The Bumble Bee Shrimp are active and peaceful in my 15-gallon tank. They don’t bother the corals and are easy to care for. Great addition to a reef setup.
Keith Abraham –
I’ve had these shrimp for three months now. They’re hardy and stay calm around other fish. The only thing is they need a stable temperature and good water quality.

Perfect for intermediate reef keepers. They’re colorful and don’t cause any issues with the tank’s ecosystem. I’m happy with the purchase.
