Blue Bolts Shrimps are blueish/white shrimp that are part of the Taiwan Bee Family. These Blue Bolts color can change due to water temperature and parameter. These fantastic shrimps are great for breeding projects. When a Blue bolt mix with a Black King Kong, the offsprings may come out to Shadow Black King Kong.
Blue Bolt Shrimps can be kept with other Taiwan Bees but is not recommended because it may bring down the quality of the blue bolt. To improve its coloration, its best to keep the best looking ones together.
These are great for people who kept shrimps and are looking into something different and a little more challenging. A general rule of thumb of keeping shrimps is 10 shrimps per gallon. Blue Bolt Shrimps are non-aggressive and spend most of their time eating algae and biofilm off plants, glass, and substrate.
Blue Bolt Shrimps are easy to care for as they require remineralized RO water. When using fertilizer, make sure it does not contain copper as it is harmful to the shrimp’s health.

To Claim DOA:
Stunning colors. Healthy and active. Great prices too. =)
Blue Bolts arrived looking great even after sitting in the post office over the weekend. Will definitely order more when they are back in stock.
The shrimp arrived perfectly and all survived, they all had great color, thank you billyboiaquatics!
I've bought tons from billyboiaquatics and the quality and health if the shrimp on arrival is usually awesome. On the very few (like twice out of maybe 10 past times where the colour grade wasn't great or DOA, they've always been quick and helpful issuing a refund or sending replacements. The blue bolt are juvenile size, but and arrived VERY pale (to the point where I actually emailed asking if I were sent neocaradina by mistake) but after a couple hours they had coloured up and they look SO GOOD. Ordered 15, all were alive on arrival, I've lost 1 so far due to water parameter issues on my end I'm guessing. Love billyboiaquatics.
Juvies are now growing into beautiful adults. Hoping for some females to become berried soon!
