Bloody Mary (Neocaridina davidi) has a deep red colour. Males and females both have a red exoskeleton with vivid blood-red tissue underneath, so the whole shrimp looks red.

Water parameters: Neocaridina (Cherry shrimp) do well in tap water in most cases. They are a hardy (harder water species) and dechlorinated tap water suits them well.

Dechlorinate: Always treat tap water with a dechlorinator before use, to prevent harm to the shrimp.

Guidance: For best results, aim for these parameters:

Temperature: 18 to 26 °C

pH: 6.5 to 8.0

GH: 6 to 12

KH: 2 to 6
