Explore aquarium shrimp for sale in Singapore from aquarium shops, breeders and specialist sellers on FishyHub. Browse available freshwater shrimp varieties, colours, sizes and listings from multiple sellers in one place, and compare options before choosing the right shrimp for your aquarium. Aquarium shrimp are popular among planted-tank and nano-aquarium keepers because of their colour, behaviour and ability to graze on biofilm and leftover food. Different shrimp species can vary significantly in water requirements, breeding difficulty, adult size and temperament, so choosing the right type for your aquarium is important. Popular Aquarium Shrimp Varieties Cherry Shrimp Cherry Shrimp are among the most popular freshwater aquarium shrimp and are often recommended for hobbyists starting with shrimp keeping. They are generally hardy, adaptable and available in a range of selectively bred colours. Red Cherry Shrimp Red Cherry Shrimp are one of the best-known colour forms of Neocaridina. Colour quality can vary from lighter red grades to deeper, more opaque red lines. They are active grazers and can breed readily when kept in stable conditions. Blue Dream Shrimp Blue Dream Shrimp are selectively bred Neocaridina known for their blue coloration. Colour depth varies between breeding lines, and higher-quality specimens tend to show more consistent colour across the body. Crystal Red Shrimp Crystal Red Shrimp are Caridina shrimp known for their distinctive red and white banding. They are generally more sensitive to water parameters than Neocaridina and are better suited to aquarists who can maintain stable, appropriate conditions. Amano Shrimp Amano Shrimp are larger freshwater shrimp known for their strong grazing behaviour and usefulness in planted aquariums. They are commonly kept for algae control, although they do not reproduce easily in normal freshwater aquarium conditions because their larvae require different conditions to develop. Sulawesi Shrimp Sulawesi Shrimp are known for striking colours and patterns, but many species require more specialised water conditions than common Neocaridina or Caridina shrimp. They are best suited to aquarists prepared to maintain stable parameters appropriate to their natural habitat. Other Aquarium Shrimp Depending on seller availability, FishyHub listings may also include Yellow Shrimp, Orange Shrimp, Green Jade Shrimp, Black Rose Shrimp, Snowball Shrimp, Tiger Shrimp and other selectively bred varieties. Choosing Healthy Aquarium Shrimp When buying shrimp, look for active specimens with intact bodies and normal movement. Body Condition Healthy shrimp should have a complete body, intact legs and antennae, and no obvious physical damage. Activity Shrimp should generally be active and responsive, especially when grazing. Very inactive shrimp may be stressed, although activity can also vary depending on lighting, temperature and recent handling. Colour Colour varies significantly depending on species, grade, genetics, age and condition. Premium selectively bred shrimp may have more intense or uniform coloration than standard aquarium-grade specimens. Seller and Line Quality For hobbyists interested in breeding particular colours or patterns, breeder line and consistency may be more important than simply selecting the brightest individual shrimp. Shrimp Tank Setup Aquarium shrimp generally do best in stable, mature aquariums. A planted setup can work especially well because plants, wood, rocks and other surfaces provide grazing areas where biofilm develops. Suitable features may include: Live plants Mosses Driftwood Smooth rocks Leaf litter Shrimp-safe filtration Gentle water flow Plenty of grazing surfaces Avoid sudden changes in water chemistry. Shrimp can be more sensitive to rapid parameter swings than many common aquarium fish. Filtration should also be shrimp-safe, particularly if you plan to breed them. Fine sponge pre-filters can help prevent small shrimp and shrimplets from being pulled into filter intakes. Water Parameters for Aquarium Shrimp Different shrimp species have different water requirements. Neocaridina shrimp such as Cherry Shrimp are generally more adaptable and can tolerate a wider range of conditions when parameters remain stable. Caridina shrimp such as Crystal Red Shrimp often prefer more specific water conditions and may require closer control of hardness, pH and other parameters. Sulawesi shrimp can have very different requirements again. Rather than using