Species Profile

Blue Jelly Shrimp

Neocaridina davidi

Why We Love This Shrimp

  • Electric color against dark substrate
  • Beginner-friendly, wide pH range
  • Natural algae and biofilm grazer
  • Peaceful community invertebrate
  • Breeds readily in stable water
  • Quarantined before every shipment

Blue Jelly Shrimp are a selectively bred Neocaridina davidi color morph known for light translucent blue coloration.

Like other Neocaridina, they do best in mature aquariums with stable water, abundant grazing surfaces, and gentle filtration.

Care Notes

Prioritize stability, a fully cycled aquarium, and abundant grazing surfaces. Ammonia and nitrite should remain at 0 ppm.

Feed lightly and let biofilm form naturally. Large sudden water-parameter changes are more dangerous than slightly imperfect but stable numbers.

Breeder Pack Details

The Faster Way to Build a Colony

The Breeder Pack is designed for hobbyists who want a head start on colony growth. More females means more reproductive capacity from day one — a deliberate ratio chosen to give your tank the best possible foundation.

Expert Advice
Razz Aquatics Recommendation

Use a mature 5-gallon or larger aquarium with a sponge filter, moss or other grazing surfaces, and stable source water. Avoid chasing exact numbers if your water is already suitable and consistent.

Common Questions

Blue Jelly Shrimp FAQ

What water do Blue Jelly Shrimp need?+
Stable, fully cycled freshwater is more important than chasing one exact number. A practical starting range is 65–80°F and pH 6.5–8.0.
Do Neocaridina need a sponge filter?+
A sponge filter is an excellent choice because it provides gentle biological filtration and does not pull shrimplets into an intake.
How are Blue Jelly Shrimp shipped?+
Shrimp ship Monday through Wednesday in insulated packaging with weather-appropriate protection and typically arrive within the selected delivery window.
What do Blue Jelly Shrimp eat?+
They graze biofilm and algae throughout the day. Supplement with quality shrimp foods and remove significant leftovers.
Will this color breed true?+
Selective lines can produce variation. Mixing different Neocaridina color lines may also produce less predictable offspring over generations.
Is there a live arrival guarantee?+
Yes. Every order is covered by our Live Arrival Guarantee. Photograph any DOA in the sealed bag on delivery day and submit a claim through the Start a Claim page.
Build the Perfect Shrimp Tank

Plants That Pair Perfectly

Live plants give shrimp constant grazing surfaces, sheltered hiding spots for shrimplets, and promote the natural biofilm growth shrimp feed on. Every plant is shrimp-safe and ships safely alongside livestock.

Adding plants is a great way to reach free 2-Day Shipping at $120+ while building a healthier tank.
