Blue Cherry Shrimp, also known as Neocaridina davidi var. "Blue," is a delightful and colorful freshwater shrimp variety that has gained popularity in the aquarium hobby. These shrimp are characterized by their striking blue coloration, making them a favorite choice among aquarists looking to add a splash of vibrant color to their tanks.

Origin: Blue Cherry Shrimp are selectively bred from Neocaridina davidi shrimp and do not exist in the wild. They are the result of careful breeding to enhance their blue coloration.

Temperature: The ideal temperature range for Blue Cherry Shrimp is between 18°C to 24°C (64°F to 75°F).

Water Quality: They thrive in slightly acidic to neutral water conditions with a pH range of 6.5 to 7.5. Maintaining stable water parameters and good water quality is essential for their health.

Aquarium Size: Blue Cherry Shrimp are small and can thrive in nano aquariums of 10 liters or more. They are social and should be kept in groups for a more natural and active display.

Feeding: These shrimp are omnivorous and feed on a variety of foods. They graze on biofilm, algae, and detritus in the aquarium. Additionally, they can be supplemented with high-quality shrimp-specific pellets, blanched vegetables like spinach or zucchini, and occasional treats like brine shrimp or bloodworms.

Lifespan: With proper care, Blue Cherry Shrimp can live for about 1 to 2 years.

Behavior and Personality: Blue Cherry Shrimp are peaceful and can be kept in community aquariums with other dwarf shrimp species. They are known for their constant activity as they forage for food and explore their environment. Their bright blue coloration adds a captivating and vibrant presence to aquariums, making them a popular choice for aquascaping enthusiasts.

These shrimp are relatively easy to care for and are an excellent choice for aquarists of all experience levels looking to enhance the aesthetics of their tanks.

Decorative Sand - Silver (650ml)

The postage cost was ridiculous, €9 to post within Ireland is scandalous. However, the sand itself was decent

Skimmia Japonica 'Passion' (3 Litre)
Efficient delivery

I purchased a pair of Simmia Japonica Passion from Newlands last month.
They were delivered within three days, so had them in time for the weekend. They were very well packaged which kept them safe during transit. They were a really healthy pair and are now thriving in the garden.

Venezuelan Suntiger Tarantula | Psalmopoeus irminia (S)
I loved the Venezuelan Suntiger Tarantula, Psalmopoeus irminia,

I loved the Venezuelan Suntiger Tarantula, Psalmopoeus irminia, that I bought from your website. I received excellent service at the store when I went to pick it up, and the employee working that day made herself available in case I had any questions. The tarantula was very healthy and beautiful. I’m very happy when I find well-cared-for animals with proper attention. Excellent.

Perfect, I got a new fish recently but within a couple of days I noticed white spots forming all over him. I found this treatment for such a reasonable price and decided to order it. It solved the problem in 3 days and now my fish is so happy.
