Vampire shrimp brackish?

Post by vipervenom »

Heya. My lfs recently got in a couple vampire shrimp. Very interesting harmless filter feeders I thought would make a nice addition to my brackish tank (minus puffers, lol). Does anyone know if they can acclimatise to brackish or not?

They are best kept in FW, the larvae need BW-SW but not the adults. Rather like the Macrobrachium shrimp and the Amano shrimp.
