Reading today's numbers
Only one vendor currently lists Dragonblood Shrimp, so today's range ($15.00–$30.00) reflects that vendor's own listings rather than a cross-vendor comparison. A spread that wide is common for Neocaridina morphs and usually isn't the same animal at wildly different prices: grade is the usual driver, with higher-grade or selectively bred lines commanding more than standard stock. Pack size matters too — larger packs tend to work out cheaper per shrimp. When judging a price, the median ($22.50) is the better anchor than the low: the cheapest listing can be a large-pack price or a lower grade. If a quote is well above the median, check the vendor table above to see what grade or pack you're comparing against. Note that 2 of 6 tracked listings are in stock right now; today's stats come from the in-stock ones.

Price history
The per-shrimp market median for Dragonblood Shrimp has held steady across all 50 days we've tracked it. That's normal here: US dwarf shrimp prices hold still rather than drifting — genuine repricings are vanishingly rare across the whole index (we measured this across the whole market) — so today's numbers above are a dependable benchmark, not a snapshot of a jittery market.
