Green Rili Shrimps are one of the newest variant of
Green Rili Shrimps come from the Neocaridina Davidi Line and have been selectively bred to get its green color and clear center body. Although there are multiple colors of Neocaridinas 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 Rili Shrimps 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 Rili 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 Rili Shrimps 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.

Although it's rare that shrimps will arrive DOA, it does occur due to the process of shipping and the amount of stress it puts on the shrimps so we always recommend overnight shipping. In an event of an DOA, a refund or reshipment will be issued for only the DOA (not including the shipping cost).
To Claim DOA:
Although so green and cute, mine hid in my dense nano aquarium. The fact that they Camouflage with the greenscape makes it hard to see them/hard to find. I highly suggest using only contrasting plants. Regardless, they're beautiful.
I was looking everywhere for some and couldn't find them. Someone said to contact Billy and i did and he just put them up. I have had them only a little while and i do believe i have one berried female so its going awesome. I am just returning to the hobby and this is my first setup to start me back with shrimp. I would recommend them to anyone. I hope to get more as soon as i setup more tanks.
Billy has a great variety of shrimps! The Green Rili being a rare find and making it affordable. Made 2 separate purchases. Very pleased with transaction and quick responses to my questions.
I ordered these little guys, never have seen them before.
They arrived quickly in great shape, acclimated well but all appeared dark blue/black rili.
Having ordered green Jade shrimp in the past, I knew to be patient for them to color up. They did not disappoint. They are all beautiful green rili as I had hoped for! Thanks for a beautiful new addition to my shrimp hobby.
