The Amano Shrimp (Caridina japonica) is sometimes called a Japonica Amano Shrimp or a Japanese Swamp Shrimp. It belongs to the family named Palaemonidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 2.0 inches in length, the Amano Shrimp is passive in nature and hardy in stamina. It's more active during the daytime and less at night. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is unlikely and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Caridina japonica should not be housed in a tank less than 10 gallons in size. Tank parameters should be maintained with ph level between 6.0 - 7.5, temperature between 60 - 79 degrees fahrenheit, Some of the environmental concerns that you should strive to replicate in your home aquaria to promote succesful acclimation include a well established aquarium, planted aquarium, and established substrate.
