Sulawesi shrimp from Taiwan
The Sulawesi shrimp from Taiwan is a unique and fascinating addition to any freshwater aquarium, especially aquariums that are already home to Neocaridina shrimp. Originally from the vibrant rivers of Sulawesi, these shrimps are now carefully bred in Neocaridina ponds in Taiwan, demonstrating their hardiness and adaptability to different environmental conditions.
A special feature of Sulawesi shrimp is their ability to thrive in neutral pH waters, making them a perfect choice for aquarists looking for easy to care for, yet exceptional shrimp. These shrimp not only bring a fascinating biodiversity to your aquarium, but also promote a healthy ecosystem through their algae-eating properties.

Each Sulawesi shrimp undergoes a careful selection process to ensure that it enters your aquarium healthy and vibrant. Our commitment to the aquarium community and our pursuit of excellence ensures that you receive not just an animal, but a new friend for your aquarium.
