Black shrimps / Jet Black shrimps

Black Shrimps, often called Black Rose or Black Sakura Shrimps, are a selectively bred variant of Neocaridina davidi. They’re admired for their jet-black or dark chocolate coloration, which adds depth and contrast to planted or aquascaped tanks.

Key Features & Benefits

• Striking Appearance: Their rich black tone stands out beautifully against green plants and light substrates.

• Hardy & Beginner-Friendly: Tolerant of a wide range of water conditions, making them ideal for newcomers to shrimp keeping.

• Natural Tank Cleaners: Constantly graze on algae, biofilm, and leftover food, helping maintain a balanced aquarium ecosystem.

• Peaceful Nature: Perfect for community tanks with small, non-aggressive fish or other shrimp species.

• Active Breeders: Under stable conditions, they reproduce easily, letting you grow a self-sustaining colony.

Care Tips

• Maintain clean, stable water parameters (pH 6.5–7.5, temperature 22–28°C).

• Provide plenty of hiding spaces with moss, driftwood, or plants.

• Avoid mixing with other Neocaridina color varieties to prevent color dilution in offspring.

• Feed a balanced diet of algae wafers, shrimp pellets, and blanched veggies to enhance health and coloration.
