TAIWAN FIRE RED SHRIMP – 台湾极火蝦【10 PCs / SET】

Neocaridina Heteropoda Var. ‘Fire Red’
Fire Red Shrimp Are Not A Naturally Occurring Species, But Rather The Product Of Selective Breeding.  It Was Developed From The Red Cherry Shrimp, Which In Itself Is Selectively Bred From The Wild Freshwater Shrimp Neocaridina Heteropoda, A Native To Asia That Has No Red Color.

Some Individuals In Captivity Showed Some Red, And By Selecting Those Shrimp With The Reddest And Most Saturated Color, Breeders Began To Produce A Shrimp With Progressively More Red On Its Body, To The Point Where The Red Color Covers Very Close To 100 Percent Of The Shrimp’s Body. In Addition, Fire Red Shrimp Can Grow Slightly Larger Than The Red Cherry Shrimp.
