Fascination Bee Shrimp - Frank Logemann/Carsten Logemann/Chris Lukhaup

The authors Frank and Carsten Logemann and Chris Lukhaup sing the praises of Caridina logemanni, formerly Caridina cf. cantonensis aka bee shrimp, red bee or crystal red in"Fascination Bee Shrimp". They take us on an exciting search for the wild bee shrimp's habitat in southern China, explain with much heart and soul what keeping and breeding these beauties in the aquarium is all about, and visit various top breeders in Japan and also in Germany.

This ode to the bee shrimp is not a strict technical book, but rather a declaration of love, one could speak of fan literature. The three authors share background knowledge about Caridina logemanni and talk a little shop with their readers. The great photos and breeder visits make this little shrimp book a fascinating round thing.

The Logemann brothers have been household names in the shrimp scene since the beginning. They are authors of several reference books and articles in trade magazines and have been running a successful shrimp business in Hamburg for many years. About Chris Lukhaup and his fantastic photos one does not have to lose many words - he is known all over the world as a scientifically working adventurer who is very much inclined to photography.

This beautifully designed and great looking book breathes the fascination for the bee shrimp from every page, it's just fun to browse through it.
