Sun orange amano shrimps are just as tough as the normal brown amano shrimp. These sun orange amanos DO NOT BECOME NEON ORANGE. These do not become as orange as the Orange Sakura Neocaridina. But these sun orange amanos do develop the loveliest little red spots on their bodies with a soft orange-reddish tinge in their shells, making them distinguishable from the usual brown amano. Something a little different. They grow just as big also, as the normal amano does.

Also beware that any Amanos are very, very agile and athletic. They can crawl out of your tank – make sure your water level is slightly dropped or lids are closed.

PLEASE NOTE WE SELL JUVENILES MOSTLY, AND MAY BE MORE PALE. PICTURE DISPLAYED SHOWS END RESULT AND FINAL COLOUR DEVELOPMENT OVER TIME. We try to sell the largest and brightest stock that we have available always.
