One of our house favorites! Similar to Fire Red, Bloody Mary Neocaridina shrimp boast a radiant blood red that glows hauntingly with the light! These beautiful, hardy shrimp thrive in a wider range of parameters vs. their Caridina cousins. Their glowing red coloration pops on most substrates and backgrounds.

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 sand 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!
