Keeper notes
Breeds readily in freshwater; rili pattern variable, cull for consistency. A blue rili Neocaridina with blue coloration interrupted by a clear mid-section. Easy care: stable hard neutral water, mature planted tank, algae and supplemental food. Copper sensitive — avoid copper meds. Keep apart from other morphs and cull for clean rili banding.
