Green Jelly Shrimp (Neocaridina davidi)

Green Jelly Shrimp (Neocaridina davidi) are a rare and eye-catching freshwater shrimp variety prized for their beautiful translucent green coloration.

Important Green Jelly Shrimp are social animals and should always be kept in groups. We recommend starting with at least 10 shrimp to encourage natural behavior and establish a healthy breeding colony.
Images are for reference only. As these are living animals, individual shrimp may vary slightly in coloration and pattern.
Aquascaper's Tip Green Jelly Shrimp look especially striking against dark substrates and natural wood. Dense mosses, Bucephalandra, and other epiphytes provide excellent grazing surfaces while helping young shrimp find shelter as they grow.
