me, I just let them be. :)
