Overview:
Cherry shrimp are one of the most popular invertebrates in the hobby. Peaceful addition for tanks with appropriately sized inhabitants. Most shrimp are imported from overseas and often don't fare well due to the stress of transport. These are super easy to breed and we were able to raise enough to sell.

Setup Considerations:
With Neocaridina shrimp tank size is less important than stable parameters; therefore, they are more likely to thrive in a mature, well seasoned tank. As benthic grazers, they benefit from plentiful surface areas in the form of hardscape and/or plants.

Due to their small size and peaceful nature, tankmates must be carefully chosen. Many aquarists are successful at keeping them with small, peaceful fish, but babies and freshly molted adults are always at risk of predation.

Diet: Omnivore
Neocaridina shrimp continuously graze on biofilm, algae, and organic matter. They readily feed on algae wafers, zucchini, flakes, pellets, and most other sinking aquarium fare.
