FAQs About Aquarium Shrimp

What do aquarium shrimp eat?

Aquarium shrimp eat algae, biofilm, detritus, and specialized shrimp pellets. They also enjoy blanched vegetables like zucchini and spinach, as well as protein-based foods for balanced nutrition.

How long do aquarium shrimp live?

Most freshwater shrimp live between 1 to 2 years, though some species, like Amano shrimp, can live up to 3 years with proper care.

Where to buy aquarium shrimp?

You can buy high-quality aquarium shrimp online at Shrimp Up Aquatics, local fish stores, or specialty aquarium shops.

Are aquarium shrimp easy to take care of?

Yes! Freshwater shrimp are low-maintenance, adaptable, and thrive in stable water conditions, making them great for beginners. You just need to make sure the tank is clean, and you’re good to go.

How many shrimp should I get for my aquarium?

Start with at least 10 shrimp for a healthy colony. Shrimp thrive in groups and breed better when kept together. Remember, they aren’t solitary creatures so you should always get a bunch.

What is the best shrimp for an aquarium?

Cherry Shrimp, Amano Shrimp, and Blue Velvet Shrimp are great for beginners due to their hardiness, easy care, and vibrant colors.

How many shrimp are in a 100-liter tank?

Depending on filtration, tank mates, and available food sources, you can keep around 50-100 shrimp in a 100-liter tank. However, if you have nanofish present, then reduce the amount of shrimp by half.
