The bee shrimp (Caridina cantonensis), is a species of small freshwater shrimp in the family Atyidae. It is native to Taiwan.[2] These shrimp are scavengers, and eat small pieces of decayed vegetation and algae.[3] Bee shrimp have a life span of about 18 months. They enjoy a temperature in the 70 to 78 °F (21 to 26 °C) range.[4] Many modern versions of bee shrimp are selectively bred for their characteristics.[5]
Bee shrimp are in demand as aquarium pets. In Taiwan and other areas with suitable climates shrimp farms have sprung up to supply Bee shrimp,[6] although they are more difficult to farm than other shrimp because their health depends on being raised in soft water that matches the pH of their native streams.[7][3]
