Red Rili Shrimp

Red Rili Shrimp, scientifically known as Neocaridina davidi var. “Red Rili”, are a captivating and popular freshwater shrimp species. They are known for their eye-catching red coloration and unique pattern variations

Red Rili Shrimp exhibit a vibrant red coloration on the tail and carapace that ranges from a deep, rich red to a bright and intense shade. What sets them apart is the presence of a clear or transparent body, creating a distinct pattern of red and clear areas on their bodies. The arrangement and intensity of the red and clear patches may vary among individuals, leading to different pattern variations.

Red Rili Shrimp are relatively small and typically grow to a size of around 1 to 1.5 inches (2.5 to 3.8 centimeters) when fully mature. Their compact size makes them suitable for various aquarium setups, including nano tanks and shrimp-specific aquariums.

Red Rili Shrimp are generally peaceful and can coexist with other peaceful fish and invertebrates that share similar water parameters. They are active and energetic, constantly foraging and exploring their surroundings. These shrimp contribute to the activity and liveliness of the aquarium.

Red Rili Shrimp are considered hardy and relatively easy to care for, making them suitable for both beginner and experienced aquarists. They thrive in well-maintained aquariums with stable water conditions. Providing them with a well-planted tank, suitable hiding places, and a balanced diet that includes algae-based foods will promote their overall health and vibrant coloration.
