Neocaridina "Yellow Fire Neon" is a popular dwarf shrimp breeding form. It is easy to keep and easy to breed too. The Yellow Fire Neon is yellow with an intensely luminous back line and shows particularly pretty colors on a dark (black) substrate. The females and older animals are colored more intensively, freshly hatched young animals are almost transparent. You can support the coloring by feeding astaxanthin. After the transfer, the animals need a few days to weeks to present the full coloring.

It is interesting that the Yellow Fire Neon can be a bit more challenging than other Neocaridina varietes when it comes to propagation, because they pause breeding more often than other Neocaridina breeding forms.
