Blue Dream Shrimp (Neocaridina davidi) – Tank Bred
Blue Dream Shrimp are a stunning freshwater dwarf shrimp, prized for their deep sapphire-blue colour and peaceful nature. Their striking appearance makes them a standout addition to planted aquariums, while their hardy temperament and straightforward care requirements make them suitable for both beginners and experienced shrimp keepers.
These active shrimp spend their day grazing on biofilm, algae and leftover food, helping to keep the aquarium clean while providing endless interest. They thrive in mature, well-established aquariums with plenty of plants, mosses and hiding places, and will breed readily when kept in stable water conditions.
Our Blue Dream Shrimp are healthy, tank-bred shrimp, carefully selected for their colour, health and quality before leaving Aquatic Bliss.
