{"product_id":"assorted-neocaridina-shrimp","title":"Assorted Neocaridina Shrimp","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOur assorted Neocaridina shrimp packages feature a vibrant mix of colors and patterns, selections are made at the time of order and cannot be customized. Individual color variants don't always breed true, so mixed-color packs may produce uniquely varied offspring. When different Neocaridina colors interbreed in the same tank, most babies emerge clear or brown rather than vividly colored. Selective breeding can establish new color lines, but requires patience and careful selection of the brightest specimens as future breeders to maintain vivid coloration. As shrimp grow, they molt frequently, especially after introduction to new environments, so provide mineral sources like cuttlebone, shells, or mineral balls to support exoskeleton regeneration. These small shrimp lack natural defenses against predation and should not be housed with fish large enough to consume them. Babies are particularly vulnerable and need abundant hiding places. With a lifespan of one to two years, they thrive best as colonies rather than individuals. We recommend keeping them in invertebrate-only tanks until at least one generation reaches adulthood, typically three months to a year before introducing any fish. All our Neocaridina shrimp are domestically bred at our facility, offering superior hardiness compared to imported stock. Domestically raised shrimp adapt more successfully to home aquariums. Size, color, and sex vary based on availability at order time. You may receive shrimplets, young adults, or anything in between.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Central Florida Cichlids","offers":[{"title":"12 Pack","offer_id":44571662155859,"sku":null,"price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"25 Pack","offer_id":44571662188627,"sku":null,"price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50 Pack","offer_id":44571662221395,"sku":null,"price":69.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 Pack","offer_id":44571662254163,"sku":null,"price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/6649\/9155\/files\/IMG_7920_88df71a6-cbf9-4346-aefa-93f25fcd3419.jpg?v=1778094597","url":"https:\/\/centralfloridacichlids.com\/products\/assorted-neocaridina-shrimp","provider":"Central Florida Cichlids","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
