There are two types of shrimp: pretty shrimp you want to thrive who jump out of the one little gap in your tank's lid just to spite you, or a boring clear shrimp that's lived at least 3 years longer than it was supposed to purely because it knows you don't want a tank anymore but not enough to kill the shrimp to get rid of the leaky old thing.

At my pet store they told me, that feeding to much protein can cause them to grow to fast so they have trouble moulting and die. Turns out my 5 man shrimp crew (neocaridina) had to much left overs from my kuhli loaches and grew in record time. Calcium deficiency was also part of the problem.

@@jaynecollett7619 & Lyn This is what I did, start watching all of FishShopMatt's videos with the kiddos now. Then on black Friday buy all your non living supplies (1. You're going to want that extra money you save for the plants. 2. I got an internal filter because if I messed up I want the water to stay IN the tank) then set it all up and add the plants AND the magic API juice and a snail or 2. Wait 6 weeks, Then the fun part! I wanted 8 Neons, so I asked for 12 because I figured some would die, I have 14? I asked for 3 Bloody Mary shrimp, I brought home the 3 and a clear hitchhiker shrimp. I now have probably 4 dozen in there. The research and plants are the key! I hope you do it! It will make amazing memories with the kids! Good luck!

I've got cherries, amanos and a vampire shrimp with my newly added betta fish.. The water parameters must be spot on because my amanos are breeding like wild rabbits which apparently is quite rare for that species of shrimp.. I normally check the water parameters with a tester kit every so often and take a little of their water out if need be to just clean the filter.. So far they've been doing swell and even my male betta hasn't been following the voices in his head that tell him to eat every one around him so I'm hoping I can keep that luck 😂

Axolotls definitely need substrate! Sand is their natural substrate. NO GRAVEL due to their poor eyesight they could ingest it when eating and that can lead to disaster. Also at minimal a 20gal tank. Too small of a space is detrimental to them so nothing below that. Edit to add: When I say sand, I don't mean coarse sand.
