Update on Tibee Shrimp: A Weird Tibee?? New Tank for Tibee/Pinto

This is a very unique tibee shrimp I got from my cross breeding.Pretty cool looking! Pretty or Weird?

She is the only one. It's not like a crystal red/black shrimp, neither a tiger shrimps. The body is clear, with light blue green tint, head with orange tint. She's now berried, mate with other normal looking tibee shrimps. I am really looking forward to her babies. And I think I spot more small tibee shrimps look like her, but not sure until they get much bigger. 

And this is a new tank for my tibee/pinto shrimps. The tank is filled up with algae: glass, gravel, driftwood :)

I will take more pictures of what's going on with this tank, after I clean the glass. 

I really like this one, it gets really cool tiger pattern. Both black and white color are solid.
Plus it's leg is mostly filled up with black color.

Fancy Tibee Shrimp Photo Sharing

Jade Bienvenu is among the very first purchaser of my Tibee shrimp. Recently, he shared with me his amazing beautiful tibee shrimps he got from me about 5 month ago. I have to say and thank him, that he did a great job in keep those tibee shrimps to their full potential beauty, especially this blue female. It looks very much like a orange eye blue tiger, plus striking bright white band, making it really outstanding. The red one and black one are also very beautiful. And they grow to bigger size than crystal red shrimps, better standing out in your aquarium.

And here are his tank parameters:

pH 6.0

kH 0

gH 4

TDS 115-125

 

"The colors changed the more acidic and soft the water is. The logic to me is maybe stress but they are breeding so maybe not. I had them in 7.2 kh3 gh8 and tds 200, they were clearish gold and tiger striped. When transfer to bee tank to breed with Taiwan's, they turn blue. Also, blue is deepest and brightest in the morning." Quote From Jade.

Tibee shrimps are a lot of fun to play with. Because of cross breeding, there are much more new combination of genetic pattern.

Thank you for sharing Jade!!

 

Fancy Tibee Shrimp Update

 

This tibee has very nice and solid white color and black color. It has no stripe, instead, a no entry sign like crystal black shrimp. The head pattern is very unique and symmetric on both side. What surprises me is that the white color of this shrimps is very solid, and on it's head, you can clearly see blue tint on white color, also on it's body. It's same blue color like blue bolt shrimp.  WOW.

 

And this one. Beautiful red tibee shrimps + Orange EYE 

 

Another nice and solid red tibee shrimps.

I can't believe they can grow in such a big and nice size. Way much better size compare to crystal red shrimp or OEBT.

How to crossbreeding Tibee Shrimp

A lot of people ask me how to crossbreeding to get Tibee Shrimps.

That's great that people have different ideas and thoughts. Here is my personal experience.

Reasons I chose to go with Orange Eye Blue Tiger and Taiwan Bee Mischillings:

Top 1: Pinto Shrimps are my top goal in crossbreeding tibee shrimp.

You need to have mischillings or Taiwan bee shrimps in crossbreeding to have pintos from offsprings. If without Taiwan bee shrimps gene, you would never get pinto shrimps from offsprings. To be clear, Taiwan Bee Shrimps refers to Black King Kong Shrimp, Panda Shrimps, Shallow Panda, Wine Red, and Red King Kong Shrimps.

 

If you want to get pintos faster:

OEBT x Wine Red, you get red pinto from F2 or later generation

OEBT x Black King Kong, you get blue or other dark color pintos from F2 or later generation

 

When you choose Taiwan Bee Shrimps, you want to choose the most healthy and with strong breeding capacity Taiwan Bee Shrimps.

 

2: Orange Eye and Unique Blue Color From OEBT

 

OEBT has been popular for long for it's unique blue color and orange eye. I want to keep those gene to my tibee shrimps, and my pintos.

 

When you choose a tiger shrimp and a kind of bee shrimps, yes the hybrid offsprings are called tibee shrimps. You want to set a goal what kind of tibee shrimps you want.

 

The recessive gene in my choices are:

White Color

Red Color

Orange Eye

Taiwan Bee Shrimp Gene

 

You won't get those from F1, these character will show on F2 or later generation.

And there are too many pattern and coloration from my F1s. I did selective breedings, and you can see my black tibees (F2/F3) show nice pattern and coloration. Offsprings from those black tibees could be black tibee, red tibee, and possible pintos. I have a few red pintos from my F2 black tibees.

 

Here are new picture of my red pinto, it's growing big now :)

Tibee Shrimp =
Orange Eye Blue Tiger Shrimp x Taiwan Bee Mischillings Crystal Red/Black Shrimp

Recessive gene traits:

• From OEBT: Orange eye, blue color;
• From Taiwan Bee Mischilling: Red Color, White Color, King Kong Gene.

 

The 1st generation, all the recessive gene won't appear, here we got:

 

 

The F1 tiger bee shrimp are clear, with black stripe, no recessive gene traits. AND those guys can grow huge :]. Check out the photos:

The Amano shrimps around the tiger bee shrimps are size around 1.5'' - 1.75''. And that's a female tiger bee shrimps. Will it cross breed with Amano shrimps???

There are two challenge here about F1s.
1. They can grow to a very good size, so it takes time, takes to mature, and breed;
2. Berried Tiger shrimps are easily fanning and dropping eggs.

Anyway, after a longer time than I expected, we are now on F2s.
There are A Lot A Lot of trait combination showing among F2s. Some tibees are with orange eye, blue color. And I have red tibee from F2 as well. White color starts to fill up the clear part. Black Tibee, Red Tibee, White Tibee, Unknowns, and I do get a few pintos from my F2.
(Pintos are too small to shown nice in my camera, will post some picture after they grow bigger. Looking forward seeing how they look after growing up :))))
