Description

This exclusive combo pack includes a mix of Yellow Eye (YE) Yellow Cherry Shrimp and Yellow Eye (YE) Red Cherry Shrimp, selectively bred in-house at Aquatic Arts. Each shrimp displays the signature colored-eye trait — striking yellow eyes that redefine the modern Neocaridina aesthetic.

The red and yellow forms offer stunning contrast in planted aquariums, while remaining peaceful, hardy, and eager grazers. These shrimp thrive in colonies, reproduce readily in mature tanks, and contribute to a balanced aquatic ecosystem.

Coloration may vary based on age, gender, and environment, but all shrimp in this combo pack maintain the distinct Yellow Eye trait.

Variant Details

• 3 YE Yellow + 3 YE Red Cherry Shrimp
A balanced starter colony of six Yellow Eye Cherry Shrimp in two striking color morphs.

• 5 YE Yellow + 5 YE Red Cherry Shrimp
A larger colony for faster growth, breeding potential, and visual impact.

• 3 + 3 with Wet Buddha Pod (submerged) + Food
Includes a fully waterlogged Buddha Pod rich in natural biofilm — instant grazing and shelter. Also Aquatic Arts Starter Shrimp Food Pack.

• 3 + 3 Complete Starter Combo (Food + Botanicals + Moss)
Everything needed to establish a thriving colony: Aquatic Arts Starter Shrimp Food Pack, Botanical Breeder Combo Pack, and a loose portion of live moss.

About the YE (Yellow Eye) Trait

Classic Neocaridina shrimp have dark eyes. Through patient selective breeding, the Yellow Eye trait was stabilized — creating luminous golden eyes that enhance color depth and clarity.
At Aquatic Arts, every generation is refined for coverage, clarity, and consistency.

Evolution You Can See.

If other items are in your cart that can ship with 2 day or standard shipping options the only shipping method you can still select is UPS 1 Day Air.

Shipping Schedule for this service

UPS 1 Day: Monday through Thursday

Current Handling Time:

1-9 business days

Here at Aquatic Arts, we consider the welfare of the live animals we are shipping to be of the foremost importance. This process is much more involved than simply creating a shipping label and affixing it to a box. Depending on the order, it takes from 4 to 7 people to complete this process properly. We check the weather conditions here where they fly out of the Indianapolis UPS facility and the destination for each shipment. We start early each morning and go through a multi-step process to have the day's shipments prepared in time for the UPS pickup. The volume of orders in our system also affects the processing time. Therefore our stated handling time is 1-9 business days.

Shipping Rate

Pricing is by size of package needed to fill entire order and distance it must travel. It will be calculated at checkout.
