I'll take the Omega one algae wafers and put those in a coffee grinder and grind them down to just a super fine powder and then I sprinkle that into the tank. That has really helped my babies and tank flourish while being able to use food I already had. It's a method I saw on Mark's shrimp tanks. Beautiful shrimp and tank.
I found a large chunk of cucumber keeps my baby shrimp very happy 😀
My local stores have very limited options for shrimp food (I like to support local stores over on-line when I can), so for feeding my baby shrimp I've taking to grinding up some of the Fluval Bug Bites shrimp formula into a coarse powder to put in the tank. And I have algae wafers that I cut in multiple small pieces, so the adults have less to fight over, and which also leaves an amount of dust and very tiny bits besides that I sweep up and toss into the tank in hopes it serves the baby shrimp well. And the occasional dash of other food sources ground up into coarse powders (the last of my betta fish died recently, and I have plenty of betta foods still around, so tiny bits of that gets ground up and goes in every other day or so). Combine that with whatever naturally occurring food is in the tank from the live plants, and, well, I still don't have a very high baby survival rate, but I suspect access to food is not the limiting factor.
Anyways, grinding up bigger foods into a powder is a useful tip for all kinds of purposes. I had a betta early this year who injured his mouth (among other things) and couldn't eat normally, but when I powdered his food to spread on the surface of the water, he would skim through it and seemed to get enough in that way.
Thank you for the uploads you have inspired me to start my own UA-cam channel 🙏🏽 I now have 25 Red Cherry Shrimp and a few are pregnant 🤩✨
I usually just throw in some pellets on their feeding dish and the adults and baby shrimp all feed fine the pellets break down pretty easy. I’ve been doing this and I haven’t seen planaria ever since.
I look forward to your snail video because I've been wondering if the snails compete for food in the shrimp tank. Thank you for taking the time to make this video. :)
Thank you for this informative and tutorial on Shrimp survival.
Subscribe because I like the humble tone of your show even though you have tons of cool items you’re not bragging but rather just sharing your knowledge. Rock on!
first time watcher, and a shrimp keeper. I love your videos man! Im definitely giving you sub!
Awesome video Nathan.
Especially like the part about the importance of all the algae on the walls of the tank.
Never thought I would be trying to grow algae. Lol
+David Ingram Thank you!
The snails in my tanks showed up probably from a hitch hiker on a plant…and I have so many now that they swarm all over the shrimp food and even the adult shrimp can’t get any! I’d been led to believe they would self-regulate so there would never be too many, but I don’t see it happening.
I took a lot of ideas from your videos.Specially the filter and floaters. I gotta say i think my shrimps are doing really well..thanks for the videos
I feed a pretty big verity of baby foods, Bacter AE, shirakura shrimp baby, lowkeys double speed, pollen and blended spinach. One thing I am missing though is algae because I have so many floaters and my lights are bad. Awesome advice and even better music choices.
+TOMMAMOOSE There are so many foods you can feed babies. I'm probably going to get Bacter AE and text it out.
That’s a lot of shrimp for sure 😮😃
Beautiful shrimp.
loved the shrimp jam ! thanks for the tips
Great vids as always! I was wondering what type of plant those three in the middle foreground are at around the .46 mark. I have been looking for something like that. I have dwarf sag but wanted something with a bit finer blades. Keep up the great work!!!
Blyxa japonica
Soo Shrimp Breeders thank you for the reply!!!
Looking forward too that snail video.
great video and explanation! can't wait to see the next video!
Awe man your shrimp are so healthy! Great tanks!
Great video,thanks Nathan.👍🏻
What is the amount of Walt in that lamp
i love snails too. a lot of people think them as pests which is kinda sad
How often do you clean this aquarium and how ?
Cause of the baby shrimp
Do you use co2 in your tanks, your plant look very well
Great video as usual! how do you keep your snails from escaping? I have a tank with a couple of shrimps and some people say that snails are essential. But im afraid that they will crawl out since i dont have a lid. Would appreciate some guidence, im quite new to the shrimp game
i can't lose videos like these, must subscribe just in case.
What kind of floaters are those with the long roots
Water lettuce or dwarf water lettuce
Nice video. Thanks.
shrimp can survive on algae wafers easily. i had a 10 gallon with hundreds. gave them wafers and the babies eat them fine.
AlexVids yes but the tend to make the water stink really bad no matter what brand I’ve tried. Any suggestions on brands that don’t smell/cloud the water ?
@@Anna_Beth_ don't feed too much, u should remove uneated food after 2 hours and re-feed the second day
I use GlasGarten Shrimp Baby and Bacter AE in my shrimp tank.
Hi I I’m wonder what that moss type plant right infront of the glass bowl
how do you keep your tank free from mosquito larvae ?
I'm trying so hard to raise these guys. I get them all line and only a couple survive during shipping. I've almost gave up. There's no one local to buy from??😢 What should I do??
I cant find the Snowflake shrimp food. Nordic Pure right? I was thinking of getting the Nutridust, but the Snowflake food is harder to find. Still some expensive stuff! Ive already spent a fortune on my shrimp including Bactor AE and Shrimp Dinner (which the shrimp dont seem to care for). But my shrimp love cheap wardly shrimp pellets I give my mystery snails. Sure doesnt feel healthy for RCS tho. The shrimp also love crab cuisine. I do worry about these products affecting my water quality. Oh! And I have tons of tubifex? Worms and they are great cleaners as well. Not sure where I got them.
If you have algae and biofilm on all surfaces, so why do you feed by artificial food?
