Snowball Neocaridina Shrimp (Neocaridina davidi), also known simply as Snowball Shrimp, are a striking and popular variety of freshwater dwarf shrimp characterized by their translucent white bodies and bright white eggs. They are a favorite among shrimp enthusiasts due to their hardiness, ease of care, and beautiful appearance. Here’s a detailed care guide for Snowball Neocaridina Shrimp: Tank Size and Setup Tank Size: A minimum tank size of 5 gallons is recommended for a small colony of Snowball Shrimp. Larger tanks (10 gallons or more) are ideal for bigger colonies, providing more space for growth and stability in water parameters. Aquascape: Snowball Shrimp thrive in planted tanks with plenty of hiding spots and surfaces to graze on biofilm. Use a combination of live plants such as Java moss, Anubias, and moss balls, which provide cover and contribute to water quality.
