Bamboo Shrimp, also known as Wood Shrimp, Fan Shrimp, or Flower Shrimp, is an unusual and extremely peaceful invertebrate that makes a great addition to any community, freshwater aquarium.
The bamboo shrimp is naturally found in Indonesia, where the Moluccas archipelago forms, but has been also found in Thailand, Malaysia and Sri Lanka. These shrimp are super peaceful and can grow to about 3.5". Although they are big, they should never be kept with dominant or aggressive fish - a peaceful, community tank is always the best environment for them to thrive.
They have an orange-brown coloration with some marbling and striping along the body.
They thrive in planted tanks where shelter and food are abundant. 
  • Great for planted tanks;
  • Amazing lifestyle - Very active;
  • Grows pretty big;
  • Super easy to care for.
Bamboo Shrimp diet:
- Bamboo shrimp will feed on detritus floating in the water column so it is very important that your aquarium has some water flow so these particles can reach and be caught by the shrimp's fans. You can supplement additionally with shrimp powdered food, spirulina powder, and crushed flake food.
