Ocean Blue Caridina

The Ocean Blue Caridina is a beautifully deep blue variant of the Caridina genus, admired for its rich, ocean-like colouration and subtle patterning. Their vibrant tones make them a captivating addition to any aquascaped shrimp tank.

Care and Water Parameters:

• pH: 6.0–7.2

• GH: 4–6 dGH

• KH: 0–2 dKH

• TDS: 100–180 ppm

• Temperature: 22–26°C

Tank Setup:
These shrimp thrive in well-planted aquaria with moss, driftwood, and natural botanicals to promote biofilm growth. A soft, active substrate helps maintain stable water conditions suited to Caridina species.

Feeding:
Ocean Blue Caridina are omnivores. Offer a balanced diet of Caridina-specific foods, blanched vegetables, and natural algae/biofilm. Feed sparingly to avoid water quality issues.

Breeding:
With stable, soft water conditions and minimal stress, breeding is possible in the aquarium. Females carry eggs beneath their abdomen until hatching. Young shrimp graze on biofilm and require fine foods until large enough to accept regular shrimp diets.

Why They’re Special:
Their bold, oceanic blue colouration makes Ocean Blue Caridina a true showpiece for any shrimp enthusiast looking to elevate their tank’s aesthetic.
