Descriptions

하와이 붉은 새우 또는 화산 새우로도 알려진 오파에 울라(Opae ula)는 하와이에 서식하는 작은 새우 종입니다. 그들은 일반적으로 하와이 제도의 얕은 조수 웅덩이에서 발견되며, 담수와 바닷물이 혼합된 기수에서 번성합니다.

Opae ula는 독특한 붉은 색을 띠는데, 이는 혈액에 산소를 운반하는 데 도움이 되는 구리 함유 단백질인 헤모시아닌 수치가 높기 때문입니다. 새우의 수명은 상대적으로 길며, 일부 개체는 야생에서 최대 20년까지 산다.

Opae ula는 적응력이 뛰어나며 저산소 환경과 높은 산도를 포함한 광범위한 조건에서 생존할 수 있습니다. 그들은 또한 무성생식도 가능합니다. 이는 한 개체가 새로운 군체를 시작할 수 있음을 의미합니다.

Opae ula는 수족관 애호가들 사이에서 인기를 얻었으며 종종 "피코 리프"라고 불리는 작고 독립적인 생태계에 보관됩니다. 이러한 설정은 일반적으로 기수, 모래, 암석 및 식물로 채워진 작은 수족관 또는 컨테이너로 구성되며 최소한의 유지 관리가 필요합니다. Opae ula는 관리가 덜 필요한 애완동물이며, 주변 환경에서 자연적으로 자라는 미생물을 먹고 생존할 수 있기 때문에 먹이를 줄 필요가 없습니다.

전반적으로 오파에 울라는 하와이 문화와 자연사에서 특별한 위치를 차지하는 매력적이고 독특한 생물입니다.

Overview

Transform your aquarium into a thriving Hawaiian ecosystem with a colony of 100 Opae Ula (Halocaridina rubra), commonly known as Volcano Red Shrimp. Native to Hawaii's rare anchialine pools, these fascinating shrimp are celebrated for their vibrant red coloration, remarkable hardiness, and ability to thrive in self-sustaining brackish water habitats.

A colony of 100 shrimp creates a truly dynamic and natural display, offering countless opportunities to observe grazing, social interactions, and colony development. Whether you're establishing a dedicated Opae Ula aquarium, building a large ecosystem project, or creating a breeding-focused habitat, this colony size provides an excellent foundation for long-term success.

Unlike traditional aquarium species that require frequent maintenance, Opae Ula are known for their simplicity and resilience. With proper care, they can live for decades while requiring minimal feeding and intervention, making them one of the most rewarding aquatic pets available.

Product Story

Hidden within Hawaii's volcanic landscapes are anchialine pools—unique ecosystems where freshwater and seawater naturally merge. These isolated habitats are home to Opae Ula shrimp, one of the world's most resilient and fascinating aquatic species.

A colony of 100 Volcano Red Shrimp offers a closer glimpse into the natural behaviors that make these shrimp so extraordinary. Their larger population creates a more balanced ecosystem, greater activity throughout the habitat, and increased opportunities to observe breeding and colony expansion.

For hobbyists seeking a long-term, self-sustaining aquatic environment, few species offer the beauty, simplicity, and longevity of Opae Ula shrimp. This colony size is ideal for creating a vibrant ecosystem that can be enjoyed for years to come.

Care & Setup Guide

Prepare a properly mixed brackish water environment using marine minerals.

  1. Allow the habitat to cycle and stabilize before introducing shrimp.
  2. Acclimate the shrimp gradually to their new environment.
  3. Include natural surfaces such as lava rock or coral rubble to encourage algae growth.
  4. Position the habitat in an area with indirect light.

Ongoing Care

  • Feed only occasionally when supplemental feeding is required.
  • Maintain stable salinity and water conditions.
  • Avoid sudden environmental changes.
  • Never use copper-based treatments.
  • Encourage natural algae and biofilm growth within the habitat.

Ideal Conditions

  • Brackish water setup
  • Stable indoor temperatures
  • Low to moderate lighting
  • Minimal filtration requirements

    Consistent water parameters
Why Shrimp Ecosphere stands out

Developed using real science

🌿

Virtually Zero Maintenance

Requires no feeding, no water changes, and no filtration, as the ecosystem maintains itself through a closed biological cycle

Designed to live over 20 years

Opae Ula rank among the most long-lived shrimp on the planet, with ecospheres documented to last over 20 years.

🌴

Native Hawaiian origin

Originating in Hawaii’s volcanic anchialine pools, the same ancient environment they have adapted to for millions of years.

GOOD TO KNOW

Questions? We have answers

They need very little maintenance compared to many aquatic pets. A stable environment and simple care routine are usually enough.

With proper care, Opae Ula can live for many years in a healthy, balanced ecosystem.

A small starter group is usually best. You can adjust the number depending on the size of your ecosystem.
