I bought a small group of yellow cherry shrimp for my 10-gallon tank. They settled in quickly and have been active and colorful since. The water conditions were stable and they adapted well to the pH range I had. Very easy to care for and a great addition to my aquarium.

Got these shrimp for my first aquarium setup. They are vibrant yellow and seem to be healthy. I kept them in a mixed tank with other small fish and they didn’t seem to compete. They’ve been living well in both soft and hard water conditions.

The shrimp arrived fresh and were active upon arrival. I followed the care guide and maintained a stable pH. They’ve been breeding successfully and I now have a small colony. Very hardy and easy to maintain.
