Retailer tanks you saw in the video are 35l, breeding 60l

The short answer - yes for caridina, no for neocaridina

I do nothing to prevent it. I only have it in one of my tanks and I have 18 tanks

around 10h a day, I do nothing to prevent algae

Man, for your info bactria live on the surface not in the water.

@@ShrimpMania take some surface too into new tank

@@Maria-mv1zn if you watch the video I used soil from the cycled tank

@@ShrimpMania then why did you wait for the tank to cycle? Because you should use water too

I made them myself

@@ShrimpMania oh okay what is the strip name that your currently useing I mean the configuration

@@afnaanameer9111 more info in this video - MY LIGHT: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hbBka8hnsLOanYE.html

I'm using Ro water for cycling my tanks then I adding salts before putting my shrimp in them. You can find links for ugfs in description

nope I don't

It's not many mosquitos where I'm base so I don't need to worry about them

Glad you enjoyed it!

Why not?

@@ShrimpMania I assumed you breed em for sale. Why do you remove so much algae? Isn't it a food for shrimps?

@@DelkaSable yes but they they don't like it. Takes forever for them to clean it. You can mix red and black shrimp it's nothing wrong with that. Like you mix red and black crystal shrimp. You will have more of the black shrimp in the end because black colour is dominant in shrimp

yes you right I misspoke

Sorry but you have to watch it again to find your answers I mentioned all of that in this video

@@ShrimpMania I must of been busy working, and never finished watching the video. Cheers. 😃

@ShrimpMania thank you very much

feel free to drop me pictures on email [email protected] I'll have a look

Glad you liked it!

Hey, the soil for Caridina is a big problem now. We still have ADA Amazonia ver1 for sale here in the UK but I spoke with many breeders and all of them complaining that is not as good as it used to be. I'm going to try to use ver2 in my next setup and see how it works. Yes the other brands not lowering the pH good enough I agree

Thanks for watching!

Hey, the blue cherry shrimp are for sale now. The link is in the description

Yeah, in my country which currency far cheaper than $. Still the pure red line (caridina one) sold for atleast 3$ each.

Yes the link is in the description

Thanks, glad you liked it

Yes he uses some special lava rock not the ordinary one

I feel your pain

Yea it can happen in the old tank that's mean it's time to reset

@@ShrimpMania what if I don’t reset and introduce some new shrimp to the colony think that would work ?

@@d.washington2394 The reason for reset is because your soil has run out of juice over time and stopped buffering the water pH

@@ShrimpMania even though my ph is good at 6?

@@d.washington2394 I would still do a reset if your shrimp don't breed well, there are not much options to fix it

around 12

Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it

Thank you Rick for you support👍😊

😂

I know it’s hard for you to keep caridina due to high temperature. Aircon would be the best option for you. I have one in my shrimp room incase of hot weather (very rare event in the uk)

Haha expensive to have the Aircon turned on 24/7 😅 Do you boil the Indian almond leaves before adding to the tank ?

@@refakmakeen5248 I normally soak them in the water for a day or two before placing them in the tank, you can use boiling water to kill all bacteria

Hey, thanks

As long as the water flows through there’s no reason it can’t work. But one of the reasons you use glass is so that you can see under the mesh part to see if your is falling through the cracks (especially in the later stages when your soil starts to turn to mud and more will get stuck in the grate) and you can also constantly monitor and see if your flow is consistent (usually I’ll shine a bright light through it and I’ll turn off the air to let everything settle and then I’ll turn it up really high and I’ll see all the suspended particles suddenly start flowing and I can see if there are any spots where less is moving through, if that makes sense)

should work

​@@Condoctucthank you, I thought I'd look out for demolished flow👍

I did it off camera

green dust algae that growing in the surface
