Lysmata Wurdemanni NZ

The Lysmata wurdemanni , also known as the aiptasia eater , is a peaceful, beneficial cleaner shrimp that reliably eats Aiptasia (aiptasia) . This makes it a true problem solver for saltwater aquariums . Our shrimp are bred in-house , strong, healthy, and already adapted to life in an aquarium— not wild-caught!

🌿 Advantages of our offspring:

• 🐠 100% aquarium accustomed and food-resistant

• 🌍 Environmentally friendly breeding – no extraction from nature

• ⚔️ Effective against Aiptasia

• 🤝 Peaceful towards fish and corals

• 💧 Ideal for nano and reef aquariums

⚙️ Keeping conditions

• Temperature: 24–26 °C

• Salinity: 1.022–1.025

• Food: Frozen food, flake food, detritus, aiptasia

• Size: approx. 3–4 cm (adult)

• Behavior: sociable, better in small groups (2–4 animals)

💡 Tip

Introduce the shrimp slowly and ensure they are acclimated gently . If the infestation is severe, it may take some time for them to find all the aiptasia – patience pays off!
