It is also important to note that some species of shrimp are best kept in tanks without fish because some fish prey on shrimp and other small invertebrates. If you can find a pairing that works well, however, you may be able to house shrimp and fish together in your tank. Just be sure to provide your shrimp with the food and water conditions they need to thrive and do your research ahead of time to determine what those conditions are.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #2b00ff;\"\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScientific Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Neocaridina davidi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFamily:\u003c\/strong\u003e Freshwater Shrimp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNatural origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Taiwan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin of this specimen:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tank born and raised by bioAquatix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGeneration filial:\u003c\/strong\u003e F1-F3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTank Temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24 °C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTank TSD:\u003c\/strong\u003e 180 to 250\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2b00ff;\"\u003eTank Parameters\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePh:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.5 to 8.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTDS:\u003c\/strong\u003e 180 to 250\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemp:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24°C \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2b00ff;\"\u003eTank Equipment\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFilter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sponge Filter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSubstrate: \u003c\/strong\u003eInert Substrate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater: \u003c\/strong\u003eDecolorinated Tap Water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelling size 0.8-1cm\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWe can’t ship Livestock and Live Plants to WA and TAS due to State Restrictions. Kindly check out our DOA and other policies before purchase!!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2b00ff;\"\u003e \u003cb\u003eWhat to Expect from Us\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEverything comes with a 100% live arrival guarantee!!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"p1\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #2b00ff;\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOther things to consider before placing an order:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCheck to see if your tank has enough space.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEnsure your tank is fully cycled.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEnsure your new livestock is compatible tank mates for any other fish you currently have (in terms of habitat, species, requirements, temperament, and size)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEnsure that your water parameters, habitat and temperature are suitable for the species you want to introduce.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDo not stock your tank too quickly, or suddenly a large influx of fish can unbalance your water parameters that will affect the water quality.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDo not feed your new fish for 24hrs.

This means setting up a shrimp tank setup that's perfect for them to live well. The tank size is very important. We suggest a tank of at least 10 gallons (38 litres) for a small group of shrimp. This size gives them enough room to swim and lets you add live aquarium plants and decorations for a planted aquarium look. The substrate is also key. Use fine gravel or sand mixed with nutrient-rich soil. This gives your shrimp a good base to burrow and graze. Make sure the substrate is clean and has no sharp edges to hurt your shrimp. Filtration is vital for keeping the water clean. A sponge filter or a hang-on-back filter with low flow is best. It won't stress your shrimp with strong currents. Live plants also help filter the water and give your shrimp places to hide. Remember to add important equipment like a heater and thermometer to keep the water at the right temperature. Good lighting is also needed for the live aquarium plants to grow. With the right shrimp tank setup, you'll have a thriving colony of Green Jade Cherry Shrimp in your aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEssential Water Parameters for Green Jade Cherry Shrimp\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeeping the right water conditions is key for our freshwater shrimp, like the Green Jade Cherry Shrimp.
