BLACK GALAXY SHRIMP

Black Galaxy Shrimp (Caridina cf. cantonensis), also known as Black Galaxy Shrimp, are a striking and popular variant of the Taiwan Bee Shrimp. They are admired for their dark coloration with distinctive star-like patterns. Due to their unique appearance and sensitive nature, they require specific care to thrive. Here’s a detailed care guide for Black Galaxy Caridina Shrimp: Tank Size and Setup Tank Size: A minimum tank size of 10 gallons is recommended. Larger tanks are preferable as they provide more stable water conditions and additional space for the shrimp to explore. Substrate: Use a fine, soft substrate such as shrimp-specific soil or sand. Shrimp-specific substrates help maintain the appropriate water parameters and offer a suitable foraging surface. Plants and Decor: Incorporate live plants like Java moss, Java fern, and Anubias. These provide hiding spots and grazing areas. Adding driftwood and rocks can also enhance the natural habitat and provide additional cover. Ligh
