Neo Shrimp Soil by Aquario is the perfect medium for keeping freshwater shrimp species. Like Neo Soil, Aquario's Shrimp Soil also consists of two layers and many air pockets within the granules, allowing beneficial bacteria to thrive and serving as another form of filter media. Using it helps to increase the retention of shrimplets and improves color formation while strengthening the shell for full-grown shrimp.

Specially formulated, neo soil helps to deter ammonia buildup and also aids in the growth of aquatic plant species favored by shrimp such as ferns and mosses. It will also slightly lower pH. Containing the necessary properties, Neo Shrimp Soil helps to provide the necessary water parameters for the health and beauty of freshwater shrimp species.
