• Sulawesi Shrimp and...

  Captive-Bred Sulawesi Shrimp Coming Soon to Shrimp Cove UK 

  ✨ We're thrilled to announce that captive-bred (tank raised) Sulawesi shrimp will soon be arriving at Shrimp Cove! These stunning, vibrant  Cardinal shrimp are bred in controlled environments—not taken from the wild—making them a more sustainable and responsible choice for your aquarium ✨.

  🦐 Why is captive-bred better? 🦐

  ✔️ Stronger & Healthier: These shrimp are already adapted to tank life, meaning they’re hardier, more resilient, and less prone to stress.  Making them far more confident that the shrimps wont hide ❤️.

  ✔️ No Impact on Wild Populations: Choosing captive-bred helps protect Sulawesi’s delicate natural ecosystems and ensures future generations of these incredible species. Eco friendly shrimp here in the UK for sale at Shrimp Cove, the only way, the best way! 🥰

  ✔️ Easier to Acclimate: No wild-caught stress, just vibrant, tank-raised shrimp ready to thrive in your setup

  Keep an eye out—these beauties will be available very soon, and they’re worth the wait 🌿💧.

  ✔️Slow enough to never be late… or early

  ✔️ Ethically bred, so you’re protecting wild populations

  ✔️Like little underwater snails with monocles (probably)

  ✔️ Vibrant colours that pop in any tank

   

  ✔️ Excellent natural cleaners (and surprisingly photogenic)

   

  ✔️Reproduce easily, but not in a mutiny kind of way

   

  ✔️ Basically, the janitors of your tank...but cute
