Blue Bee Shrimp | Caridina sp. "Blue Bee"
All Photos and Information by gabeszone:
I just wanted to share some pictures of my Blue Bee shrimp from China. I breed them in my 60x30x30cm tank. Filter Eheim 2213, with a PH of 6.5-6.8, and keep them in a temp of 74F. I have had some luck in breeding them.
The colors come in brown, purple, and blue. It is unknown if health or genetics is the cause of the brown coloration. These are wild-caught from freshwater streams in China.
More information forthcoming...
