Common Name:Green Jade Shrimp, Green Emerald Shrimp
Fully Grown Size: 1.6 inches (4cm)
Green Jade Shrimps are one of the newest Neocaridina to come out. Their cool color pops in lighter substrates. Their color ranges from light lime green to dark green. Although dark green is the highest grade for Green Jades, some people prefer a lighter green color so the green is most visible.
Green Jade comes from the Neocaridina Palmata Line and has been selectively bred to get its green color. Although there are multiple colors of neocaridina in the same line, it is not recommended to mix them to keep the genes to be the purist it can be. If you do however mix the colors, you will most likely end up with wild brown colored offsprings.
Green Jade like all neocaridinas are slightly harder to sex until they mature. Once they mature, the female will have a curved underbelly and the male will have a straight underbelly.
These are popular among the shrimp hobby and are great for people getting into the hobby. A general rule of thumb of keeping shrimps is 10 shrimps per gallon. Green Jades are non-aggressive and spend most of their time eating algae and biofilm off plants, glass, and substrate. They make excellent clean up crews for aquascape tanks.
Green Jade are easy to care for as they require remineralized RO water or tap. If you are using tap, keep in mind to check for any harmful metals or chemicals in the water as all tap water is different and some aren't safe to use. 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 sub adults to adults which translate to 1.5cm to 2.0cm.

To Claim DOA:
I ordered 5+1 Neocaridina shrimp here and I had a great experience. Shipping was fast and safe, all 6 shrimps survived! I will shop here again.
Great business. Even sent me links for research before I pulled the trigger. Green Jades are hearty, breeds obsessively & the colors r just vibrant. You can’t go wrong with these.
He packages the shrimp very nicely so they are so stressed when they arrive. He’s also very generous with DOA’s. And his shrimp have all been high grade that I ordered from him.
They made it in safe and have settled in quite nicely! Pretty active and happy in their aquarium. Couldn't be happier with my order!! Thank you so much!
I ordered 20 Green Jade (Neos), and they just got here! Billy was kind enough to hold the shipping of the shrimp while I cycled my tank further - can't say enough about the customer service and the quality of the shrimp. Can't wait to get them in my tank!
