+1 in the title means that it is a free additional shrimp that we include when you purchase to cover for any Dead on Arrival during transit. We are not going to charge for any additional shrimp that is sent to customers above the amount customers purchase. 

Orange Pumpkin Shrimp Coloration

The Orange Pumpkin Shrimp is a stunning freshwater shrimp variety, selectively bred for its vibrant orange hue. Its striking color adds a brilliant contrast to aquariums, making it a favorite among shrimp keepers and aquascaping enthusiasts. This eye-catching coloration stands out beautifully against planted backgrounds and dark substrates, enhancing the overall aesthetics of your tank.

Orange Pumpkin Shrimp Size

Despite their small size, Orange Pumpkin Shrimp make a noticeable impact in any aquarium. They typically grow to 1 to 1.5 inches, with females generally being larger and more robust than males. Their compact size makes them ideal for nano tanks and community aquariums, where they explore every corner while adding movement and life to the aquatic environment.

Orange Pumpkin Shrimp Behavior

These shrimp are peaceful, social, and highly active. They spend their time foraging for food, grazing on biofilm, and interacting with their surroundings. As natural scavengers, Orange Pumpkin Shrimp help keep the aquarium clean by consuming leftover food and algae, making them an essential part of any aquarium cleanup crew.

Orange Pumpkin Shrimp Care Requirements

Caring for Orange Pumpkin Shrimp is simple, making them an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced shrimp keepers. They thrive in well-established, planted tanks with stable water conditions. A pH range of 6.5 to 7.5 and a temperature between 65°F and 72°F provide the ideal environment for these resilient invertebrates.

Orange Pumpkin Shrimp Compatibility

These peaceful shrimp can be housed with a variety of small, non-aggressive tankmates, including other Neocaridina shrimp, small freshwater fish, and invertebrates. However, they should not be kept with large or predatory species that may pose a threat. Their gentle nature and communal behavior make them an excellent addition to planted and community aquariums.

Orange Pumpkin Shrimp Diet

To maintain their bright orange coloration and overall health, Orange Pumpkin Shrimp require a balanced and varied diet. They naturally feed on biofilm and algae, but their diet should also include high-quality shrimp pellets, algae wafers, and blanched vegetables like zucchini or spinach. Providing a diverse diet ensures strong shells, healthy molting, and optimal breeding conditions.

Orange Pumpkin Shrimp Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Do Orange Pumpkin Shrimp change color?

While Orange Pumpkin Shrimp maintain their vibrant coloration under optimal conditions, stress, poor diet, or inadequate water parameters may cause slight fading. Providing high-quality food, stable water conditions, and a dark substrate can help maintain their bright orange hue.

How often do Orange Pumpkin Shrimp molt?

Like other Neocaridina shrimp, Orange Pumpkin Shrimp molt every few weeks as they grow. During molting, they shed their old exoskeleton to allow for new growth. It is important to avoid removing molted shells from the tank, as shrimp pets consume them to replenish essential minerals.

Can Orange Pumpkin Shrimp live with Bettas?

While some aquarists successfully keep Orange Pumpkin Shrimp with Bettas, it largely depends on the betta’s temperament. Some Betta fish may view shrimp as food, while others may coexist peacefully. Providing ample hiding spots can help improve survival rates in a betta tank.

Great product if you know what you’re getting.
Size: 4-tier, Style: wall mount&floor mount, Size: 4-tier, Style: wall mount&floor mount
It’s a great product if you know some details before you purchase. Specifically, for how much it cost it’s a great product. After assembly it is sturdy and will hold anything you’ll be displaying on it within reason. Speaking of assembly, it’s straight forward and intuitive if you’ve assembled other things such as a basic end table. What you should know: it does not come with instructions. It’s not hard to figure out but if you’re someone that needs instructions this product isn’t for you. That being said, if you see what you bought it’s not hard to look at the picture and assemble it. It does not come with the shelves. If you can’t buy them premise or make them then this product is not for you. Lastly, and this part is important to me, not all the pieces are straight after assembly. I used a level to mount the product on the wall and make each shelve straight. However, due to the factory produced screw grooves it is not perfectly straight. If you need it perfectly level looking this product is not for you. Refer to my pictures and you’ll see how the left bar looks crooked even though I mounted it level in every way. However, it gives it a more rustic, modern farmhouse feel that we wanted. Otherwise, a great product. I am still very happy for what we paid for. I would recommend the product and buy it again.

Great product!

This is my second time purchasing these shelves. They are easy to set up, come with all the screws, brackets, and drywall anchors (if needed). I definitely love the quality, look and versatility. Being that my ceiling is slanted I couldn’t mount them from there but easily mount them to the surface beneath the shelving. My husband loved my idea and how they turned out! Highly recommend!

No Instructions - Easy to build and study
Size: 4-tier, Style: wall mount&floor mount
I ordered 3, and my wife loves the look of them. They seem to support a decent amount of weight. I supervised my 7 year old (55 lbs) as she scaled a single shelf bracket up the wall after it was mounted, without the planks. You do need to have some amount of handiness to be looking at buying as it does not come assembled, and does not have the wood planks with it. A little learning curve I had. Keep the rods only hand snug, not tight, snug, and then as you put it up to the wall adjust as needed to get the heights and widths right to the opposing shelf. There is also only 8 pipe brackets to hold the shelves down (2 per shelf) and I did not realize this at first and assumed I had 16 (4 per shelf). I had to go back and fix.

Game changing storage!
Size: 4-tier, Style: wall mount&floor mount
I love the shelves. I got to use my own wood which was a reclaimed piece that I found and sanded and then stained. I'm so proud to see them on the shelves. It got so much clutter corralled from around the room and put in one place where it all looks good displayed together. The support pieces are very good quality and I found this to be very good value for the price. I'm very happy with this item.

Good all around, some imperfections on threads difficult to screw together
Size: 4-tier, Style: wall mount&floor mount
I received a complete product as advertised, it's a solid steel design with everything you need to mounted included. One small issue I encountered is that the pieces screw together but they wouldn't screw all the way it felt difficult and possibly if forced the steel might crack. Unfairly enough other pieces did completely screw in. So it's probably because of imperfections on the threads.
