Compare Bamboo and Vampire Shrimp. These Atyopsis and Atya choices need suitable feeding positions and a reliable supply of food carried through the water.
The Bamboo or Wood Shrimp offer is Atyopsis moluccensis; the Vampire Shrimp is Atya gabonensis. The older Atyopsis directory contains both. Choose by the complete name and adult needs rather than colour or a single generic shrimp-care recipe.

Provide an ongoing feeding plan and stable water rather than relying on visible algae or whatever larger fish leave behind. Assess fish companions and make sure the shrimp can shelter and moult without disturbance.
