The aquarium hobby is crazy aboutNeocaridinacherry shrimp and for good reason too. Not only are they excellent clean-up crew members that eat algae and leftover fish food, but they come in almost every color of the rainbow and are tiny enough to fit in a 2-gallon nano tank. Compared to other types of ornamental shrimp, they are pretty beginner-friendly and can handle a wide range of water parameters.
Finally, these adorable critters are very easy to breed and can be sold at local fish stores and aquarium societies.
Shrimp have a hard, outer structure called an exoskeleton and must regularly molt whenever they outgrow their previous skin. In order to make the new exoskeleton, they prefer water with pH levels of 6.58.5, GH of at least 6 (110 ppm), and KH of at least 2 (40 ppm). If you have soft water, make sure to add mineral supplements to prevent failed molts (sometimes called the white ring of death when a dead shrimp has a white band or gap behind its head).Crushed coralhelps to increase KH, whileWonder ShellandSeachem Equilibriumboosts GH. Feeding foods rich in calcium and other minerals also helps with healthy molting
Neocaridina davidi can easily live in temperatures between 60–82°F (16–28°C), so in most cases, you can put them in an unheated aquarium. However, they are most comfortable at 72–76°F (22–24°C), so if your room temperature is below that range and you want to maximize their reproduction, you may want to consider getting a heater. Temperature greatly affects their metabolism, meaning that (1) they grow faster but have shorter life spans at higher temperatures and (2) they live longer but breed less at lower temperatures.
