The Shrimp Guide is the definitive online resource for freshwater shrimp keeping. We are veteran shrimp keepers with 20+ years of combined experience breeding Neocaridina, Caridina, Taiwan Bees, and Sulawesi species.
Our Mission
We believe every shrimp keeper — from complete beginner to professional breeder — deserves access to accurate, expert-level guidance without the gatekeeping, misinformation, or aggressive product pushing that plagues most aquarium content online.
Every article on this site is written from firsthand experience. We test every product we recommend in our own fishrooms. We don't regurgitate manufacturer marketing — we tell you what actually works.
What We Cover
- Species Guides: Deep-dive profiles for Neocaridina, Caridina, Sulawesi, and specialty species.
- Water Chemistry: Technical guides on pH, GH, KH, TDS, and the nitrogen cycle.
- Equipment Reviews: Honest, tested reviews of filters, heaters, substrates, and tools.
- Breeding & Genetics: Advanced guides on selective breeding, line breeding, and genetics.
- Troubleshooting: Diagnostic guides for diseases, pests, and common mistakes.
Our Philosophy
"Shrimp keeping is not about keeping shrimp. It is about keeping water."
If you focus on mastering water chemistry, biofilm, and the metabolic stability of your closed aquatic system, the shrimp will take care of themselves. That's the core philosophy behind every guide we publish.
