Rudolph Shrimp is an algae-eating species. Caridina gracilirostris has a nearly transparent body with an elongated red rostrum on its head. There are clusters of small and tight spikes on the ventral side of the rostrum. The dorsal side is covered with larger and more dispersed spikes. If the shrimp's rostrum is broken off, it will regenerate. Males have red lines running laterally down the body, while females are less colorful and more transparent. Both genders have a distinct hump on their abdomen. An adult can reach 3.5–4 centimeters (1.4–1.6 in).

  • Male/Female: Will be picked at random (no custom orders)

Misleading Image

The image used show a purple shrimp. All of the shrimp I received are colorless. Health wise they are fine but should mention that the shrimp are not the actual color shown in the selling image.

Happy and healthy

Our new shrimp are doing wonderfully! They are such a welcome change to their boring Amano brethren. Acclimated easily and have already started molting. They love to swim around and are a blast to watch!

Partial success..ish

Was packed with inadequate heat and the package stayed an extra night. Bought these shrimp with some corys and k. Loaches. The corys were all doa, loaches didn't last the night, and 4 of the 8 shrimp survived.

I got a refund for the corys, but didn't bother with the rest. They talk about certain shipping times and prep to make sure this doesn't happen. It happened, I'll go somewhere else next.
