Product information
Everything you need to know
Blue Dream Shrimp are one of the most popular colour shrimp in the hobby, loved for their rich blue tones and constant activity. As a Neocaridina variety, they’re well suited to a wide range of freshwater aquariums and are especially at home in planted tanks where they can graze naturally on biofilm and soft algae. Blue Dream Shrimp are a fun addition to shrimp-only tanks, nano aquariums, or peaceful community tanks, and they’re a great way to add colour without adding extra bioload like larger fish.
They’re also a great “clean-up crew” style shrimp — not because they replace maintenance, but because they’re always picking through the tank and helping keep things tidy. For best results, provide plenty of hiding spots (moss, plants, shrimp tubes, rock piles) and keep water conditions stable.
Blue Dream Shrimp care tips (Neocaridina)
- Tank type: Freshwater, planted tanks are ideal
- Temperament: Peaceful (best with non-aggressive tank mates)
- Diet: Quality shrimp food + blanched veg + natural grazing (biofilm)
- Habitat: Provide moss/plants and hiding places, especially after moulting
- Stability matters: Avoid sudden parameter swings; drip acclimation is recommended
