YELLOW GOLDENBACK NEOCARIDINA SHRIMP
Always a beautiful addition to your tank! Their gorgeous golden yellow color pops on just about any substrate. These will typically be shipped as sub-adults, measuring around half an inch (.5 inches). We prioritize sending more juveniles, known for their resilience on their journey to your home.
Yellow Goldenbacks, a variety of Neocaridina Davidi, have become popular in the aquarium hobby due to their striking yellow/gold coloration. These shrimp are selectively bred for their vibrant yellow base color, and the shining gold sliver draping their backs. Selective breeding involves choosing individuals with desired traits and breeding them to enhance/stabilize the characteristics over successive generations.
We recommend using remineralized RO/DI water for your invertebrate friends. They will be much healthier and happier resulting healthy and happy babies!
Tank Parameters:
- pH: 7.0 to 7.6
- KH: 7 to 15
- GH: 2 to 8
- TDS: 180 to 400
- Temperature: 68 to 74
Tank Equipment:
- Substrate: White substrate (non buffering), lava rocks (great at retaining biological filter and will buffer pH to their liking).
- Water: RO/DI Water remineralized with Brightwell Aquatics NeoTiger KH+/GH+
They do well with peaceful smaller fish, but will thrive on their own. Babies will have a higher survival rate if fish/larger predators aren’t present.
Drip acclimating shrimp is very important prior to new shrimp entering your aquarium!
