Detailed Description

Welcome to the big leagues of shrimp keeping. PRL Crystal Shrimp are not your average aquarium inhabitant; they are the result of a passionate global pursuit of perfection. Sourced from top-tier breeders, our stock represents the crème de la crème of the Caridina cantonensis family.

Keeping and breeding PRL shrimp is a deeply rewarding hobby that requires attention to detail. They demand specific, soft, acidic water parameters to truly thrive and reveal their full color potential. Success with these jewels means creating a stable, mature aquarium rich in biofilm and devoid of pollutants.

This is more than a purchase; it's the start of a project. For those who accept the challenge, the payoff is a self-sustaining colony of some of the most beautiful invertebrates on the planet. This is the journey every serious shrimp keeper aspires to.

Ideal For:

  • The Advanced Aquarist

  • Dedicated Shrimp Breeders

  • Aquascapers wanting a premium, colorful clean-up crew

  • Those seeking a rewarding and profitable hobby
