Red Tiger Caridina
Striking, elegant, and full of personality — our Red Tiger Caridina are a true standout for any shrimp keeper looking to add something a little different to their aquarium. With their translucent bodies and vivid red striping, these shrimp almost glow as they move through moss, botanicals, and planted setups. ✨

Perfect for experienced shrimp keepers or those ready to step into the world of Caridina, these shrimp thrive in stable, mature aquariums with clean, well-maintained water conditions.
