Product Details

Description: Coral Banded Shrimp are very popular among reef keepers due to their exquisite coloring and active nature. They are a beautiful addition to the reef with candy cane striped bodies, multiple pairs of bright white antennae, and 3 pairs of miniature claws. They are very active and enjoy lots of live rock to scour for detritus, and will hunt and kill pest bristle worms. They are also active "cleaner shrimp". Fish will swim close and allow the shrimp to pick parasites from the flesh. They will also feed on uneaten fish food that falls to the bottom such as frozen foods, pellet and flake. They are reef-safe and only one should be kept per tank, unless they are a confirmed mated pair in which case the pair can be kept in the same tank. Hardy, but must be acclimated slowly to avoid any salinity and/or pH shock

Food and Diet: It feeds by grazing on algae and anything it can find. Will take bits of any food that is added. supplemental feeding not required

Level of Care: Easy

Recommended Minimum Tank Size: 1 gallon or larger

Reef Compatibility: Very good

Company Details

It all started with a small aquarium in the year 2000 when I was 9. It was nothing short of a life-changing experience for me. The Turbo Snail was busy munching up the bad Algae on the glass of the aquarium; a Yellow Tang was busy grazing on one of the corals, a Sailfin chasing away competition, Percula Clowns sneaking up from their host Anemones! The aquarium had so much of color and life in it. Nothing stood still, and each one of the living beings went about their work, quietly and gently. It soon grew to be one of my greatest inspirations, leading me to pursue my passion for marine life and create a living out of it. And a day, here in Kolkata, I am ready to share all that I love and have learnt, with more people. Creating the awareness about this hobby was the biggest challenge that I faced, coupled with the quality of the live stocks that was sold in the market. I decided to create Marine World where quality imported live stocks and other accessories would be available at the best prices. For over 10 years Marine World’s marine fishes & other live decorative supply have been invited into the homes of millions of hobbyist - aquarium & fish, and more - making us one of the leading direct marketer and importer of marine fish supplies in the country.
