I got what looked to be two cherry shrimps and a ghost shrimp as extras in a shipment and i keep seeing more and more shrimps!

my question is is it possible for cherry shrimp and ghost shrimp to breed together? I don't know how i keep finding more ghost shrimp unless this is possible because i didn't see the ghost shrimp holding eggs when i got it.

From what I understand ghost and cherrys are 2 different species and will not cross.

Maybe you had teeny tiny babies who are big enough now?

The two shrimps are of different species and can not cross . BUT , your Ghost shrimp may have been "fertilized" just prior to shipment and would not have shown "berries" .
