• Safe with all plants
• Excellent scavenger

RECOMMENDED TANK PARAMETERS:

CARE GUIDELINES:

• Diet: Scavenger that feeds continually.  Requires very little feeding in a well-established aquarium containing algae, biofilm, or decaying plant matter. In less mature aquariums, high quality dry foods with high plant content can be fed multiple times daily. 
• Social behavior: Peaceful.  A small group can continually replenish and grow its population

Red Rili Shrimp feature a striking red and white coloration, with the white parts often appearing translucent.  They are very active and breed very quickly.  A colony of these shrimp works as a very effective cleaning crew for your aquarium, cleaning up algae and waste.  

These are freshwater shrimp and can live in almost any freshwater aquarium.  They are very popular for planted tanks and community tanks, and many people use them in large aquariums for waste management and algae control.  We generally ship young adult shrimp that are already of breeding age.
