Raccoon Tiger

Caridina mariae

£5.50 per shrimp

Pack of 5: £27.50. Minimum order: 5 shrimp.

Raccoon Tigers wear thick charcoal stripes over a pale, slightly blue-tinged body, and the face mask that earned them the name. They are tigers rather than bees, which makes them one of the more forgiving Caridina: ours do well in soft, slightly acidic water without the strict demands of Crystals. A great stepping stone if you have mastered Neocaridina and fancy something with more pattern.
