Special Notes
Because shrimp are sensitive to their environment, there are a few other things to keep in mind. For example, copper, copper based and even some non-copper based fish medication can seriously harm them. Always research whether medication you want to use in your shrimp tank is actually safe or not before using it, as the wrong medication can kill off an entire colony.
Wash any new plants/decorations before introducing them to the tank.
Feeding your Shrimp is easy. Like many omnivores, they love variety. They will eat almost any aquarium food but love shrimp pellets, algae wafers, blanched vegetables (zucchini, carrots, etc.), or one of the more exotic foods on the market. Many shrimp keepers suggest that you feed only every other day, or at least put no food into the tank one day per week. We recommend you try to remove uneaten food after 2-3 hours as it will release toxic ammonia and nitrite as it decomposes.
Blue Cherry Shrimp Characteristics
They prefer clean water with a ph of 6.5-8.0, and a rough temperature of 56 to 86 degrees, most comfortable at a moderate room temperature of about 72 degrees.
