I am a hobby shrimp breeder based in South Devon. My hobby started over 5 years ago and has steadily grown. I have a passion for breeding high quality, healthy shrimp. All of my shrimp are securely packaged in an insulated box and include a free plant. If you have any questions please send me a message. Thank you for looking at my store. Happy shrimp keeping. Paul at Newbers Freshwater Shrimp.
Caridina shrimp are the connoisseur's choice — Crystal Red, Crystal Black, Taiwan Bee, Tiger and Sulawesi varieties, all available from trusted UK breeders on UKshrimp.co.uk. Every listing comes from an independent UK breeder, so you can compare varieties, grades and prices in one place.
Caridina are more demanding than Neocaridina. Most bee-type varieties want soft, acidic water — roughly pH 5.5–6.5, GH 4–6, KH 0–1 and TDS 100–150 — usually achieved with RO water remineralised over an active buffering soil. Tiger varieties are more forgiving and sit closer to neutral.
Grading matters with Caridina, and so does the seller. Every breeder on UKShrimp has public feedback, so you can see exactly who you're buying from before you order.
