Purple Metallic Nanacy Tiger shrimp are a stunning and rare variety of Caridina that bring bold, iridescent color to any freshwater shrimp setup. Known for their vibrant metallic purple hues and distinctive tiger-striped pattern on the tail, these shrimp shimmer under aquarium lighting and truly stand out among other species. Their coloration can range from a rich, velvety purple to a brighter, more reflective sheen depending on age, lighting, and genetics. Each shrimp is unique—some may show cleaner, more defined stripes, while others display a smoky metallic gradient across their body.

Whether you’re a hobbyist looking to diversify your Caridina collection or a breeder seeking standout genetics, Purple Metallic Nanacy Tigers offer a beautiful and eye-catching addition to a well-maintained shrimp tank.

Wonderful shrimp!

Very happy with the order I made! Daniel was very kind and accommodating, I was very worried when the package got delayed but he was very reassuring. Even then all the shrimp arrived alive and well and for mid grade they are still a stunning purple! My phone camera doesn't do it justice. But this place is probably one of the best online websites to buy shrimp, thank you so much!!

Amazing Purple Metallic Tigers!

Honestly, the photos don't even do them justice... these Purple Metallic Tigers are truly great. They have a good thick shell, are a beautiful deep purple, and the metallic sheen really catches the light. The shrimp arrived healthy, active, and started grazing within an hour of being acclimated. I could immediately tell they're high quality and had been well cared for. I’ve kept a lot of Caridina, and these are some of the most striking in my tank.
