Description
🦐 Orange Eye Black Rose Neocaridina – Rare German Line (Michael Häsler)
These are the true Orange Eye Black Rose Neocaridina, also known as “Black Demons” for their intense dark body and glowing orange eyes. This is a rare authentic OE gene in Neocaridina—not yellow-eye, not hollow-eye, and definitely not Caridina. They descend from the original German line known for exceptional color stability and breeding consistency.
Why They Stand Out
🔥 Deep jet-black to midnight-blue bodies with bright orange eyes (true Neocaridina)
🇨🇦 Extremely rare in Canada—maintained only by a few dedicated breeders
🧬 100% display orange eyes and carry the OE gene
🐣 OE × OE pairings produce 100% orange-eyed offspring
✅ Beginner-friendly care—same diet and hardiness as Cherry Shrimp
Want to incorporate the OE gene into Blue Dreams, Chocolates, or new custom color lines?

When first shipped, OE Black Rose shrimp may appear dull gray, dark brown, or bluish-black due to travel stress and reduced pigment expression.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
🦐 Are your shrimp safe for beginners?
Yes! Many of our shrimp species—especially Neocaridina like Cherry Shrimp—are great for beginners due to their hardiness. For Caridina shrimp, we recommend stable parameters and soft water setups.

Yes, we offer a Live Arrival Guarantee on all shrimp orders. If your shrimp arrive dead, just send us clear photos within 2 hours of delivery and we’ll issue a refund or replacement. (Depending on the shipping method either 50% or 100% will be refunded)

Yes! If weather falls below 15C we strongly suggest adding one from our store. We also monitor weather forecasts and may delay your order if temperatures are too extreme for safe delivery.
