    Description

    The Blue Bolt Shrimp is a stunning, high-grade Taiwan Bee shrimp prized for its glowing translucent body and brilliant electric-blue shading concentrated around the head and tail. As part of the Caridina genus, they require specific, stable water parameters with low pH and active buffering substrate to truly thrive and display their best coloration. Peaceful and meticulous, they spend their days grazing tirelessly on biofilm and microalgae across plants and driftwood.
