The Orange Eye tends to hold the most true out of the two options here. Expect patchy color, reds, blues, blacks, and wild coloration, lighter bodies, uneven saturation, and some translucency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWhat they do have is the orange eye or yellow eye and our genetics, at a fraction of graded price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePick Your Eye\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrange Eye\u003c\/strong\u003e — culls from our Orange Eye Blue Demon colonies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYellow Eye\u003c\/strong\u003e — culls from our Yellow Eye Red program.\u003cbr\u003eThese are the same culls offered under the Culls grade on our Blue Demon and Red Body listings — one tank each, so stock is shared across listings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho These Are For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGood for planted display tanks, first colonies, grow-out projects, and anyone who wants orange eye or yellow eye stock without paying for show-grade color. Also a reasonable starting point if you want to do your own selection work — the trait is there, the culling is up to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho These Aren't For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you want consistent, predictable color, buy the graded line. Culls will not breed true to a standard, and offspring will vary widely. We're telling you this up front rather than after you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat You'll Receive\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe eye you choose above, in the quantity you pick, of mixed-grade juvenile to young adult shrimp, unsexed, our choice of individuals. Order 5 or more of one eye and we add 1 extra shrimp free, as cover for any loss in transit. The stock count on this page is the most one order can take. Double-bagged 6x12 leak-proof bag with netting, insulated box, seasonal heat pack, printed drip-acclimation sheet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOurs runs at: temperature 74–76°F · pH 7.1–7.4 · GH 7–8 · KH 2–4 · TDS 190–220.\u003cbr\u003eNeocaridina do well in remineralized RO water or in tap water that falls within these ranges. Test your water before you order, and match GH as closely as you can — it's the swing that kills shrimp, not the value.\u003cbr\u003eFor any livestock, the tank should be fully cycled: test it first and make sure ammonia and nitrite both read 0.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShips Monday and Tuesday only, by UPS 2nd Day Air or UPS Next Day Air, with the exact rate shown at checkout. Free 2nd Day Air on orders of $200 or more.

Same guarantee as our graded stock — cull pricing doesn't mean cull treatment. Coverage depends on the shipping you choose: cash refund on Next Day Air, store credit on 2nd Day Air, and single shrimp are covered on Next Day Air only. See our refund policy for details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare Basics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrip acclimate over 1–2 hours. No copper. Keep GH stable. Feed lightly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKeep Them Separate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYellow eye and orange eye are different mutations. Crossing them loses both. House orange eye and yellow eye culls in separate tanks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTank Mates\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGood with: snails (nerite, mystery, rabbit, ramshorn) and Amano shrimp, which can't crossbreed with them. Small, calm fish such as otocinclus, pygmy corydoras and small rasboras usually leave adults alone. Avoid: bettas, gouramis, cichlids, loaches, puffers, crayfish and any fish big enough to fit a shrimp in its mouth. Almost every fish eats shrimplets, so a breeding colony does best in a shrimp-only tank. Other Neocaridina colors will crossbreed with them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Moss \u0026 Molt","offers":[{"title":"Orange Eye","offer_id":67931629748445,"sku":"MM-CE-OE-1","price":11.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Yellow Eye","offer_id":68176895410397,"sku":"MM-CE-YE-1","price":8.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0856\/5302\/9085\/files\/IMG_0222.jpg?v=1790790797","url":"https:\/\/www.mossandmolt.com\/products\/color-eye-culls-neocaridina-shrimp","provider":"Moss\u0026Molt","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
