== Anatomy and Sexing == ''Neocaridina davidi'' are a sexually dimorphic species. Males are typically smaller and less colorful than females. Females are typically larger, have wider tails for carrying eggs, and display a richer, more opaque coloration.<ref name=":6">{{Cite web |title=Identifying Male and Female Cherry Shrimp |url=https://www.shrimpscience.com/articles/sexing-dwarf-shrimp/ |access-date=2025-03-10 |website=www.shrimpscience.com |language=en-GB}}</ref> On the upper section of the female's body, on the "shoulder", the developing eggs on the ovaries may be seen in more transparent shrimp morphs. The shape of the ovaries drapes across both sides of the shrimp, giving rise to the nickname "saddle". The presence of a "saddle" indicates a female that is likely ready to mate.

Some of their coloration expressed in the exoskeleton of ''N. davidi'' may result from a specific mixture of the products produced by chromatophores; xanthophores (yellow/orange), erythrophores (red/orange), iridophores (blue), leucophores (white), and melanophores (black/brown).<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Lin |first1=Shi |last2=Zhang |first2=Lili |last3=Wang |first3=Guodong |last4=Huang |first4=Shiyu |last5=Wang |first5=Yilei |date=June 2022 |title=Searching and identifying pigmentation genes from Neocaridina denticulate sinensis via comparison of transcriptome in different color strains |journal=Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology.
