Taxon or trade identification
Orange Boa (TB Shrimp) — Breeder trade selection; Caridina.
Appearance / taxonomic evidence
A TB Shrimp Orange Boa selective project is directly referenced in breeder video records.
Wild distribution or documented breeder region
Vietnam; TB Shrimp-labelled line
Lineage and species identification
Breeder describes selection; social-post stock ratios are anecdotal and require logs before quantitative breeding inference. No assumed universal Boa inheritance.
Breeding, husbandry and authentication
For scientific taxa, do not assume that commercial Cherry, Bee, Tiger or Boa water chemistry or mating patterns apply. Confirm habitat and reproductive mode with primary literature and specimen-based identification. For captive trade strains, request breeder-specific generations, sexed parents, stable water logs and records of culls and re-selection. Avoid wild collection and release of nonnative shrimp.
