Overview
Our Mixed Neo Cull Pack is the perfect starting point for anyone looking to get into shrimp before committing and spending larger amounts of money of specific shrimp. These cull shrimp also referred to sometimes as a smarty or skittle pack are healthy and beautiful in their own way, but we would not like them in our main breeding lines. The cull pack can contain shrimp of any of the following lines:
- Blue Dream
- Black Rose
- 24k Yellow
- Red Cherry
- Bloody Mary
- Wild Form (Brown)
- Orange
We cull our shrimp to ensure our main breeding lines remains as pure and high quality as possible and by only selecting the best shrimp to be used for the next seasons breeding!
You will receive 10 randomly caught shrimp from our cull tank. Due to the nature of culling, sometimes this mix is very mixed with a lot of colours, and other time there might be more of a single colour due to recent culling.

Other tank mates
Dwarf shrimp are peaceful in nature and are best kept in a tank of their own. They can however be kept with fish, but some losses might occur. Snails are also good tank mates as they are both peaceful and will coexist.
The only true shrimp-friendly fish is the Ottocinclus catfish (Also only called Otto cat). Not sure what fish work well with shrimp? Rule of thumb: if the shrimp can fit in the fish’s mouth, it will try and eat it.
Feeding
The Neocaridina species will accept most varieties of food but it is highly recommended to not overfeed as shrimp will also scavenge bio-film and algae in the tank for their diet.
Specialized foods are not required but they will help promote shrimp health as well as breeding.
Leaf litter is highly recommended for shrimp tanks as it promotes bio-film and boosts survival rates of baby shrimp.
