The Red Nanacy Shrimp (also known as Red Nanashi) is a rare and breathtaking designer Caridina, newly introduced to the shrimp hobby. Created by crossing two of the most sought-after lines — the Nanacy Pinto and other high-grade Pintos — this shrimp combines unique patterning with deep red coloration for a truly standout appearance.
Its defining features include white cheek spots and a bold Nanacy-style red body pattern. The result is a shrimp that’s as rare as it is stunning, with no two individuals exactly alike.
Because of its unique lineage, the Red Nanacy is difficult to replicate in breeding. Pricing is based on color depth, pattern clarity, size, and sex. Whether for breeding or display, this elite shrimp is a prized addition to any serious keeper’s collection.
Each shrimp may feature:
- 🔴 Vibrant red base with Nanacy body pattern
- 🌟 White cheek spots or dotted facial markings
- 📏 Sold at 0.5"–0.75"; can grow to ~1 inch
- ⏳ Lifespan of 1–2 years in ideal conditions
All shrimp are disease-free and aquarium-safe, bred in clean, shrimp-only environments for better health and easier acclimation.
Note: All Caridina shrimp are sold as unsexed juveniles, typically between 1/2" and 3/4" in size when possible.
