Blue Shrimp
Blueberry Shrimp are a selectively bred color morph of Neocaridina shrimp, known for their soft blue-purple coloration that can vary with mood, age, and background. Like other Neocaridina, they are excellent algae grazers and thrive in well-established planted aquariums with stable parameters. These shrimp are peaceful and breed readily under the right conditions.
