Blue Dream

High-Grade Blue Dream Shrimp (Neocaridina davidi) are a striking and highly sought-after colour morph, prized for providing a rich, dark sapphire hue that contrasts beautifully against green aquatic plants. A true Blue Dream grade is defined by a completely solid, deep blue body and carapace, offering intense, full coverage without the lighter or translucent patches seen in lower grades like Blue Jellies or Blue Velvets. High-Grade Blue Dreams show consistent, opaque colour across the top, sides, and legs, making them a breathtaking and vibrant addition to any setup.

These shrimp are famously hardy and adapt to a variety of water conditions, making them a staple for any level of hobbyist. They act as a tireless natural clean-up crew that spends their time grazing on algae and biofilm, helping to maintain a clean and balanced planted aquarium. Their peaceful nature allows them to thrive in community setups alongside small, shrimp-safe nano fish, and they are prolific breeders when provided with a stable environment and plenty of hiding spots among aquarium moss and plants.

Our Breeding Standards
We raise our High-Grade Blue Dreams in our home in Chester within natural ecosystems. Our shrimp colonies are bred and raised in Superfish tanks, scaped exclusively with premium Tropica plants and maintained with reliable Hygger filtration to ensure a stable biological balance. This home-bred approach ensures every shrimp is perfectly acclimated to UK water conditions and at peak health before it ever leaves our care. By focusing on superior genetics and natural environments rather than mass-imported stock, we provide robust, UK-bred shrimp that have been nurtured through their entire life cycle.
