Neocaridina shrimp, also known as Neocaridina davidi, are hardy freshwater shrimp ideal for home aquariums. They prefer slightly alkaline to neutral water with a pH of 6.5 to 8.0 and a temperature range of 72-78°F (22-26°C). These shrimp do well in well-planted tanks with hiding spots and surfaces for grazing, such as live plants, mosses, and driftwood. They thrive on a varied diet of algae wafers, shrimp pellets, and blanched vegetables, which helps maintain their vibrant colors and health.
