20 Red Cherry Shrimp

Excellent! A good mix of male & females. They were split between 2 dedicated tanks...1 20 gallon long with panda loaches and 1 20 gallon long with otocinclus. The panda loach tank is well seasoned & the shrimp transitioned well. (Diet: Glas Garten Bacter AE & Repashy Soilent Green, sparingly...a toothpick dip daily from both foods) The otocinclus tank is a recent setup & the shrimp transitioned well. (Diet: Tetra Pleco Wafers added when needed) They were a little dull in color due to stress but have colored up nicely. All are healthy except one was DOA. I have hard water & drip acclimated for about an hour. I do not chase anything...ph, etc. It's more detrimental to chase than let things be. I do not test water for anything, an automatic 10% water change weekly or biweekly. Both tanks are planted & kept at sub-tropical temps. This is my second round of tank bred, not second order, but second round & I have much better luck with tank bred. I'm thinking 1st group died out due to too much inbreeding. Overall, pretty happy with the purchase & will order more in the future. Maybe a little bit more info than needed but wanted to help those that think it's not possible to keep these little guys happy & healthy. Thank you APF! :)

Cherry Shrimp

Very nice Shrimp. All healthy and alive living the #shrimplife

Great little guys!

I ordered 15 shrimp (5 cherries, 5 yellow, and 5 blue), and they all arrived safe and sound. The staff also was great at communicating with me about delays in the shipment due to causes out of their control. I'm definitely buying from them again.

I really like the Cherry Shrimp! They are Great little Gabage cleaners and very active. Just make sure to put them where you want them, because you'll NEVER net them, again!

Red Cherry Shrimp

Ordered 20, arrived in 2 days from ordering. All very alive and larger than I expected which is great. A week later and they are all still going strong.
