How to Care for Black Rose Shrimp ?
• Temperature: 20–26°C
• pH: 6.5–7.5
• TDS: 150–250 ppm
• Keep in a stable, planted tank with low water flow
• Best kept in groups of 8 or more for social comfort
• Provide moss, driftwood, and hiding spots to reduce stress
⸻
Diet:
They thrive on biofilm, algae, blanched vegetables (like spinach or zucchini), spirulina, and high-quality shrimp pellets. A varied diet keeps them healthy and vibrant.
⸻
Tank Size & Grouping:
• Minimum Tank Size: 20 Litres
• Best kept in groups of 6 or more to encourage natural behavior
• Live plants and moss help foster biofilm growth and provide cover
⸻
Breeding:
Black Rose Shrimp breed easily under stable conditions. Females carry dark-colored eggs and give birth to tiny, fully-formed shrimplets.
Tip:
Start with 8 to 10 shrimp to increase the likelihood of having both males and females for successful breeding. Avoid housing with aggressive fish or shrimp species. A calm, plant-filled tank with hiding spots helps encourage breeding behavior.

I had an excellent experience with this website. The quality of both the aquatic plants and Bloody Mary shrimp exceeded expectations.
The plants arrived healthy, well-rooted, and free from pests or melt. They adapted quickly to my tank, contributing to a very natural and pristine aquascape.
The Bloody Mary shrimp were of premium grade with deep coloration, active behavior, and zero visible stress on arrival. Most importantly, they acclimated smoothly and have since bred successfully, which clearly reflects their quality and proper handling before delivery.
Overall, the combination of high-quality livestock, healthy plants, and reliable packaging has significantly improved both the visual appeal of my tank and the success of my breeding setup.
Highly recommended for anyone serious about aquascaping or shrimp keeping.

Hi, just wanted to share my feedback after around 2 months 😊
The aquatic plants (ferns, anubias, grass) are doing really well and have settled beautifully in my tank. Everything arrived in great condition and the quality truly shows over time.
A special mention to the Bucephalandra! it’s super healthy, vibrant, and has become one of the most beautiful highlights of my setup. It’s even started flowering with a beautiful white bloom ✨
The shrimps are also in excellent health, active, colorful, and thriving without any issues 👍
Overall, really impressed with the quality and care. Keep up the great work! 🙌
