Blue Pearl Shrimp

Price is for 20 (twenty) Peewee shrimp with Priority Mail Shipping included. I will be shipping 4 extra FREE shrimp for a total of 24, PLUS a FREE starter portion of Subwassertang. These shrimp are small, just babies at about 1/4" or a bit more (3/16" to 3/8") but are big enough to ship safely. However they are too small to consider putting with fish.

The auction winner can add additional peewee shrimp at $1 each, no extra for shipping!

The size shown below are typical of what is shipped. Those had been in a catch container for a while and any color they may have had faded.

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 not have any color yet. I will not be trying to grade the shrimp as I catch them, it's scoop & ship.

I bought these 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. 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.
