Deep black morph of neocaridina. Stunning against light coloured substrate or bright green plants. Same easy care as cherry shrimp. Very popular in planted tanks for the dramatic colour contrast.

Shrimp pellets, blanched vegetables, algae wafers. Identical diet to cherry shrimp.
๐ฃBreeding
Same as cherry shrimp. Breeds readily in stable water conditions without any special requirements.