one universal set of water parameters for all aquarium shrimp, research the exact species or strain before purchase. Stable conditions are usually more important than chasing constantly changing numbers. Feeding Aquarium Shrimp Shrimp naturally graze on biofilm, algae and organic matter in the aquarium. In established tanks, they may spend much of the day picking at surfaces for food. Supplementary foods can include quality shrimp pellets, algae-based foods and other suitable aquarium foods. Avoid overfeeding. Excess food can quickly reduce water quality and may create problems in small shrimp tanks. Shrimp also benefit from access to varied natural grazing surfaces such as moss, wood and leaf litter. Can Shrimp Live With Fish? Some aquarium shrimp can be kept with peaceful fish, but compatibility depends on the fish species and shrimp size. Small shrimp and shrimplets may be eaten by many fish, even species generally considered peaceful. For breeding colonies, shrimp-only tanks usually provide the highest survival rate for young shrimp. If shrimp are kept in a community aquarium, dense plants and moss can provide useful hiding places. Large or predatory fish are generally unsuitable tankmates for small freshwater shrimp. Breeding Aquarium Shrimp Many freshwater shrimp can breed successfully in home aquariums. Neocaridina shrimp such as Cherry Shrimp are especially popular for breeding because they reproduce readily under suitable conditions. Females carry eggs beneath their abdomen until the young hatch as miniature shrimp. A mature, stable aquarium with good water quality, plenty of grazing surfaces and hiding places can improve survival rates. If you want to maintain a specific colour strain, avoid mixing multiple Neocaridina colour varieties because offspring may gradually lose the selected colour traits. Caridina and specialised shrimp can require more precise conditions for successful breeding. Aquarium Shrimp Price in Singapore Aquarium shrimp prices in Singapore vary widely depending on species, colour, grade, rarity, breeder and quantity. Common Cherry Shrimp may be relatively affordable, while premium Caridina, rare colour strains and specialised Sulawesi shrimp can cost significantly more. Shrimp are also frequently sold in groups rather than individually, so compare the number of shrimp included when comparing prices. For breeding-quality shrimp, colour consistency, genetics and breeder reputation may significantly influence value.

Frequently Asked Questions About Aquarium Shrimp Where can I buy aquarium shrimp in Singapore? You can browse aquarium shrimp listings from shops, breeders and specialist sellers on FishyHub. Available species, colours and prices depend on current seller inventory. Are Cherry Shrimp easy to keep? Cherry Shrimp are generally considered among the easier freshwater shrimp to keep. They still require stable water quality and an established aquarium. What is the difference between Neocaridina and Caridina shrimp? Neocaridina shrimp are generally more adaptable and include popular varieties such as Cherry Shrimp and Blue Dream Shrimp. Many Caridina varieties, including Crystal Red Shrimp, require more specific water conditions. Can aquarium shrimp live with Betta fish? Sometimes, but it depends heavily on the individual Betta. Some may ignore shrimp while others will hunt them, particularly smaller shrimp. Can shrimp live with guppies? Adult shrimp can sometimes coexist with guppies, but guppies may eat small shrimplets. Dense plants and moss can improve survival. What do aquarium shrimp eat? Shrimp graze on biofilm, algae and organic matter and can also be fed quality shrimp foods and suitable algae-based foods. Do aquarium shrimp need a filter? A filter is recommended for maintaining stable water quality. Sponge filters or protected intakes are particularly useful in shrimp tanks. How many shrimp should I start with? For a breeding colony, starting with a small group rather than a single pair improves the chance of having both males and females and developing a stable population. Can different coloured Cherry Shrimp be kept together? Yes, but if different Neocaridina colour strains breed together, later generations may lose the strong selected colours and revert toward more natural coloration. Do Amano Shrimp breed in freshwater? Adult Amano Shrimp live in freshwater, but successful reproduction is more complex because their larvae require different conditions during development.
