Sunkist Shrimp

Sunkist Shrimp, scientifically known as Neocaridina davidi var. Sunkist, are a vibrant and popular freshwater shrimp species. They are known for their bright orange coloration, resembling the vibrant hue of a ripe citrus fruit.

Sunkist Shrimp exhibit a vivid orange coloration throughout their bodies. The intensity of the orange hue can vary, ranging from a light tangerine shade to a deep and rich orange. Their vibrant color adds a cheerful and eye-catching element to aquariums.

Sunkist 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.

Sunkist Shrimp are generally peaceful and can coexist with other peaceful fish and invertebrates that share similar water parameters. However, it’s important to consider their specific care requirements and tank conditions to ensure their well-being and coloration.

Sunkist Shrimp are considered hardy and relatively easy to care for, making them suitable for both beginner and experienced aquarists. They prefer stable water conditions with a slightly alkaline to neutral pH. Providing them with a well-planted tank, suitable hiding places, and a balanced diet will promote their overall health and vibrant coloration.