Nice 👍🏻
My shrimp gave birth yesterday and I saw a couple but now I can’t find any is that normal
Amma's Lotus yes started with 5 have over 100
What type of filter do you have? Is it a shrimp-only tank? Do you have floating plants?
@@bec3057 I’m good now I just was impatient. Started with five and now I have hundreds and I have sold hundreds.
What kinda plants is that you got on the ground??
CAN YOU PUT
LINKS FOR THE FOOD 🧸👍🏻
Guess not :/ I been wanting to see what snowflake food he uses
Can shrimp be fed nori?
I m here hoping someone can tell me if my kuhli loaches or even spotted hillstream loach could be killing any. I saw my first babies ever and they are barely bigger than a common grain of sand. So like a kuhli loach is like a big ass dragon and the spotted hillstream loach could prob kill em just by accidentely smacking them while going around doing the butterfly. I can't make sense of either of them not killing my baby shrimp lol. Also instead of snails in my main tank like in this video, I went with the route of rotifers and moina which looks kinda magical when the lights turn on lol 🤣👍
White colour substrate.. what is that.. what is the name of that substrate..?
all my baby cherry shrimps died after 3 days, even tho I had them in an incubator, with some moss and protected from any predators and other shrimps in the tank... I don't know what happenned, could you tell me why please?
Where is good place to get the Malaysia Trumpet snail 🐌?
I’m a new fish keeper.. I only have one tank at the moment. I have 2 blue velvet. I realized that they were male and female when I noticed the girl had eggs! I’m moving them to their own, shrimp-baby safe tank away from the fish. How much do I feel them? Since I have so little right now. Idk how many babies the mom will have in one batch.
Amma's Lotus
Yes! I moved them to a planted 5 gallon aquarium. I currently have around 30-40 of them and we have 2 pregnant females at the moment 👍💕
My man what is the food company name links ?? Something ?
G G pure Nordic
What is the name of the powdered food?
Can a shrimplet lives with neon tetras?
Do you use CO2 for domestic plants?
I do not....only in my 75g fish only tank
Hi bro, Whats the name/brand of the food ?
What is the food company name and link?
nice video. always appreciate the info. i wonder if you could help me figure out why my baby shrimp are dying off. i have a 5 month old, 3 gallon nano low-tech shrimp-only tank, set up with some small drift wood & Japanese stones (sorry forgot the name), lots of plants, on a 1/2" bed of aquareon substrate and sand. i started the tank with guppies, then 2 month in, switched to all cherry shrimp. some of the first badge of cherries came home already berried; so slowly a second generation of cherries began to appear. i now have about 10 adult and 20 teenage cherries thriving. last month i introduced some berried blue bolt and berried orange females; i immediately started to see some babies swimming around, however they disappeared after a few days. eventually all the mamas became un-berried; but no babies in sight. the same thing happened last week after i put in some berried blue-blots and rilis; i started to see some babies initially, now they're all gone. there're no predators in the tank. in the past some baby shrimp would travel to the back compartment of the tank where the filter is, though not this time. i'm increasing feeding Bacter AE from 1 to 3 times a day, while adults are being fed Shrimp Dinner and Mineral Junkie once a day. here's the water parameters: ph 7.1, kh 4, gh 12, ammonia/nitrite,nitrate 0, tds 260, temp 72-75. sorry for the long message, any
It's one of those things that sounds like a water issue. The caridina will like the 6.5ish ph....anything higher will cause them to unberry and have a hard time.
@@SooShrimpBreeders appreciate tge reply. Sorry i made a mistake saying blue bolts in my posting, i meant blue dream; so i actually have all neo-caridinas in my tank. I heard anywhere from 6.8-7.5 for ideal breeding ph. What’s your recommendation? And is that the most important parameter to focus on? Gh? Tds? I also heard to not chase numbers, so I’m pretty confused as a starting hobbyist. Thnx
How often do you put your scoops in?
Once a week maybe
Is there any downside to snails in a shrimp tank?
bobfal they can overcrowd the the tank eventually. I usually just put them in another tank if the population is getting out of control
Soo Shrimp Breeders thank, much appreciated
Rod's Shrimp Live! I have a few assassin's in another tank, that could be an option 😉
I like snails. I like to feed my snails cucumbers and carrots.
This trumpet snails sold like food. Possible to buy huge amount almost for nothing.
light is debunkd already like 10 times.
can we put different color of shrimp in one tank?
Depends on species and types of species
woooo
tq
but its look like similar species although different colour
Nazaruddin Othman there are Caridina and Neo Caradina shrimp.
They will not interbreed so you can mix those tanks without worry about your colors changing over generations
So his Red Crystals will not breed with his Bloody Marys. But his Blue Rili and his Cherrys will interbreed resulting in blue and red offspring that have coloration that will not be as solid/bright then if he let them breed constantly they will get progressively browner.
They will not result in blue + red = purple shrimp
is hard to keep clean the substrate?
Where is the intro? I only watch these videos to see that pretty face.
+TOMMAMOOSE haha well maybe next time.
Apply to caridinas
If my tank is covered in algae do I need to feed the baby shrimp?
Cody Plant probably. The shrimp will eat the algae but they need a variety in their diet because you wouldn't want to eat one type of food your whole life!
Do you use CO2 in your tanks?
No I do not
Do you not remove on purpose all those "pest snails" or you just want them around ?
I think he leaves them on purpose because they eat the leftovers from the shrimp
my ex used to call me snowflake
feelsbadman
Bacter ae?
