Blue BOA Caridina

Blue BOA Caridina shrimp are a high grade pinto shrimp pattern with distinct cheek spots and full back cape. True BOAs will show a cape that runs cleanly across the entire back line along with visible cheek spots, giving them that bold look. Each shrimp will vary slightly in pattern, which is part of what makes BOAs so fun!

Our Blue BOA Caridina are carefully selected, and the BOAs produced from this line can throw a range of beautiful offspring. Offspring from BOA’s can sometimes show up as Blue Steel or Black Galaxy Fishbone Pintos. No matter what these shrimp produce, you’ll have amazing colors and patterns!

Please note that blue coloration is not guaranteed and often does not fully develop until adulthood. Juvies may appear lighter or less defined, with color and pattern improving as they mature
