Description
Description
Red Fire Shrimp, also known as Neocaridina davidi var. red or Cherry Shrimp, is a popular freshwater shrimp species in the aquarium hobby. Here are some details about the optimal conditions for keeping Red Fire Shrimp:
-
Temperature: Red Fire Shrimp thrive in a stable and moderate temperature range. Ideally, the water temperature should be maintained between 70°F and 78°F (21°C to 26°C). Fluctuations in temperature should be minimized as they can stress the shrimp and compromise their health.
-
Minimum Tank Size: Red Fire Shrimp are relatively small and non-aggressive, making them suitable for smaller aquariums. However, it is recommended to provide them with sufficient space to ensure a stable and healthy environment. A tank size of at least 5 gallons (19 liters) is considered appropriate for a small group of Red Fire Shrimp.
These shrimps are generally easy to care for and are known for their vibrant red coloration, making them a popular choice for aquarists, especially those with limited space. They are omnivorous and will readily feed on algae, biofilm, and prepared foods designed for shrimp. It's important to maintain good water quality, provide adequate hiding places, and ensure a well-balanced diet to promote their overall health and vibrant coloration.
