Hymenocera elegans – Captive-Bred Harlequin Shrimp in France

Hymenocera elegans, also known as the harlequin shrimp, is one of the most fascinating shrimps in marine aquariums. With its white body adorned with pink and purple patterns, it offers a unique aesthetic in a reef aquarium. This version comes from a controlled French breeding, ensuring optimal acclimatization without wild collection.

A Very Specific Diet

This delicate crustacean is strictly specialized in consuming starfish. It refuses any other food, even common frozen or live foods. To ensure its well-being, it is imperative to regularly provide it with starfish (e.g., Linckia, Fromia, etc.).

Do not feed this shrimp with other invertebrates or food scraps. Without suitable prey, it will quickly deteriorate. Therefore, it is essential to ensure you have access to a stable source of live starfish.

Maintenance Conditions

  • Minimum recommended volume: 100 liters
  • Ideal temperature: 24°C to 27°C
  • pH: 8.0 to 8.4
  • Moderate water movement and rocky decor
  • Calm area with recommended hiding spots

Why Choose French-Bred Hymenocera elegans?

  • French-bred specimen: more robust and better acclimated
  • Fascinating behavior and rare aesthetics
  • Reef compatible if starfish are present
  • Does not harm corals or fish

Hymenocera elegans is an exceptional shrimp that will suit experienced aquarists with a stable tank and regular starfish sources. Being French-bred, it is more suited to aquarium life than wild specimens.
