Scientific Name: Caridina sp. "Tiger" (belongs to the Caridina serrata species complex)
Size: 2.5-3.5cm
Temperature: best kept at 70F-78F ( ถ้าเลี้ยงได้ในอุณหภูมิประมาณ 20 - 25 องศา จะดีมากๆเลยครับ )
Water Parameters: Needs soft, acidic water to feel well and breed. Can survive for a while in slightly alkaline water, but usually no offspring survive after hatching. Adults seem to be shorter lived in alkaline water, too.
Food: Algae, fish food (flake pellets etc.)
Origin: probably southern China
Larval Development Type: Completely Suppressed: Larvae assume a benthic lifestyle after hatching, i.e. they are miniature versions of the adults. There is no planktonic larval stage.
