Mid-grade Neo-acclimated Boa Caradina Shrimp
Description
Mid-grade Neo-acclimated Boa Caradina Shrimp! These beautiful, hardy "BOA" Caridina Shrimp have been living and breeding in Neocaradina parameters. Generally Caradina Shrimp prefer more acidic waters with a lower GH and KH, but these BOA Shrimp are thriving in more common parameters, associated with Neocaridina Shrimp. This means you will have an easier time acclimating them without needing to lower your tanks GH, KH or pH. BOA shrimp display a cape like pattern draping down their abdomen, with mesmerizing spots swirling their torso or "carapace". They can display metallic sheen and more colors as they age. Upon arrival, these sub-adults typically measure around half an inch (.5 inches), showcasing unique patterns that are further enhanced against dark substrates. Due to increased resilience during transit, we prioritize shipping juveniles over adults. Happy Shrimping!

Reviews
Pretty little thing! It arrived safe and sound and was drip acclimated to a tank that currently has four white amano in it. Saw him doing the rounds this morning. Going to need a few more now!
Package arrived damaged, outer plastic bag had water in it, the box was soaking wet and ripped open with the stuffing hanging out. the small bag that had the shrimp in it had barely any water and all but one shrimp survived.
All 11 were bright eyed and bushytailed right out of the box! Swimming like crazy in their travel bag just aching to be released! So after 30 minutes of acclimation, that's just what I did. Now they're lost somewhere amongst the java ferns and hornwort.
