These are freshwater shrimp and can live in almost any freshwater aquarium.
They are very popular for planted tanks and community tanks, and many people use them in large aquariums for waste management and algae control.
We generally ship young adult shrimp that are already of breeding age.
Red Rili Shrimp belong to the same species as Sakura Red Cherry Shrimp (Neocaridina davidi), so their care requirements are essentially the same.
All Red Rili Shrimp are extremely adaptable creatures that can live in almost any freshwater aquarium.
Our shrimp ship out as breeding age young adults that are about 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch in length.
Some of the younger shrimp have not reached their full potential yet and will become brighter in color as long as they are comfortable in the tank.
Lower intensity lighting and dark substrate also helps them achieve the brightest coloration.
