About

The Snow White Caridina cantonensis is a stunning all-white bee shrimp morph bred for a pristine, pure white coloration across the entire body. High-grade specimens display no visible transparency, presenting as a perfect ivory-white. Like all Caridina cantonensis, it requires soft, acidic water and diligent parameter management, though it is considered slightly more forgiving than the most advanced Pinto or Fishbone varieties.

Care Guide

Maintain soft, acidic conditions with RO water and a Caridina-specific mineraliser at TDS 100–150 ppm. Keep pH 5.8–6.8, temperature 20–24°C. Provide a well-established planted nano aquarium with plenty of moss and biofilm surfaces. Feed lightly with quality shrimp foods 2–3 times per week.
