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.
Caridina loehae comes from Lake Matano on Sulawesi and grows to only about 2 cm. It can live up to three years and stands out through its orange colouration.
Care is considered difficult and requires a stable, warm Sulawesi tank. We only sell animals from our own breeding stock.
