White Snowball shrimp also known as White Pearl shrimp are freshwater invertebrates that are purely white or translucent in color.
Originated in Southeast Asia, this species is a pure white selectively bred species of the wild Neocaridina (Neocaridina zhangiajiensis). White Pearl and Blue Pearl shrimp were both presented in Germany by Ulf Gottschalk in 2006. It took him years of selectively breeding to get a stable line of white color.
