The Red Shrimp is said to be "shy, peaceful and a nocturnal creature". If that's so than I have a totally different shrimp pretending to be a Fire Red shrimp. It's out day and night making the aquarium a living hell for my 2 Skunk shrimp. Every time they see her they run as fast far and high as they can get. She isn't afraid of me either.
Right now they are in a 16 gg BioCube but as soon as my 32 g gets cycled they are going in it. Will she calm down with a bigger tank or should I get rid of her? She's a beautiful shrimp but I like a peaceful tank.
 
I've had mine for 2 years in a 130G DT and the most I see of it is the antennae at feeding time. If you do ever want to get rid of it let me know.

hmm my blood shrimp is totally peaceful, but lives up to the reclusive nature they're known for. my skunk doesn't seem to have any issues with the blood shrimp
 
I've named my red fire shrimp "Red Sonia", terror of the BioCube.
