BREEDER PACK - We created the breeder packs to ensure that hobbyists will have the ideal ratio to start a breeding colony. The Breeder pack will consist of 7 female and 3 male shrimp. For a total of 10 shrimp.
The Carbon Rili Neocaridina Shrimp, scientifically known as Neocaridina davidi var. "Carbon Rili," is a remarkable variety that showcases a captivating combination of translucent and opaque black, blue and white patterns. With their unique coloration, these shrimp add a touch of elegance and intrigue to any aquarium.
Our Carbon Rili Neocaridina Shrimp are perfect for adding contrast and visual interest to your aquatic setup. Their small size and peaceful demeanor make them compatible with a wide range of tankmates, including non-aggressive fish and other invertebrates.
Beyond their stunning looks, Carbon Rili Shrimp offer practical benefits for aquarium enthusiasts. They are voracious algae eaters, helping to maintain a clean and balanced ecosystem by consuming unwanted algae growth. Additionally, they diligently scavenge for leftover food and organic debris, contributing to the overall cleanliness of your tank.
Caring for Carbon Rili Shrimp is relatively easy, making them suitable for aquarists of all skill levels. They are adaptable to various water parameters and display remarkable breeding potential. Observing their molting phases and color changes throughout their life cycle can be a fascinating and rewarding experience.
At Shrimp Up Aquatics, we prioritize the health and well-being of our livestock. When you purchase our Carbon Rili Shrimp, you can trust that you will receive healthy specimens hand-picked by our experienced team. We follow strict quality control measures to ensure the shrimp you receive are in optimal condition.

Greatest experience and showed up 3 days early. Will be ordering again soon.
Got a batch of carbon rilis + blue dreams and velvets. Amazing patterns and color, and one even arrived berried! Two of the rilis have yellow eyes. All acclimated fine and are doing great in the tank :)
I ended up missing one but all arrived alive and 3 were berried
2 arrived deceased…. Hoping the rest make it! Beautiful shrimp tho!! Wish I would have had a few extra to make up for the loss.. but hopefully the rest do well! I got 2 orders in today! Only 2 out of 20 were deceased!
Great
Shrimpies arrived safe and sound. I love the look of the carbon rillies and will make it a point to get more at some point.
just wanted to add another post to show the crazy colors on this one!
I am new to the hobby of shrimp keeping and to say the least I am not an elitist. That being said this is the fourth order from the fourth breeder I have placed. This experience showed me the difference between a good source, and an excellent source. The shrimp arrived faster than expected. No DOA, and a mixed pack for plebs like me that still felt curated and high quality. The ages spanned from a berried female down to a quarter inch shrimplet. The shrimp adapted well after a good drip and I have been glued to their tank since. The amount of glee I am finding in this shipment of shrimp is unprecedented You won a customer for life.
Second time ordering shrimp are always healthy and colorful.
Beautiful shrimp! Love them. Only 2 DOA. All was great! Until I lost 4 more the next few days… my Ammonia, Nitrate, and Nitrite levels were perfect. I’m not sure what happened .. might have been stress during shipping, they never really adjusted? I’m not sure but I have about 6/7 shrimp out of the 10/13 they shipped.
They’re doing great! Extra were sent in case of DOAs and I ended up getting the exact amount I paid for 👍 overall great/fast shipping!
These are so fun!! The black splotches definitely vary and when they're small I had almost mistaken some of them for blue rilis due to their colouring but they're happy and healthy and growing fast! One of them is almost entirely clear except for a little black tail fin so I wouldn't expect the highest pigment ratios but I love them lots all the same <3
Great company to deal with. We had a few DOA because of weather, but they quickly responded and made things right. I’ll definitely be purchasing more
Very healthy looking and very cool patterns.
Had to make an update to my original review once I discovered an amazing looking shrimp that I completely missed during the initial acclimation period (lights off). Its color pattern is very reminiscent of a yellow jacket, but with very dark green accents as well, which together acts as great camouflage! I am quite new to this hobby so maybe it's more common than I realize, but either way it's quite the looker, that's for sure.
From what I can tell right now, only have 2 DOA with 12+ survivors, which is fantastic. I will certainly do business again here in the future.
Great shrimp. They arrived healthy and settled in their new home nicely.
I’ve had a great experience ordering shrimp from here! All the shrimp I received have very beautiful colors :) I’ll definitely order from here again!
These are beautiful shrimp! It's been great watching them make themselves at home
I ordered 5 and got 6! All came alive and ready to start cleaning! Great communication the entire time!
They weren't joking when they said breeder pack... had several come im very berried... Anyways, I ordered 10 and received 19. None of them died. They acclimated perfectly and are still going strong after several days now. Overall, the best experience I've had with a shrimp dealer. Only slight downsides: 1. PH in their water was pretty high, about 8.5. So I did have to drip acclimate for a couple hours. 2. No heaters in bag, so be sure to expedite shipping if it's too cold.
The shrimp where all alive they took 3 day to deliver after they where shipped and I also got extra and I’m so happy with all my shrimp
Beautiful healthy shrimp arrived quickly and safely. They're already settling happily into their tank.
Beautiful shrimp! Ordered 1 Carbon Rili, 1 Chocolate, 1 Blue Velvet, 1 Blue Dream, 1 Red Rili, and 1 Orange Sunkist… and ended up with 14 shrimp!! Two of which are berried! Absolutely insane and amazing surprise! All the shrimp arrived alive and well, most are very colorful. Blue Dream shrimp are pale but that is to be expected after a stressful journey in a dark box. They are all very active and I am beyond excited to introduce them to their new tank mates once acclimation is finished. Very satisfied!
This was my first time purchasing live animals online and it went so smoothly! They were shipped out and arrived safely! I even got so many extra babies! I didn't get 2 of the types I wanted but the extra babies made me soooo happy. They are all healthy and thriving! I will definitely be buying more in the future !
This was the 2nd time ordering and both time they all came in alive with a few extra. We have already placed a 3rd order and can't what for them to come in. Thanks
Some of the most truly stunning shrimp I have ever seen. All came alive and well and one was even with eggs!
Quickly shipped and arrived with sooo many healthy babies! This is my second order from ShrimpUp and can’t wait to order more.
Everyone arrived alive and healthy! They were very active and curious as soon as I took them out of the box, and they seemed to love their new home. I bought 5 Carbon Rili and 5 Blue Dream, and all survived not only shipping, but also their first night, so I am very pleased. At least one of them has since died, but the rest appear to be thriving, so I can only assume that one was already old. The tank has been cycled for a long while now and was stable before I added them in, but I’ll be keeping an eye on my parameters and the other shrimp anyway, just in case. All in all, I’m very happy and will absolutely be ordering again in the future, and referring my friends here!
Always been good never had any doe the last few orders and this time around had two little babies that survived the whole process into my tank. This company is my favorite from the few ive order from
great looking
All of my shrimp arrived alive and in a timely fashion with a few extra! Now they’re drip acclimating and will be in their new home soon! Thank you!
Alive and healthy!
great looking shrimp
Ordered three. All arrived alive. Had 2 male and a pregnant female
My 1st order was great! But then I ordered again. This time the 5 pack on July 30th and I am still without that order! Sent an email and still no responses?
My carbon rili shrimp arrived cute happy and healthy. And my orange rili order came with the wrong shrimp and this company is resending them at no cost. Love shrimp up aquatics!
They were very active, beautiful and showed up nicely in my aquarium. My gravel is a dark blue so they didn't stand out but when I saw them, they looked pretty on it. I really liked the spots they had and their color pattern.
beautiful color and very healthy!
