Freshwater Inverts
Freshwater Invertebrates for Sale
Freshwater invertebrates — including dwarf shrimp, snails, and crayfish — are popular additions to planted aquariums and community tanks. On Light Fish you'll find a wide selection of freshwater inverts listed by hobbyists and breeders nationwide, including Neocaridina shrimp (cherry, blue dream, green jade), Caridina shrimp (crystal red, bee shrimp), mystery snails, ramshorn snails, and more.
All invertebrate orders on Light Fish are backed by a Live Arrival Guarantee. Shrimp and snails are packed with breather bags, heat or cold packs, and shipped in insulated boxes via priority or overnight carrier — weather along the route is monitored so shipments can be held if conditions pose a risk. Shrimp thrive in stable, well-cycled tanks; always acclimate new arrivals slowly using the drip method. Use the category links above to browse by specific type.
