Red Cull Shrimp (Neocaridina davidi var. red) make gorgeous and functional additions to any peaceful freshwater aquarium. Its brilliant red coloration adds a beautiful ornamental quality while its purposeful pursuit for algae and organic debris makes the Red Cull Shrimp an invaluable aquarium cleanup crew.
The Red Cull Shrimp have gained popularity thanks to their large appetite for all kinds of freshwater algae. These highly adaptable shrimp do well in any freshwater aquarium with good filtration and water quality. However, Red Cull Shrimp will thrive in planted aquariums where food and shelter are abundant. Once established in their new home, these active live freshwater shrimps are predominantly red in color with interludes of white. Keep in mind that new arrivals demonstrate varying degrees of “redness.” They are often clear in appearance until they have properly acclimated and adjusted to their new environment.
