Fire Shrimp Lysmata Debelius The Fire Shrimp (Lysmata debelius) is a stunning and highly sought-after marine invertebrate known for its vibrant blood-red coloration, delicate gracefulness, and fascinating cleaning behavior. Originating from the Indo-Pacific region, this shrimp can grow up to 4 inches in size and is considered reef-safe, making it a great addition to community saltwater aquariums. As a cleaner shrimp, the Fire Shrimp spends much of its time hiding in rock crevices and caves during the day, but becomes active and lively at night, showcasing its natural cleaning instinct. It will happily eat parasites and dead skin off of its tank mates, helping to keep them healthy. In terms of feeding, the Fire Shrimp is an omnivore and will readily accept a variety of flakes, pellets, and frozen foods. It is also a scavenger and will consume leftover food in the tank. The Fire Shrimp is generally peaceful and can be kept with other peaceful saltwater fish and invertebrates. It may form pairs in larger aquariums. However, large individuals may consume smaller tank mates. For optimal care, the Fire Shrimp requires a minimum aquarium size of 30 gallons with stable water parameters, including a temperature of 76-78°F, pH of 8.1-8.4, and a specific gravity of 1.024-1.026. Regular water changes are necessary to replenish iodine, which is important for the shrimp's molting process. Overall, the Fire Shrimp is considered an easy-to-care-for invertebrate, making it a great choice for both beginner and experienced marine aquarium hobbyists.Above images for illustration purposes only.
