Most species will readily breed in healthy, freshwater conditions. It is recommended to keep shrimp separate from other species to prevent cross-breeding that typically results in brown, muddled offspring. Freshwater aquatic shrimp make a great addition to an aquarium clean up crew and will spend time grazing on algae or biofilm found on plants, glass walls and more.</span></span><br style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1"><br style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1"><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1">These Neocaridina are tolerant to a fairly wide range of water parameters, making them excellent for pairing with other species. As long as the shrimp are acclimated properly to your chosen parameters and are not subjected to extreme changes in temperature or acidity, they are adaptable. They will tolerate soft or hard water. The ideal water parameters are 70°-85° F with 7 to 7.5 pH. However, as mentioned, you may keep them outside of these parameters as long as the shrimp are protected from extreme or frequent fluctuations. <br><br>Check out our guide on the different substrates that can help achieve ideal water parameters for these shrimp: </span><a style="font-size: 0.875rem;" href="https://buceplant.com/blogs/aquascaping-guides-and-tips/planted-shrimp-tank-what-is-the-best-substrate#:~:text=As%20they%20require%20softer%2C%20more,Nature%20Soil%2C%20and%20many%20more." title="best substrate for shrimp" data-mce-fragment="1" data-mce-href="https://buceplant.com/blogs/aquascaping-guides-and-tips/planted-shrimp-tank-what-is-the-best-substrate#:~:text=As%20they%20require%20softer%2C%20more,Nature%20Soil%2C%20and%20many%20more." target="_blank">Best Substrate for Shrimp</a><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1">.</span><br style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1"><br style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1"><strong style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1">Key Features &amp; Important Notes</strong><br style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1"> <ul> <li><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">Tank-raised specimen</span></li> <li><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">Bright, bold color and pattern</span></li> <li><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">Shrimp are excellent scavengers and will happily feed on biofilm, decaying plant matter, and algae</span></li> <li><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">To increase survival rates, please allow 2-3 business days after placing an order to properly prepare live animal shipments</span></li> </ul> <strong style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1">Recommended Water Parameters</strong><br style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1"><em style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1">Listed information should be treated as general guidelines only.

Females have slightly larger tails and display a “saddle” formation on the upper body, behind the head, where eggs are stored before fertilization. When female shrimp are “berried”, or have eggs ready for fertilization, the saddle shape will appear more prominent. Once the shrimp are fully-grown the males will be smaller than the females.</span><br style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1"><br style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1"><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1">Blue Rili Shrimp are eager breeders given comfortable water parameters and a sufficient food source. Once the shrimp reach maturity, and if there are males and females present, they should breed naturally and frequently. It is recommended to purchase 8-10 shrimp to ensure that there are enough male-female pairs for successful breeding.</span><br style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1"><br style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1"><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1">When female shrimp have eggs available for fertilization, they will molt and release pheromones that the male shrimp respond to with frenzy. Once the shrimp breed, the eggs will gestate for about 2 weeks. The shrimp fry will feed from the same food sources as adult shrimp and will molt frequently during their early life stages. Leave molted shells in the tank, as the shrimp fry will consume them for extra minerals like calcium that will help their growth.</span><br style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1"><br style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1"><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1">Keep in mind that if you are keeping shrimp with other species of fish, or possibly aggressive shrimp species, this may affect reproduction. If the shrimp feel threatened or don’t have places in your tank to hide they may not breed.</span><br style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1"><br style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1"><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;" data-mce-fragment="1">Check out our blog article to learn </span><a style="font-size: 0.875rem;" title="how to breed freshwater shrimp" href="https://buceplant.com/blogs/aquascaping-guides-and-tips/guide-how-to-breed-freshwater-shrimp" data-mce-fragment="1" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://buceplant.com/blogs/aquascaping-guides-and-tips/guide-how-to-breed-freshwater-shrimp">how to breed freshwater shrimp.</a><br> <ul></ul>
