The Green Diamond Shrimp is a premium-grade Neocaridina variety known for its vibrant lime green coloration and enhanced shell clarity. As an elite version of the popular Green Jade line, Green Diamonds offer brighter tones and more consistent color coverage from head to tail.
This high-grade selection is relatively new to the hobby and prized by breeders and collectors looking for a truly vivid green Neocaridina. Their eye-catching, jewel-like glow adds unique contrast in planted tanks, especially when paired with darker substrate or complementary shrimp colors.
Like all Neocaridina, Green Diamonds are hardy, beginner-friendly, and active scavengers, making them an excellent choice for shrimp keepers of all levels.
Each shrimp typically features:
- 💎 Intense lime green shell with consistent coverage
- 🌿 Highly active and great algae/biofilm grazers
- 🦐 Easy to care for and ideal for planted tanks
All shrimp are disease-free and aquarium-safe, bred in clean, shrimp-only environments for optimal health and acclimation.
Note: All Neocaridina shrimp are sold as unsexed juveniles, typically between 1/4" and 1/2" in size when possible.
