Amano Shrimp (Caridina multidentata) are renowned for their algae-eating prowess and ease of care, making them a staple for any freshwater aquarium. These active, translucent shrimp with subtle brown or greenish hues thrive in a wide range of water conditions. Known for their hardiness and peaceful nature, Amano Shrimp can coexist with other non-aggressive tank mates while helping maintain a clean and balanced environment. They also won't interbreed with other shrimp species. Perfect for planted tanks, they actively graze on algae and leftover food, promoting overall tank health.

Super awesome looking!

Bought 5 and received 6 and there were 3 of them that were a nice shade of blue. They are very active and doing great cleaning my tanks.

Such happy little Shramps!

They’re doing great! Only lost one of 15 and only because my submerged light came unstuck and became a rainbow bridge for the poor dude while I was at work. 6 out of 5 stars, would recommend!

Active and doing well

I was in need of a few Amano shrimp and ordered some from here. They were a good size and after drip acclimating them for a few hours I added them to my tank. They settled in quickly and over a couple days helped clear up some brown algae that had been growing on some plants. They’re very active in my tank zooming from place to place between meals, I watched one try to haul away a whole food pellet. Packaging was very good and I believe there was some food as well for them so they had a snack during their trip. Overall pretty happy with these shrimp.
