Before you choose from this collection
Amano shrimp are Caridina multidentata, also sold under the older name Caridina japonica. Compare the stated form, supplied size and sale unit on each listing. This collection does not include every Caridina species or Cherry Shrimp.
Choose them for a mature aquarium with suitable food, cover and companions. Grazing shrimp can help with some growth on aquarium surfaces, but they do not replace maintenance or a feeding plan. The care guide explains feeding, compatibility and the species’ breeding lifecycle.

Frequently asked questions
No. Amano shrimp are Caridina multidentata; common Cherry Shrimp are Neocaridina davidi. Their size, breeding lifecycle and care planning differ. Compare the species guides before deciding which suits your aquarium.
No animal guarantees an algae-free aquarium. Suitable food, stable water, sensible lighting and maintenance remain necessary. Read the feeding guidance rather than buying shrimp as a substitute for correcting an aquarium problem.
Check the sale unit on the exact listing. A quantity of one means one listed sale unit, not automatically a colony or a pack. Current sizes, prices and availability are shown on the product page.
