Special requirements
Copper Sensitivity
Like all Neocaridina, they are highly sensitive to copper. Ensure all medications and fertilizers are confirmed to be shrimp-safe.
Safe Tank Mates
Do not house with loaches, puffers, or larger carnivores that will feed on invertebrates.
Breeding Safety
If breeding, keep them in a breeder aquarium with a sponge filter to maximize the survival of the miniature hatchlings.
