Yellow Neocaridina Shrimp

Yellow Neocaridina Shrimp (Neocaridina davidi var. “Yellow”): The Yellow Neocaridina shrimp, often referred to simply as “Yellow Shrimp,” is a vibrant and attractive freshwater dwarf shrimp variety. They belong to the Neocaridina davidi species, and their bright yellow coloration is a result of selective breeding.

Yellow Neocaridina shrimp are hardy and relatively easy to care for, making them a popular choice for both beginner and experienced shrimp keepers. They thrive in well-maintained freshwater aquariums with stable water parameters. Ideally, the water temperature should be kept between 68°F to 78°F (20°C to 26°C) with a pH range of 6.5 to 7.5. These shrimp are adaptable and can do well in a range of water hardness levels.

They are generally peaceful and non-aggressive, making them suitable for community aquariums with other peaceful fish species. However, it’s essential to ensure that tank mates do not pose a threat to the shrimp, as some fish may consider them as a snack.
