Caridina Raccoon Tiger Shrimp

Caridina Raccoon Tiger Shrimp are a unique and eye-catching freshwater dwarf shrimp known for their distinctive banded patterning. They typically feature a translucent to light-colored body accented by bold, dark horizontal bands across the abdomen, resembling the markings of a raccoon. This striking contrast makes them a standout choice for shrimp-focused aquariums.

These shrimp prefer stable, well-maintained aquariums and are best suited for hobbyists with some experience keeping Caridina species. Caridina Raccoon Tiger Shrimp thrive in soft, slightly acidic water and benefit from mature tanks with plenty of biofilm, mosses, driftwood, and hiding places. They are peaceful, active grazers and spend much of their time foraging across surfaces.

Highly valued for their unusual patterning and natural appearance, Caridina Raccoon Tiger Shrimp are an excellent option for aquarists looking to add diversity, elegance, and visual interest to their freshwater shrimp collection.
