Heren, Bedankt voor het delen van deze video en informatie! Zoals Ramon zei, "Minder klooien is minder doden". Ik ben een gelukkige volger van deze techniek. ❤
Really nice to se you neerd out on the same shrimp and life stuff,and the amazing healing power of aquarium/shrimping is what keeps me in the hobby/lifestyle,🌿🦐🍀😎👍
Brother Ramon, you’re famous now! Loved this video, happy shrimp brothers talking truths, fantastic positivity about the Caridina hobby, we love it too. Thank you Mark for giving happy space some screen time, much love from the UK shrimp brothers 🤟
Thanks for your kind words Tim, for me it wasn't necessarily my intention to become famous in Mark's channel. But now that this has happened, I should learn to enjoy it. Mark has developed into a truly caring friend, and I hope to share many more beautiful moments with him and his family. And of course I hope that I can help many more people with the knowledge I have acquired.😊
Both of these guys are amazing. i have been talking a lot with Ramon via Facebook, and he is a living encyclopedia of knowledge, he always wants to share is knowledge and he is very helpful, everytime i reach for any tip or advice. We need more people like this in the hobby. Thank you, to the both of you, for sharing the knowledge you have adquire. Best of luck to both of you!
Great video guys, not just for the shrimp keeping advice but the video had a really nice friendly vibe to it. I'm new to shrimp keeping and have gone from a 30L biorb which has caused me no end of problems, and learning opportunities, that is now thriving with about 100 baby blue dreams to being in the process of cycling a 200L tank to move some of the best ones into for a new colony. You and Richards videos have been where all my knowledge has come from and i'd like to thank you for passing this knowledge onto people like me
Hello Leon, thank you it was kind of a rushed video becuse weve had so much fun over the last couple of day doing stuff but it was nice to get Ramon on my channel.

