Deep Blue Bolt - Taiwan Bee

You will receive one blue Taiwan bees from our high grade blue bolt tank. Every shrimp has a deep blue color, making them stand out in any aquarium. We sell all Taiwan Bee shrimp at about half an inch. The smaller they are, the easier it is to acclimate them to a new aquarium. The shrimp will reach breeding age within a month of receiving them.  

Blue Bolts are some of the most stunning aquarium shrimp in the hobby. Blue Bolts will range from white to solid blue in coloration. The blue bolts that we sell all have great coloration and are deep blue. Taiwan Bees were considered some of the hardest to keep and breed pet shrimp in the past. Between 2009 and 2014, hobbyists were able to stabilize the Taiwan bee shrimp line to have more stability. By adding in new genetic pools, the Taiwan bee shrimp is much easier to keep and breed in current days. For a hobbyist ready to take their hobby to the next level, these shrimp are a great place to start.

Mixing Taiwan Bees
