Red Rili shrimp

Reserve or join the waitlist

Red Rili was the first Rili breed: a Neocaridina davidi with a red head and tail and a clear body. It's graded much like a red cherry, on deep red at each end and solid-coloured legs.

Blue Jelly was selected from it. See also Orange Rili and Blue Jelly.

Keeping Red Rili shrimp in New England water

Like every Neocaridina, it needs a cycled tank, GH around 6–8 and a stable pH near neutral. Most Massachusetts tap and well water is soft, so check yours with the shrimp water checker or read our New England water guide. Pickup in Groton by arrangement, or shipped Monday to Wednesday.
