Description: Just like the gemstone name suggests, Green Jade Shrimp (Neocaridina davidi var. 'Green'), are beautiful, tough creatures that have a magnificent presence. They add such complexity yet are not complicated, making them perfect for a beginner in the hobby. Our shrimp have a deep green coloration, and some may have a yellow-green or blue-green. For best color saturation, we recommend using low light intensity against a dark background. We ship healthy Jade Green Shrimp that are approximately1/2-1 inch (1.3-2.5cm) or bigger in length.
Care: Excellent scavengers that feed on biofilm, algae and organic matter in an established aquarium. For newer aquariums, you can use Podvodoy Snowflake 2-3x daily. Friendly nature makes them awesome tankmates. Please be mindful to acclimate them to your new tank for several hours as blue tiger shrimp are extremely sensitive to polluted water.
