Animals and plants differ in their demands on water parameters, tank size and tank mates. Please check the details in the tabs below before you buy. If you are unsure, just get in touch before ordering — we are happy to advise.
The Amano shrimp grows to 5.5 to 6 cm and can live up to eight years. Its body is transparent with a fine row of dots along the flanks.
It reliably grazes hair algae and leftover food and is easy to watch during the day. It will not reproduce in freshwater, as the larvae need brackish water.
