Cherry Shrimp Yellow - Neocaridina davidi

The Yellow Cherry Shrimp (Neocaridina davidi) is a striking freshwater shrimp variety known for its bright yellow coloration. Hardy and easy to care for, this active invertebrate helps keep aquariums clean by feeding on algae and detritus. It thrives in well-maintained tanks with stable water conditions and is a prolific breeder, making it an excellent choice for both beginner and experienced shrimp keepers looking to add a splash of color to their setups.

Water Parameters:

Mischlings require stable water conditions, similar to other Caridina shrimp, with a pH between 5.8-6.5, KH 0-4, and TDS 100-150 ppm.

Substrate:

A buffered substrate is necessary to help maintain a stable pH level. 

Tank Size:

A 10-gallon (40 liters) or larger, fully cycled aquarium is recommended for stable water conditions. 

Tank Mates:

Mischlings are often kept in single-species tanks to prevent interbreeding with other shrimp species and to protect their delicate fry.
