Add some color and excitement to your aquarium with Neon Yellow Shrimp!  These shrimp look great, clean your tank, and are a blast to watch!  Their brilliant yellow coloration draws the eye directly to these dynamic little creatures and adds charm and cheer to any aquarium set-up.  Like all dwarf shrimp, these shrimp are very active and breed quickly.  We generally ship young adult shrimp that are already of breeding age.

Neon Yellow Shrimp are fairly adaptable creatures that can live in almost any freshwater aquarium with the right water parameters.  Younger shrimp may have not reached their full potential yet and will grow into a bright yellow color as long as they are comfortable in the tank.  These yellow shrimp carry the "Goldenback" gene, which produces high quality yellow shrimp with a bright golden stripe down the middle of the back.  Some of this type is included in almost every order, and we will continue to ship a larger amount of Goldenback Yellow Shrimp as our stock improves.
