Amano Shrimp
Caridina multidentata
Amano shrimp are another popular choice of shrimps for the freshwater aquarium. They are peaceful shrimps whose only goal is to eat up algae and other organic debris. T
heir colors do not stand out like the Neocaridina shrimps do, as Amano shrimps are translucent with faint patterns on their backs.
They should be housed in a planted tank to provide them grazing space, as well as to give them shaded areas to feel secure in. They should not be kept with larger, more aggressive fish.
They grow much larger than the other dwarf shrimp, up to a maximum of 2 inches. They prefer their water temperature between 60-80F, pH between 6.0-7.6, dKH between 0-10, and a TDS reading between 80-400.
