Fancy Red Tiger are the new popular shrimp a lot of people are looking for. They created by mixing tigers and pure red line together until the breeder gets their desired pattern and color. Their offsprings have slightly different fancy pattern which makes this shrimp so unique.
Red Fancy Tigers are the results of breeding Pure Red Line and Tigers together. It was recently discovered that many breeders use Taiwan Bee to make the red more opaque.
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. Red Fancy Tigers are non-aggressive and spend most of their time eating algae and biofilm off plants, glass, and substrate.
Red Fancy Tigers 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.
The shrimps you will receive will be juvies to sub adults which translate to 0.47 to 0.60 inches (1.2cm to 1.5cm).
