A Skittles Shrimp Tank is a vibrant aquarium brimming with an array of Neocaridina shrimp varieties, showcasing a dazzling spectrum of colors reminiscent of a bag of Skittles candy. This assortment features a delightful mix, including Red Cherry, Blue Velvet, Blue Dream, Blue Jelly, Snowball, Yellow, Orange Sakura, and Green Jade shrimp, Rili’s etc (specific varieties sent will depend on current stock).

This option is ideal for those who appreciate colorful shrimp but are flexible about specific hues while still wanting quality specimens. However, keep in mind that the enchanting color mix may lead to interbreeding among different varieties, resulting in offspring that could develop more subdued or wild-type brown coloration over time. To preserve the vibrant diversity, careful breeding management or the periodic introduction of pure lines might be necessary.

Note that no more than three shrimp of the same color will be selected per pack. These are not cull shrimp; rather, they are leftovers of certain colors which are running low.
