Fast Facts

Camel Shrimps are hardier than most other shrimps and they will eat about anything offered. On the other hand, they may also nip at some corals. Their hardiness makes them a good candidate for fish tanks, unlike most other shrimps, which are more delicate. They do well in groups and require no special care once acclimated, and the will eat about anything offered. Like all shrimps, they require careful acclimation. Sensitive to changes in specific gravity and pH, always acclimate slowly. Carnivorous. Offer meaty foods such as brine or mysis shrimp, etc.
