Caridina cantonensis — the Black Pinto shows a spotted head and zebra-striped back in black-and-white Taiwan bee genetics. Pintos are the pattern collectors chase: every animal is individually marked, so no two are alike.

At a glance

  • Species: Caridina cantonensis (Taiwan bee cross)
  • Colour: black-and-white pinto patterning

Care at a glance

  • Water: 20–23°C, pH 6.0–6.5, GH 4–6 (soft, acidic — RO water remineralized with a Caridina-specific GH+ mineral)
  • Care level: advanced — stable parameters are essential
  • Diet: biofilm plus quality shrimp foods, mineral supplements and the occasional blanched vegetable
  • Tank mates: best kept in a dedicated Caridina/Taiwan-bee tank; avoid fish that prey on shrimplets
