Please be aware: The Red Onyx can be mistakenly think they are chocolate shrimp. But they are NOT, you can see the dark red over blue base body if you shine a torch at them.

Because Red Onyx is blue base therefore with shipping stress, they will show blue on arrival. However they will colour back up

With its almost shiny polished appearance, our Red Onyx shrimp is a really cool and unique looking shrimp in your aquarium. If dark red Bloody Mary shrimp is not enough for you, then these Red Onyx is an absolute great choice. It is a mix between deep maroon red to dark chocolate brown colour.
