Dark Green Jade OE (Green demon)- neocaridina davidi

The Dark green jade Orange Eye (OE) "Green Demon" Shrimp is a highly desirable, selectively bred variety of the dwarf freshwater shrimp, Neocaridina davidi. It is celebrated for its unique combination of intense color and a rare genetic trait.

Coloration: These shrimp exhibit an intense, vibrant dark green hue across their entire body. This green is typically more profound and rich than that of the standard green jade. The animal may appear black in lower light due to its intense dark green color. High-grade specimens are fully opaque and solid Green.

Defining Feature (OE): The most striking characteristic is the presence of Orange Eyes (OE). The normally dark or black compound eyes of Neocaridina shrimp are replaced by a bright, fiery orange or golden color. This contrast between the deep red body and the glowing orange eyes is what earned the shrimp its dramatic nickname, "Green Demon."
