Caridina cantonensis

Pack of 5: £20.00. Minimum order: 5 shrimp.

Calceo Bees, known to many keepers as Red Dragons, are one of the prettiest things you can put in a shrimp tank: an almost transparent body crossed with vivid red banding, finished with a warm golden head. The clear shell means you can watch everything going on inside them, which is either fascinating or slightly rude depending on your outlook. Care is standard bee shrimp: soft, slightly acidic water over active substrate, kept stable. A lovely next step for anyone comfortable with Crystals.
