## Description

Crystal Red Shrimp (Caridina cantonensis) are widely regarded as one of the most beautiful dwarf shrimp types available. They are notorious for their striking red and white colors that makes them stand out magnificently against any aquarium backgrounds or substrate. Until recently, these colorful shrimp have been very rare and difficult for aquarists to find, and we are thrilled for the opportunity to offer them for sale to our customers! These shrimp are A-S grade, meaning the intense coloration covers most or all of the body. Higher grades of Crystal Red Shrimp actually have more white coverage and less red coverage, and can be very difficult to keep as they are much more sensitive than these. Thus, A- S grade Crystal Red Shrimp are the best starting point for beginners to keeping this unique type of shrimp. Make sure to use a special shrimp net with fine netting when scooping any dwarf shrimp out of your tank, as their legs can get caught and injured by a regular fishnet! We also have the same type of shrimp in black and white called Crystal Black Shrimp. They will breed with these and produce either black/white or red/white offspring only. Both Crystal Red and Crystal Black Shrimp are more difficult to raise than other dwarf shrimp species, so we recommend sticking VERY closely to the recommended tank parameters, especially avoiding hard water. All dwarf shrimp prefer to live in tanks with live aquatic plants (such as java moss, green cabomba, etc.). Dwarf shrimp like the cover that plants provide, they love to graze on the plants, and the plants help keep the water clear.CARE GUIDELINES:- Temperature: 70° - 78° F (21° - 26° C) - pH: 6.2 - 6.8 - KH: 0 - 10 dKH - Minimum tank size: 2 gallons - Average adult size: 1 - 1.5 inches (2.5 - 3.8 cm) - Average purchase size: 1/8 - 1/2 inch (.32 - 1.3 cm)

## Features

- A-S grade Crystal Red Shrimp feature striking red and white colors and look especially great against dark substrate or aquatic plants.
- Needs water with 7.2 ph or lower, and they do best in reverse osmosis water (aka RO water). A sponge filter is preferred over a cartridge filter for dwarf shrimp tanks.
- Dwarf shrimp are very small and are not safe in aquariums with medium to large-sized fish. Please research dwarf shrimp before purchasing to ensure compatibility with your tank's inhabitants.
- Will breed and carry eggs without special equipment in most customer tanks! Breeding instructions are the same as Red Cherry Shrimp.
- Each Aquatic Arts brand order ships with a 100% live arrival guarantee and free email support! We thoroughly check all shrimp before shipping to ensure they arrive healthy.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful Shrimp!
*by C***A on July 3, 2020*

Gorgeous little guys! Shipped super quick, and arrived healthy and active. Really nice color on these guys. Will definitely purchase from this seller again!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars
*by A***L on January 8, 2016*

Very beautiful little shrimp! It'll look even prettier when it is full grown.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good coloring, lively & healthy. Also, most of their names were Phillip
*by R***G on March 24, 2020*

I’ve named three of them Phillip. Pretty sure Phillip 2 is a girl, but I’ve gone too far to turn back now. Either way, they’re alive, weeks later. Came that way, which was helpful. They acclimated well (just do it slow), are lively & healthy. Packaging was good, no disease or any of that nonsense. They’re growing quickly & haven't started a turf war with my other shrimp. That’s probably because shrimp don’t do that. Either way they’re entertaining.
