Thank You! 👍

Thank You 🙇‍♂️

Thank You 🙇‍♂️ Appreciate it

Thank you! I appreciate it. I just attached it to a spiderwood and let it grow. I have some just laying on the bottom too.

Subwassertang 😊

All you have to do is wait 😁 If you check out my first video. That is what it looked like over a year ago. Thanks!

@@ShrimpTanksStuff I checked it out, wow!

Thank you! No color fading with the lighter substrate. Can easily spot the ones need to be cull too

@@ShrimpTanksStuff I was lucky and got a pretty straight line of blues, that would look really good on sand. Thanks for the info.

Thanks 🙇‍♂️ I use sony a6300 on wide angle shots. Any close up is shot on my smartphone (s8) + clip macro lens on amazon.

@@ShrimpTanksStuff omg cannot belive s8 can do this great shots. Thats very good to know! Thank you 😊

Thank You! I appreciate your support🙇‍♂️

Yes, I do water change few days before adding shrimps

Benibachi minorekuton powder & bee max. Minerals and enzymes beneficial to shrimp overall health. It is optional, but used it since I started shrimp keeping recommended by a friend. You can read more about it.

I do WC weekly now about 5-10%. For gravel vacuum, Once in a while like once in two months 😅 Might do more for this tank coz of the light substrate.

Shrimp Tanks & Stuff I asked cuz I have the exact set up. Green jades on white sand and eveytime i VAc I feel I just push the shit into the sand more and it becomes dirty

Assuming it is Neocaridina. It depends, If you dont want them to lose their solid color & get brownish wild type grade then No. If you dont mind and just want to enjoy a variety of colors in one tank then Yes.

I had mix all kind of high rate of neocardina in my tank year ago then now i see all is Black rose or so! One awhile red and blue come out but not the yellow! Barely seen the wild style or maybe just bit of lucky!

I have the same question

Claimed to be beneficial to aquatic critters and added boost of oxygen.

Yes, I personally think it is a great size to start a colony especially if you're new to shrimp keeping. Water stability is key.

When doing water changes, Drip the water back in slowly. and more small water changes are better than fewer big ones for stability.

I probably just forgot to put the tube back 😅 I am now using just tap water. However, I used to mixing ro water with minerals for neocaridina too for quite sometime.

Thanks & Sorry to hear about your colony. I use them sparingly and not have problems yet 🤞

@@ShrimpTanksStuff hope you never face any problem like i did.

I want some green when I see those pics of the best green possible.... But I know I would be lucky to get even one of them that color.

I have snails and shrimp together, I think they're pretty safe tank mates. Have you had trouble?

@@langenandanimals Snails and shrimp occupy the same niche. Both are scavengers. Snails will often outcompete shrimp for food, their breeding will get out of control (especially when you use Bacter AE), and thus will be a constant source of ammonia in the tank. Simply put, they will prevent the shrimp from thriving at the level they could. The shrimp would breed more, have more successful pregnancies, and have more survival of baby shrimp if he wouldn't put those stupid snails in there. Not to mention they are an eyesore.

@@Lloyd_Christmas11 I think they're adorable but I do understand the out breeding issue. My tank one tank is endlers, cherry red shrimp, and a bunch of volunteer snails and the shrimp and endlers are still breeding well but it's just a display/pet tank Im not "breeding" for breeding.

I can understand why you do not like them. I personally put them on all my tanks. I usually dose bacter ae weekly(grain size) when shrimps are in and have not any problem.Their population will only get out of control if you overfeed. As they are good at eating left over food shrimps does not finish( If I cannot get it out). Overtime ofcourse they will multiply and as shrimp population grow, I simply pick some out from time to time. I have no problem getting shrimp population to couple hundred in a 15g and you are right can probably have more without the bio load of the snails. Depends how you keep up with maintenance/ water change. Having snails in your tank is a preference. Do what works for you. :)

@@ShrimpTanksStuff for sure. I've only had my snails get to out of time once in 3+ years
