Ideal Tank Mates for Blue Dream Shrimp

Breeding Information

Blue Dream Shrimp are prolific breeders when kept in a stable and healthy environment. Females carry eggs under their abdomen, and within a few weeks, fully formed juvenile shrimp emerge. To protect young shrimp, provide plenty of dense plants like moss or hiding spots. Juveniles inherit the vibrant blue hues of their parents, helping your shrimp colony grow beautifully.
