  Americamysis bahia (formerly Mysidopsis bahia) for sale



Description: Common name: Opossum shrimp, Mysid shrimp, Mysids
We have used these shrimp in our Hippocampus zosterae breeding setup please see the video below: All shipments will have insulated boxes and contain heat packs. These are for UK delivery only please contact us if you are outside the UK prior to ordering.

Adult mysids range in length from 4.4 mm to 9.4 mm. Living mysids are usually transparent, but may be tinted yellow, brown, or black. Females are usually larger than males, and sex can be determined when a body length reaches 4 mm.

Mysids are small shrimp-like crustaceans found primarily in the Gulf of Mexico and the eastern coast of Florida. They commonly occur at salinities above 15-ppt and are found in greatest abundance at salinities near 30-ppt.

Stock cultures may be maintained in continuous-flow or closed recirculating systems. Keep in a small aquarium by themselves with an air-driven sponge filter. Mysid shrimp should be fed liquid Phytoplankton or live Brine Shrimp as food.
