Blue Dream Cherry Shrimp

Description

Blue Cherry Shrimp are easy to care for as they can adapt to a wide range of water parameters, able to tolerate both soft and hard water. They are great fish tank cleaners and will eat any fish food leftovers. The aquarium should be fully cycled before introducing any shrimp. There should be no traces of Ammonia or Nitrite, with Nitrates should be kept under 25ppm. A weekly water change of 20% is recommended to keep the nitrate low. Feed only 2-3 times a week as overfeeding will cause shrimp death.
