The Red Rili Shrimp are stunning and very active in the tank. I added them to my planted tank with java fern and driftwood. They quickly started foraging and the color pattern is very eye-catching. Easy to care for and don’t require much feeding.

I’ve had these shrimp for three months now. They’re calm and don’t bother other fish. The translucent body with red head and tail makes them stand out. I keep them in a 10-gallon tank with plenty of hiding spots.

Great addition to my freshwater setup. The shrimp are healthy and active. I feed them once every two days with algae wafers. They seem to enjoy the plant life and stay in the back corners where there’s more cover.
