Cherry Shrimp - Skittles, Low grade - Neocaridina Davidi

A colourful mix from my breeding colonies, you will get a random selection of colours including reds, oranges, yellows, blues, and wild-type. These are lower grade shrimp with lighter or less consistent colour, but they are just as healthy and active as my higher grade stock. A great way to start a colony or add a splash of colour to your tank without spending a fortune.

Cherry shrimp are one of the easiest and most rewarding shrimp to keep. They breed readily in freshwater, graze on biofilm and algae to help keep your tank clean, and they are peaceful with any tankmate that will not eat them.
