94vtirozguy Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Does DAE = DAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddzvk Posted March 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 yes pretty sure they are interchangable terms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bettarazzi Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Maybe interchangeable. Maybe dyslexia. Maybe people aren't as good at typing with their thumbs as we'd like. Wouldn't you expect DAE to be a native version of SAE? And therefore not use it for a shrimp? Especially when all the other shrimp acronyms end in S. But no. That would be too simple.

lodo Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Is this another place we aren't allowed to use any form of logic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddzvk Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 get your head out of fish and into shrimp. pretty sure they are both for the darwin algea eating shrimp but people most often use DAE since the shrimp sort of known in context (on shrimp forum etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbreed Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 There's so many different variations on the abbreviations. SW. Snow White bee GB. Golden bee Careful with Rilli, there is red rilli, red rilli blue gene, carbon rilli and some are starting to breed yellow rillis now. Blue cherry shrimp are generally known as Blue Velvet (from rilli) Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddzvk Posted March 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 blue velvet seems to depend on the intensity of the blue as well rillis i dont even know if anyone on here has them of course theres always additions and changes. thats language for you.
