Green Jade Neocaridina Shrimp
These are my homebred Green Jade Neocaridina Shrimp!
In an effort to keep shrimp shipping as safe as possible, I am not currently listing shrimp for sale directly on the website. If you’re in an area with nighttime lows consistently above 50°F, email your zip code and which shrimp you want to info@dakuaquatics.com and I will check weather, shipping, and get back to you within 24 hours!
I only ship fully colored up juvies and sub-adult shrimp as they do much better in shipping and acclimating to your new tank in comparison to adult shrimp!
My Neocaridina breeding tank parameters are:
Temp 73 - 78 | PH 7.0 - 7.5 | TDS 250-300 | GH 8-12 | KH 3-5

They really are green! Buying these shrimp I was warned from other hobbyists about trying to purchase the green jades, since often instead of 'green' shrimp your sold low quality blues. And when I first opened up the package they did look more blue than green- but after a few hours of acclimating they colored up, and they really do look like what you see in the pictures. The shrimp you receive are tiny so it's hard to accurately gauge how they'll look as they grow, but even though the shrimp I got were of varying qualities, I'm not seeing any that didn't turn out as green jades. As a beginner is was great to have this color priced the same as the rest of the shrimp on this store, when on other online stores the green jades are sold as much more expensive than blues/cherries. Very happy to have these shrimp and they're doing great in my tank.
