1. Different colors: There are great differences between glazed shrimp and cherry shrimp, and the obvious one is their body color. Cherry shrimp are red in color and have sporadic transparent spots on their bodies, which look the same as cherry blossom stamens from a distance, which is why they get their name. The body of glazed shrimp is transparent, the head and tail are bright red, but the middle of the body is transparent. The feet of cherry shrimp are also sporadic red, while the feet of glazed shrimp are transparent.

2. Different species: Cherry shrimp is a natural species, which is mainly distributed in Taiwan, China and other Southeast Asian countries. Glass shrimp is an improved new variety, but they are the same variety as the original cherry shrimp, but after later improvement and purification, they become different shrimps.

Glazed shrimp and cherry shrimp can be raised together. Their body shapes are similar, and their body lengths are about 2-3 cm in adulthood. Moreover, their distribution range is similar, and they are all distributed in Taiwan. In addition, they have the same requirements for water temperature and water quality. Although they like warm environment, they can't live in too high water temperature. In addition, their personalities are mild and they will not take the initiative to attack their peers.

Although they can be raised together, breeders should try not to cross them, which will affect the purity of their varieties, and excessive reproduction will lead to genetic degradation of their offspring.
