| " Everything I have gotten from here is amazing! The Golden White Cloud Mountain minnows are sprightly and lovely, the low light plant bundle is growing nicely - very healthy! The wild-type neocardinas... swoon! Two are solid black and the rest are a beautiful mix of colors and spots. I adore Glass Grown Aquatics and HIGHLY recommend!" -Melissa |
The Wild Type Neocaridina Shrimp is very attractive in its own right. These Dwarf Shrimp usually has a semi-transparent hue, which can vary between red (cherry), yellow, blue, orange, green, maroon, dark brown, black, and white shades, sometimes accompanied by a light tan stripe along its back.
These varieties are resilient and sustainable, but wild form is the most durable.
These little guys are wonderful in the planted aquarium and will readily breed when ample food and shelter are available. They love to pick at algae and tiny microflora and grow about at least 3/4 to about an inch—females are bigger.
Average purchase size is 1/2 inch or so.
Dwarf Shrimp are best for peaceful community tanks with lots of tiny hiding spaces. You'll notice they will be a lot more active and display brighter coloring when they feel safe. Heavily plant your aquarium for best breeding!
- Shrimp are not great with nippy or carnivorous fish such as Angelfish, Cichlids, Loaches.
- Otocinclus, Corydoras, Plecos, Tetras, Guppies, smaller Rasboras, and Celestial Danios are all great tank mates!
