Blue Dream Shrimp vs. Blue Cherry Shrimp

While both Blue Dream Shrimp and Blue Cherry Shrimp are popular for their striking blue hues, Blue Dream Shrimp offer a richer, deeper shade of blue. Both species thrive in community tanks, but the Blue Dream Shrimp are often favored for their enhanced vibrancy, making them a great choice for aquarists looking for a standout addition to their tank.

Ideal Water Parameters:

•pH: 6.4 – 7.6

•Temperature: 18°C – 23°C

•General Hardness (GH): 6 – 10 dGH

•Nitrate Levels: 0 – 20 ppm

Maintaining these parameters ensures your shrimp will thrive, breed, and exhibit their full color potential.

Tank Recommendations:

We recommend keeping Blue Dream Shrimp in a colony of 10-20 individuals for optimal activity and natural behaviors. They are best suited for a 5-gallon tank or larger to allow enough space for growth and breeding. Providing live plants like Java moss or Anubias not only enhances the tank’s aesthetics but also offers additional surfaces for biofilm growth, further supporting your shrimp’s health.

Avoid adding aggressive fish species, as Blue Dream Shrimp prefer a peaceful environment and may become stressed if housed with larger or predatory tank mates.

Breeding Blue Dream Shrimp

Blue Dream Shrimp are prolific breeders under stable conditions. To encourage breeding:

•Ensure stable water parameters, particularly in terms of pH and temperature.

•Provide plenty of hiding spots like rocks, caves, or dense plant growth for the females to release their young (shrimplets).

•Feed them a balanced diet, including specialized shrimp pellets and blanched vegetables, to keep them healthy during reproduction.
