Black Galaxy Caridina Shrimp Bio

The Black Galaxy Caridina Shrimp is a special kind of shrimp that looks like it has stars on its dark body, much like a night sky full of stars. It comes from Taiwan and needs clean water with lots of places to hide and find food. This shrimp is peaceful and can live with other small, friendly fish or shrimp. It's a bit tricky to take care of, but it helps keep the tank clean by eating algae and other waste.
