Red Rili shrimp are very similar looking to their red cherry cousin but have a transparent band around the middle of their bodies. They’re essentially the same shrimp in all other aspects, really a Rili is more of a grade of Cherry shrimp than a separate morph.

Just as with Red Cherries, they belong to the Neocaridina species which is sometimes known as hard water shrimp as they can tolerate relatively high GH and KH levels.

A fully grown adult will also get to around 2 – 3 cm in size.
