Description

1 Live Freshwater Painted Fire Grade Red Cherry Shrimp Neocaridina by Shrimpbroco . Shrimpbroco Dwarf Shrimp are an exotic and colorful addition to your tropical freshwater aquarium! Like the Red Cherry Shrimp they breed quickly to help clean algae from your tank and keep waste from accumulating on the bottom. Shrimpbroco suggest these habitat friends: Amano Shrimp may share their habitat as well as Goldenback or Neon Yellow Shrimp, Bloody Mary Shrimp, Jade Green Shrimp, Jet Black Diamond Shrimp, Pale Blue Jelly Shrimp, Sunkist Orange Shrimp, Dream Blue Shrimp or the various Rili Shrimp. Of course, Shrimpbroco sells these variants via this website. Sulawesi Snails, Nerite Snails, Ramshorn Snails all make great tank mates as well; and they will help with the removal of algae to keep you water from acquiring that green tint. If you are wanting to breed shrimp we would suggest no fish as just about any fish will eat the smallest fry if they are hungry. You can introduce small fish like tetra with mouths too tiny to consume your larger shrimp. Alga only plecos would be an option also if you have to have fish and aren’t looking to maximize the offspring numbers. Providing grass and moss plants within your tank will help protect the fry against fish eating them. We keep a lot of crystalwort in our tanks as these dwarf shrimp love it and the young dwarf stay in it and feed and relax until they grow. These dwarf shrimp are easy to care for as they can survive a relatively wide temperature range: 66 to 86 F?We keep our tanks at 75 F, if you want to maximize breeding You may want to raise that to 78 after a week or so after acclimating your new pets.  If you choose to introduce fish, please monitor your ammonia levels daily as ammonia will kill these shrimp. Also water with any copper in it is a sure way to end them.
