Very great video Ray. Keep them going.

I usually pay between $7-15 USD per shrimp, when starting a new tank. The most expensive shrimp I’ve purchased were deep blue bolts at $25 each. They started breeding within 4 weeks and breed blue bolts at a pretty high rate. Most of those are deep, but some are the lighter standard blue bolt. Not sure the exact percentages. They also produce some shadow pandas that have a very rich blue and like those just as much!

I suggest trying Malawa shrimp, they are very hardy caridina and great cleaners. Their appearance is closer to amano shrimp.

awesome!!

Beautiful shrimp my friend

Awesome video, any idea how long it'll take to go from wild form shrimp to ornamental style shrimp? I am keeping caridina formosae as reference

From my experience since I know this ornamental shrimps till now, to be honest if may I am, the most beautiful shrimps which amaze me "when I see them by myself" Is red bee from Japanese farm/breeder, I don't say others is bad or something like that, but I see different focus which make Japanese can really amaze me and other hobbyist, while the other enjoying looking for new color and pattern, some Japanese really focus on the quality which results on bold colors, thick, and even bigger. I see the same with their koi fish.

Do you use tap water for all your shrimp tanks? Since the vancouver water parameters are perfect

I've kept ghost shrimp and had a self-sustaining group in a community fish-tank for a year or so. Most I've paid $8/shrimp for Painted fire-red cherries @ local pet store. Current ones I have were about $3.50/shrimp...mediocre/high grade. The Skittle shrimps are mostly very young juveniles and range from high to low grade. I'm in my first go around of keeping a shrimp only tank...and My shrimp had shrimplets 3 days after arrival. Shrimplets are about 8 days old, and are prevalent in the 5 gallon planted tank. With the right lighting you can just barely catch glimpses of color starting to show up on their mostly clear bodies.

Great video bro. Most I’ve paid for a single shrimp is 100$. Never again 😅

55 AUD each for Juvie metallic black snowflakes T_T, but they are so pretty.

Hi there, I did not understand why shrimps are sometimes dropping their eggs. Could you please tell me more?

My Most expensive Shrimp was for 180€. It was a Blue metallic Boa.

No difference at all when they are dead
