Snowball Shrimp (Neocaridina cf. zhangjiajiensis) are known for their unique, pearl-white bodies and glowing eggs that resemble snowballs — hence the name. These shrimp add contrast and elegance to planted aquariums while helping keep your tank clean.

Hardy and easy to care for, Snowballs are great for beginners or breeders looking to diversify their Neocaridina lines. Ours are tank-raised in Canadian tap water and shipped at a juvenile-to-sub-adult size for longer lifespan and easier acclimation.

Key Features:

✅ Bright white body with glowing white eggs

✅ Peaceful and community-safe

✅ Algae-eating scavengers

✅ Breed easily in freshwater

✅ Thrive in planted tanks and nano setups
