Special requirements
Copper Sensitivity
Like all invertebrates, Blue Carbon Shrimp are highly sensitive to copper. Copper-based medications should never be used in their aquarium.
Breeding Filtration
If breeding, a sponge filter is essential to prevent the miniature young from being drawn into the filtration system.
Acclimation
Requires stable water parameters and high water quality to thrive as an effective member of the cleanup crew.
