The origin of the Sakura shrimp still remains controversial - there are claims to primacy not only in Taiwan and Germany, but also in other countries of the world. The red cherry shrimp is so popular and widespread that it is possible that this morph was obtained at the same time in different places, both from hobbyists and large farms. There are also two points of view regarding the ancestors of these beautiful bright shrimps. Some believe that Sakura was bred exclusively from the Red Cherry (Cherry), others that other species and morphs took part in the crossing.
Like all shrimp, Sakura is sensitive to nitrites, ammonia and metals (copper) in the water. These shrimp like aquariums equipped with hiding places, and also have a large number of plants and mosses, on which they happily graze and rest. Achieving success in their maintenance and breeding is quite easy and within the power of any novice hobbyist. Sakura shrimp do well in a well-equipped aquarium with a good filtration system.
Sakuras simply adore algae on plants and pebbles. However, they will also eat anything that enters the tank as food. Most of the sinking pellets and other feed, spinach, nettle shrimp are eaten by both cheeks. In an aquarium with plants, they can go without food for quite a long time, fighting algae growth and keeping the aquarium clean. Since they are small, they do not need to be fed too much. Shrimp should be fed in small portions so that they can eat it over several hours.
