Extreme Blue Bolt shrimp rank among the most coveted top-tier variants in the Taiwan Bee family. These extraordinary shrimp are celebrated for their stunning all-blue coloration without any white markings. The depth and opaqueness of their vibrant blue hue are key factors in assessing the quality of Blue Bolts. Furthermore, their color can undergo shifts, displaying different shades of blue based on their mood and environmental conditions.
While Extreme Blue Bolt shrimp can coexist with other Taiwan Bee variants, it’s recommended to keep them separately to preserve and elevate their extraordinary coloration. The optimal approach is to house the most visually appealing specimens together, allowing their striking hues to truly shine.
