Blue Steel Shrimp

Blue Steel Shrimp are a type of Caridina that are renowned for their striking blue coloration and unique steel-like sheen. Blue Steel Shrimp bring a touch of elegance to any freshwater aquarium, with their vibrant hues standing out beautifully against plants and decorations. Since Blue Steel Shrimp are a Caridina, they are slightly more sensitive to water conditions, making them a rewarding choice for shrimp keepers who enjoy a bit of a challenge. Blue Steel Shrimp thrive in well-maintained tanks with stable water parameters and make great companions for peaceful fish and other shrimp species.

Blue Steel Shrimp are natural algae eaters, helping to keep your aquarium clean and balanced. Their active and peaceful nature adds life to your tank without causing any disruption to other inhabitants. As Blue Steel Shrimp forage and explore their environment, they contribute to the overall health and vibrancy of your aquatic ecosystem.
