This is the detailed history and back story of how and when these beautiful shrimp were created, and first brought to the US market. In this video I will attempt to answer questions like-
How old are cherry shrimp? When were cherry shrimp first created? How long have cherry shrimp been around? How old are blue velvet / blue dream shrimp? Who first bred rili shrimp, sakura fire, painted fire or neocaridina davidii shrimp into multiple colors, what's the difference between a blue dream and a blue velvet shrimp?
If you've ever kept neocaridina, a mano, vampire, or caridina shrimp, this video will serve as a complete primer on how we arrived at the strains and colors of shrimp we have today in the Aquatic Hobby. From aquascaping two championship neocaridina breeding, these fascinating and stunning little Crustaceans have captivated millions of people around the world. A small freshwater dwelling shrimp living in swamps and marshes of China and Taiwan, made its way to the top of aquatic pet stardom in less than 25 years.
In this video we will briefly discuss Rachel O'Leary, Lucas Bretz, and the hundreds of dedicated Taiwanese, Chinese, Indonesian, German, Dutch, American, and Japanese Visionaries in selective breeders.
This video will not go in-depth on how to care for these shrimp or how to properly breed them, but rather, the path of genetic selection, which has created over two dozen variants of cherry shrimp or more accurately- the scientifically named Neocaridina davidii, and palmata variants of freshwater shrimp.
These shrimp are a joy to keep in your fishtank, they will clean your excess food waste, eat aquarium algae and serve to create a complete micro ecosystem for your aquascapes, sumps and of course, your aquariums.
