Let customers speak for us
from 168 reviewsBeautiful colour. Good size. Active and fun to look for and watch. The order came quickly. Will order again.

All shrimp arrived healthy and active with a good variety of colours. Nicely packed as well and the freebies are an added plus. Great value and quality for the price. Thank you

Such pretty little guys I love them I’ve never seen shrimp like these before

My shrimps all arrived happy and healthy such beautiful colors they will be a great new addition to my tan!

Fun little shrimp, good at playing hide and seek, they either love their new tank or have been busy during the shipping, some of them already have eggs, great way to start a colony! Safe shipping with minimal loss

I recently ordered shrimp from cherryshrimpcanada.com, and I’m thrilled to say they all arrived alive and healthy! Many of them even have little yellow eggies, which is such a promising sign. They’re lively and seem to be adjusting well to their new tank.
One small suggestion for improvement, while the buying process was quick and smooth, the shipping could be a bit better. My package arrived quite cold, as it didn’t have any “Live Animal” labels or heating packs, which would have been nice given the chilly nights. I think adding a “Live” sticker or an option to include a heat pack would make a big difference.
That said, I really appreciate the free log and leaves that came with my order, such a nice touch, and a great value for the price! Overall, 10/10 experience, and I’ll definitely be ordering again. Highly recommend to fellow shrimp enthusiasts!

I love these guys! Arrived in Manitoba healthy and happy. Just getting them used to their new tank. You folks never let me down. I'm always impressed at how well they are packed.

No issues. All as expected. Received 20 snowballs of both sexes and some variance in age/size. A couple of the females were berried haven't dropped their eggs yet!

Beautiful, healthy shrimp. I received them very quickly

Ordered my first batch from Cherry Shrimp Canada and it will NOT be my last! One even had a belly full of eggs. XOXO

Was very pleased, I received 22 shrimp of 6 different colors plus all the extras that are included. It arrived on time with all the shrimp alive and energetic. I will be ordering again.
Thank You

They arrived on time, a good size and very active.

Arrived healthy and well packaged. One of my favorite new additions, the color really stands out.

Had an issue with an initial order but it was addressed promptly and efficiently. Re ordered and received all the shrimp alive and well. Thank you! Nice thicc shrimps. Highly recommend

Collection: Home page
We sell award winning high grade cherry shrimps. Cherry Shrimps are the scientific species called Neocaridina Davidi. Naturally cherry shrimps originated from Taiwan in the wild and have over the decades been breed all over the world as freshwater aquarium cherry shrimps of all kinds of colours (Blue, Reds, etc). We offer healthy young adults around 1.5 to 2.5cm in size and juveniles on request.
Behavior and Temperament: Omnivore, Scavenger, Non aggressive. They are active throughout the day and can be seen grazing on biofilm, aquarium décor or the sides of the tank, hunting detritus among the gravel, and sometimes even mating.
Molting: Periodically, a shrimp will shed its exoskeleton, leaving an empty white ghost of itself caught in the plants or drifting around the tank. This is normal and the skeleton should be left in the tank, as the shrimp will eat it to recover the valuable minerals it contains.
Breeding: They will be ready to begin breeding when they are 4 to 6 months old. They have 20–30 eggs, which take 2–3 weeks to hatch. To maximize the survival rate you need a stable and cycled tank that does not have any other fish. If you have other fish, please provide as much natural foliage (Java moss, Subwassertang, etc) as a place to hide.
Food Requirements: We recommend the use of specialized shrimp food from BacterAE and ShrimpKing. Blanched (boiled until soft) vegetables such as zucchini, carrots, peas, cucumber, kale and spinach can be supplemented but make sure you take out anything the shrimp can't eat after a couple of hours.
