About this item
Looking for an affordable and entertaining way to start your shrimp tank adventure? Don't limit yourself to just red cherry shrimp. Our Quirky Shrimp Pack is here to add some fun to your tank!
This collection features a mix of shrimp that have been selected from our neocaridina breeding tanks. While they may not meet our precise breeding color standards, they are completely healthy.
Expect a delightful surprise in terms of size and appearance. Shrimp sizes will range from 1/4 to 1/2 inch long, including full-grown adults. Their colors and patterns might vary from wild types to speckled or rilli patterns, and you might even encounter medium to near high-quality variations.
This assortment is perfect for beginners looking to dip their toes into shrimp keeping without breaking the bank. It's also a great opportunity for experienced shrimp keepers to test their tank's water conditions before introducing more valuable shrimp. So, why not add a touch of quirkiness to your tank and see where these charming shrimp take you?

Beautiful addition to my reef!
The fish arrived in perfect condition. Packaging was triple insulated with heat packs. Acclimation was smooth and it was eating frozen mysis within 2 hours of introduction. AquaEditorial never disappoints.
Great value for the price
Exactly as described. Fast shipping and very well packed.
Good but picky eater
Beautiful specimen, arrived healthy. Takes a while to adjust to new food but eventually started eating pellets. Great addition to my South American cichlid tank.
FAQs
What temperature should I keep the tank at for this fish?
Great question! We recommend maintaining a water temperature of 82–86°F (28–30°C). Discus are tropical fish and thrive in warm, stable water conditions. A reliable heater with a thermostat is essential.
Can I keep this with other fish in a community tank?
Yes! Discus are peaceful and social. They do best with calm tank mates like Cardinal Tetras, Rummy Nose Tetras, and Corydoras Catfish. Avoid aggressive or fast-moving fish that may stress them.
What size tank do I need for a small group?
We recommend a minimum of 55 gallons for a small group of discus. They need spacious aquariums with open swimming areas, live plants, driftwood, and gentle filtration.
What should I feed them?
Discus are omnivores and benefit from a varied diet. We recommend high-quality discus pellets, frozen bloodworms, brine shrimp, and beef heart mixes. A varied diet helps maintain vibrant coloration.
Do you guarantee live arrival?
Absolutely! All live fish are shipped with our 100% Live Arrival Guarantee. If there are any issues upon delivery, contact us within 2 hours with photos and we'll make it right.
