FAQ’s

What are Opae Ula?

·         Opae Ula (Halocaridina rubra), also known as Hawaiian Shrimp, Volcano Shrimp, Red Shrimp, and many other names, are an endemic shrimp found in brackish water ponds.

Where do these shrimp live?

·         The natural habitat of these critters is in the Hawaiian Islands only, which makes them endemic. They are found in anchialine ponds primarily on the Big Island, Maui, as well as O’ahu. These pools are a mix & saltwater from the ocean & freshwater from the underground lava tubes creating brackish water which is a mixture of both.

How big do these shrimp get?

·         The Opae Ula doesn’t grow much larger than ½ inch. You will receive adult shrimp. 

What do I feed my shrimp?

• Opae Ula eat algae that naturally grows inside the aquarium, visibly or not. There is no need to feed any additional algae to your pet shrimp once the tank is set and established. You will feed Ocean chill dried organic Spirulina at the beginning. This Is the perfect food. It's a whole food source loaded with ocean trace elements, antioxidants, vitamins, phytonutrients and minerals.

Can I use any kind of water? 

• Opae Ula need a special mixture of freshwater & marine saltwater to survive. The water in your aquarium should never be changed. To compensate for water loss due to evaporation, simply add distilled or bottled freshwater.

Where do I place my sphere? 

• Keep your shrimp aquarium away from direct sunlight. A location in your home that is away from direct sunlight and a source of heat or cold (such as air-conditioning) is best. Position them in a place where the temperature remains between 60F and 80F, without any fast fluctuations such as near a heater.
