Caradina Shrimp: Unique and Stunning Freshwater Shrimp

Caradina Shrimp, closely related to Cherry Shrimp, are an excellent choice for aquarists looking to add unique and beautiful invertebrates to their tanks. However, these shrimp thrive in different water conditions and require a bit more care.

Key Features of Caradina Shrimp:

• Cool Water Preference: Caradina Shrimp require cooler water temperatures, no higher than 24°C, making them ideal for temperate or cooler aquarium setups.
• Optimal pH Level: They thrive best in water with a pH around 6.5. While they can survive in neutral pH (7.0), breeding success may be reduced.
• Breeding Conditions: For successful breeding, it is best to keep these shrimp in a dedicated tank without fish, as fish may predate on shrimp larvae.
