Blood Shrimp

What is the Swell Blood Shrimp?

The Blood Shrimp are an amazing species of shrimp which are known for its bright red body which resembles the colour of blood which is how it gets its name. They also feature white spots along their body and legs and they have white antennae which create a beautiful contrast and allow them to stand out in your aquarium. They are naturally shy and nocturnal so they will only come out for food at night, however given enough time they will get used to you and may even come out during the day time
