Black Galaxy Snowflake Shrimp
The Black Galaxy Snowflake Shrimp are striking Caridina variety renowned for its deep black body adorned with shimmering white speckles resembling snowflakes and scattered galaxy-like spots. This contrast creates a bold and elegant appearance, making the Black Galaxy Snowflake Shrimp a favorite among advanced shrimp enthusiasts. The shrimp’s “galaxy” pattern combined with its snowflake-like markings is a result of careful selective breeding.
A proper diet is essential to maintain their health and vivid coloration. They require high-quality shrimp-specific food enriched with minerals, as well as occasional blanched vegetables and protein-based supplements. Consistent water changes and a reliable filtration system are crucial to prevent fluctuations in water quality, as these shrimp are highly sensitive to changes. Black Galaxy Snowflake Shrimp are best kept in species-only tanks or with other peaceful Caridina varieties to reduce stress. Their sensitivity and specific care needs make them best suited for experienced keepers.
These shrimp thrive in stable, soft, slightly acidic water conditions. A heavily planted tank with moss, leaf litter, and a soft substrate creates the optimal environment for these shrimp, promoting biofilm growth and offering natural hiding spots.
Please acclimate new shrimps before you put them in the new tank. Wait until the TDS of your tank and the water they come with matched.
