Colorful Amano Shrimp Combo Pack – Tank-Bred Lemon Yellow, Sun Orange & Snow (1, 3, or 5 of Each)
Add a vibrant twist to your cleanup crew with our Colorful Amano Shrimp Combo Pack, featuring three naturally occurring color variants: Lemon Yellow, Sun Orange, and Snow (white). These shrimp are tank-bred, not wild-caught, making them well-adapted to aquarium life and hardier than their imported counterparts.
Each combo pack includes equal numbers of each color:
Pack of 3 – 1 of each color
Pack of 9 – 3 of each color
Pack of 15 – 5 of each color
Color Variants Included:
Lemon Yellow Amano Shrimp – Bright, golden-yellow hue with translucent undertones. Adds a sunny pop of color to any aquascape.
Sun Orange Amano Shrimp – Warm, orange-toned shrimp with subtle red hues. Energetic in color and behavior.
Snow Amano Shrimp – Pale white to translucent appearance with a frosty finish, ideal for minimalist and natural-style tanks.
Note on Size:These colorful Amano Shrimp, like the standard Amano Shrimp, undergo a complex larval developmental stage that makes production both slow and labor-intensive. This striking color variant has been selectively bred over time, and only a small number of breeders are currently producing it. Due to the limited availability and high demand, our supplier is often only able to provide smaller-sized individuals. While these shrimp may arrive smaller than typical Amano Shrimp, they are healthy, active, and will continue to grow and thrive under proper aquarium conditions.
Why We Love Them:
Colorful & Natural: Rare color variants of Amano Shrimp that stand out beautifully in planted tanks.
Active Cleaners: Constant grazers that help keep algae and debris under control.
Peaceful Tankmates: Perfect for shrimp-safe community setups.
Tank-Bred: Raised in aquariums for better health, longevity, and acclimation.
Aquascaping:
These shrimp thrive in natural aquascapes that encourage foraging and biofilm development. We recommend:
Plants: Java Moss, Anubias, Hornwort, Subwassertang, and floating plants like Frogbit or Duckweed.
