  • This was NOT expected! I went shopping in Toronto, found what I wanted and tried to take it on the plane. It didn’t go well!! Also, I was given a $100 gift card that I can’t use, so I’m giving it away in this video!

    Wow! I can't believe TSA made you do that, glad the shrimps made it back to your place safely in 100mls of water lol
    Our family was glad to meet you in person Joey, stop by anytime you're around the area!
    Maybe we can host an event next time!

    Wait until you have a very healthy colony of multiple age groups then I would suggest 1 male guppy/endler. If you have a thriving colony 100+ the a betta or a scarlet baddis but you really have to have a very thriving colony for those. You could also add pygmy corries khuli loaches sometimes like to crawl around bonsai trees

    Don't add a Betta as they are predatory and will eat all the shrimp. The problem with endlers, they'll multiply like rabbits. Which could be a good live food for the rest of your fish but still...

    Like others have said adding fish risks them eating the babies and stalling your colonys growth. However I would suggest if you did add fish to the nano tank maby a pair of sparkling gouramis. They are tiny and you should have enough hidding space for baby shrimp with all the moss. And might even get the pair to breed.

    I think cherry shrimps are only able to become berried after shedding.
    Once they become too big, they don’t shed anymore and they won’t become berried. The fire reds you have are already at a decent size, so hopefully they will still shed.

    Maybe take the snow-balls out if they breed with the fire-reds they likely result in diluted offspring, maybe even revert to basic mucky green-brown wild type.

    Only shrimp safe fish is otos I believe, my brother has cories and chili rasbora that snack on shrimp. Once they get the taste of a juvenile it's over for the rest haha. Also I'm not sure what you feed, but stay away from hikari sinking wafers. Had massive issues recently with hydra that comes from it, talked to other aquarists that also had same problem. Fine with tanks that have fish that'll eat it, but shrimp won't touch them.

    Only shrimps, not of fear of them being eaten, but shrimps need clean water to populate. Fish waste is then not to beneficial.
    I've had Neocaradinas Bloody Mary with Guppies and Coridoras for years but the shrimp colony doesn't grow. I don't think the fishes eating is the problem.
    A Betta is a 50/50 chance also, might work or a slaughter.

    Do not add any fish if you're planning on growing your colony. Even tiny nano fish will eat baby shrimp. You should also know better to add a small sponge filter to play it safe and keep water parameters stable. You'll certainly grow more shrimp with filtered water.
