Dead shrimp after water change? Dead cherry shrimp overnight? Did you had any problems like that in the past?
I’ve had that issue and unfortunately I never did figure out what was causing it. I just kept doing regular small water changes like 10% daily until my random die offs stopped. Been a couple months since that happened and I never did figure out why, but I lost probably 10-15 adult shrimp one or two a day for about a week and then it stopped and they’ve been healthy since . No clue I wish I had more information
@@jordynjones855 have tha same problem , and i find that Potasium in high portion can kill shrimps, but i dont werif it in 100% in 2 days i've stop givig potasium do aquarium and its allready bether . now i need to figureout wht they have problem with droping shell , im adding ca+mg for shimps and still they have problem .
Mine are starting to do the same. 1-2 every few days. I do small water changes weekly, no overfeeding . Water is stable , I only use special fertilizer , and have sooooo many plants. 0 ammonia, nitrite . 10~20 nitrate (drops super quick from plants), pressurized co2 (20-25ppm) , only guppies and shrimp, nerite snails, and otocinclus catfish. 55 gallon. I remove about 9 gallons of water a week and replace with well water buffered eith salty shrimp gh/kh plus to a gh of 6. I don't get it. Don't wanna lose all of my shrimp. Those bastards were not cheap.
What a great video, very true and useful! Thank you to this content!
I'm glad you liked it! 😁
I enjoy your videos and find them very helpful. Thanks!
Thank you! It's very nice to read :)
Awesome video. Very informative.
Thank you! 😊 Glad you enjoyed it!
Careful with Betta, some will ignore (adult) shrimp, some will be somewhere in the middle and some will hunt shrimp, snails and smaller fish. I heard Scarlet Badis (Dario Dario) can be kept with adult shrimp, but they hunt anything they can fit in their mouth. I keep one in a tank with Pea puffers, because there were planaria (ignored by puffers) and maybe I will add Amano shrimp (not sure about Cherries).
I can also confirm Neocaridina can live together with dwarf cichlids under certain circumstances and reportedly even some larger cichlids (angels), but it's tricky. I had an accidental colony of Neocaridina with a pair of Ramirezi cichlids in 84l tank, heavily planted with lots of spaces to hide, but during summer when I couldn't always keep up with maintenance, feed the fish regularly and with some heatwaves thrown in, the whole colony dwindled to nothing. Also with a predator in the tank, most shrimp were translucent, black or brown, despite starting as Cherries.
Yes, good points. With Bettas it's always tricky. They have very different personalities and there are no 2 identical fish when it comes to their characters :)
I now agree with you on not having a big water change. I did it with 70% and lost a few shrimps. I did a water change because I keep danios, platy and mollies. I now plan to move them separately. I wish I had seen this video early, it's in my watch later yet I haven't watched it until now. Thank you for your advice, I really appreciate it!
Great! Glad it was helpful!
Hello! Love the new vid. Im thinking of getting some cherry shrimp for a 16 gallon, with white cloud minnows. Do you think I can keep it unheated as long as it doesnt drop under 63 degrees farenheit and is very stable. It might get to 63 in the winter, but in the summer its usually 72+. I still have another concern. Do you think they might climb out or jump out of curiosity? Like if acclimation was right, water parameters right, everything right but they did it just to explore? Do you think i can keep lidless if i go 1.8 inch or more below tank top.
63 is a bit low for them. They will survive, but you will be at the edge on what they can handle. Just you have to be sure to transition them VERY slowly (for days!) if they were kept in warmer water. They can jump, but not because of curiosity ;) They will jump if they are uncomfortable, scared, feel bad etc. But I keep all my shrimp in lidless tanks with no problem.
@@AquascapingCubethank you so much for all the help. So basically in the coldest of winters it might reach 63, but thats super rare so like it will always be around 67-72. And i will ensure they do not jump out of any other circumstance other than being curious
Nice informative video. Thank you.
What is that plant the shrimp is on, during the first 7 seconds of video?
Thank you! This plant was: Lobelia Cardinalis mini :)
Very nice vid!
Thanks!
Cute fences!
Hi. Nice Video 👍🏻
In min 6:39 what is that on the Blue shrimps Head?
Thank you! Those are flat worms called Scutariella japonica. They are not that dangerous to shrimp and are not killing them directly, but still annoying. They can be killed with quick salt bath or medications.
Witam super piękne krewetki pozdrawiam podziwiam miłego wieczoru życzę
Dziekuje! Udanego weekendu :)
I fucked up it molted and is swimming like a lost ofin
At the beginning of the video you tell us to acclimatize them for just 1 hour and that we spent weeks building the tank, so 1 more hour isn't a big deal. But at the end of the video you tell us to put them in quarantine... So that's another 40 days.
I can’t keep betta with shrimp. They get eaten.
Yes, it happens :/ It really depends on the character of specific bettas.
Did you get rid of the betta or the idea of having shrimps? hehe
@@CeceliPS3 neither? I just got more tanks.
@@jordynjones855 oh
@@CeceliPS3 yep! most of my betta are female and in an established sorority so I only have betta in 3 tanks out of 12, I keep a couple 5 gallon shrimp only tanks and then they’re in most of my others as well, the betta just ate all of them in their tanks lol
