PLEASE READ ENTIRE AUCTION & TERMS BEFORE BIDDING

Shipping to contiguous 48 states only, (CONUS, not AK, HI, or PR).


Blue Pearl Shrimp

Price is for SIXTEEN Shrimp with Priority Mail Shipping included. You will receive 5 juvenile to young adult shrimp, mixed sex, plus one BERRIED female. I will also include 10 peewees. These are small, just babies under 3/8", but are big enough to ship safely. My adult shrimp range in color from a medium blue to a pale icy blue. The shrimp shown below are typical of the adults. You will be shipped younger shrimp which may have less color, the peewees will not have any color yet. I will not be trying to grade the shrimp as I catch them, it's scoop & ship.

The auction winner has the opportunity to double the quantity, including the berried female, for only an additional $25 regardless, of the closing price of the auction and no increase in shipping!

I bought these last year from in this auction and this auction. The color of an individual shrimp does vary by mood, surroundings and temperature. They seem to look best on a dark substrate, lots of plants, steady water parameters with somewhat cool conditions. They will not look blue when you receive them and probably won't until they acclimate to their new tank. Full color will not be reached until they are mature adults. Occasionally a shrimp will be bright blue as a youngster but that is the exception. If this is unacceptable, you will not like my blue pearl shrimp (and probably not anyone else's either).

These are Neocaridina cf. zhangjiajiensis var. blue so cannot be kept with other Neocaridina (Red Cherry, Yellow, Snowball etc). Care is similar to Red Cherries but I find them to be more active and more aggressive. Aggressive shrimp? They fight over food which I have never seen any other Neocaridina do.