Brilliant video Mark! Thank you and Raymond for sharing his tips! I'm going to do what he suggested with 1 tank and see how it's goes, when your topping up with RO are you remineralising? Or just straight RO?
Nice shrimps there. Side note as I currently cycle my tank for the shrimp. Today gee I saw a dragon fly larva , I managed to remove. Heard from others shrimp keeper claim if shrimp always hide means there are still have some hidden around. I check around so far no more. Have to prevent it dragon fly larva again appear? My tank is at living room.
@@MarksShrimpTanks Side note, come Dead Shrimp. Do you remove any dead shrimp if spotted or left it inside let other shrimp eat which some shrimp keeper do that whereas some don't as they worry might have disease don't want to take risk.
@@paulrothery7756 I faithful to boil now. All my botanicals. I had one pest issue and lost the entire tank. Though I am the one who always have shite luck. Good luck to you!
Great video! I wanna try the no water change method, but I don't use any ugf boxes. Does the no water change method work with only sponge filtered tanks too? Gonna buy me some Vin Blizzard food for sure. 30ml of Sera pH minus seams like alot for 300l rodi water. Wouldn't the pH go to about 3-4? Thanks!
@@olivier8761 Yes for sure 30ml Sera PH-minus on 300liter RO water. Then the ro is ph4.1 However, this is the only addition that leaves you with no dissolved substances and this measurement is worthless. You can only have a guaranteed measurement when the water comes together with the soil that is going to buffer. With the Ada Amazonia and prelowered osmosis i get a ph4.8 in the begin but after 1 year it is ph5.2 and is stay like that.
Mark... it sounds as though you've made significant changes to your shrimp-keeping methods. Are these changes reflected in your paperback book? Are you going to write another edited version of that book? Thanks for a great video!
but if you don't change the water, doesn't the TDS increase? I know that TDS does not automatically mean an increase in GH, but does a high TDS not affect the caridina shrimp?
@@MarksShrimpTanks I don't think it affects too much either, if it doesn't increase above a certain limit, that's what I'd like to know, from your experience, what is that limit? another aspect, what do we do with planaria? thicker substrate, at some point planaria will inevitably appear.... you can make a video to explain in more detail these aspects that have to do with this way of keeping shrimp, without water changes
I purchased your e book. 👍🏻 Fantastic information! Is there a place in the US to purchase oak leaf extract? I'm having a hard time finding it. If not, what is the best alternative?
I have blackbees in my tank. The tank is running for 2 1/2 years, at the beginning they bred like hell, but now i have bearly babys. It is a normal aquascape. What could be the reason for this?
Hello Yo, first thing I would check is the ph if its higher than 6.5 then that is your issue, the only real fix for this is a tank reset, if the ph is fine then maybe stop feeding for a while and make sure you have some leaves in the tank and see how you get on.
@@MarksShrimpTanks Ok thank you. My digital pH-Meter ran out of batterys, i did a chemical test and it showes 7,2 😬. I inject Co2 and the intern gauge is green, acording to this it should be 6,8. Stop feeding is a bit difficult, caus its a community tank (i dont know if this is the right english word for it). There are also 13 fishes inside. Im feeding very little, nearly nothing comes to the ground. Buteverything is the same as in the beginning, where theuy bred like hell. 🤷♀ Could it be bacterial contamination over the time? Its hard to suck out the dirt, caus there is a dense jungle of gras on the ground.
@@MarksShrimpTanks I did a chemical test again at the end of the day and it showes now 6,6. Is it a idea to put the caradinas in a seperat new tank and change them with neocaradinas. Are neocaradinas also so sensitive?
So 0 tds r.o. top offs when low and if peramiters below 90, 120, or 150 tds top off with desired number re mineralized r.o. water? Shrimpin ain't easy😢 hobbiest here not a seller. Thanks for the video. Said this before but i need to change my name to Mark. You and Mark Shelly make it look too easy, brother
@markshrimptanks if u do no water changes how do u get minerals back in tank.sorry im new to cardina keeping and would love no water changes but want to know how the minerals if no water change
It was so much fun to be there in your pleasuredome ❤
Such good vibes in this video, love seeing how these little waterbugs connect us from all over the world!

I can't imagine any other way of spending my day, because on days when things don't work out, I can also distance myself from it

Thank you so much Mark, we really enjoyed being received in such a warm way, I hope we can do this more often. Love your content💋💓💋
Brilliant video Mark! Thank you and Raymond for sharing his tips! I'm going to do what he suggested with 1 tank and see how it's goes, when your topping up with RO are you remineralising? Or just straight RO?
Straight RO Kaz, it takes a good breeding cycle before you start to notice a huge difference.
@@MarksShrimpTanks thanks Mark will let you know the progress 👍
Very informative, thank you for sharing!
You are very welcome
Maybe I will start my shrimp hobby again with this video. Should we set up the tank by laying active soil on the ground or with a ugf?
I use then both with suceed in the same tank😊
as Ramon says we both use both.
Thanks! I am saving this video. Very informative.
Great one :) Take care you two :)
Thank you
Amazing conversation, thanks!

Only real way is to cover the tank with like mosquto mess if thats how you spell it 😂
@@MarksShrimpTanks gee , guess I have to watch it more carefully daily to spot any...
@@MarksShrimpTanks Side note, come Dead Shrimp. Do you remove any dead shrimp if spotted or left it inside let other shrimp eat which some shrimp keeper do that whereas some don't as they worry might have disease don't want to take risk.
Hello Mark what food is recommended by Raman,appreciate if it can be named
Vin Blizzard regular , not the spinach version 😊
agreed to date its the best food Ive used.
Hello. Does he put Astaxantine and Glycozyme into Caridina tank?
No not one of those stuff
When adding the Almond Leaves is it better to put them straight in or boil them first?
I soak mine but i know lots of people that just add them straight to the tank.
Bymyself i use the plop and drop methode,just drop them in.
But iff you'r not sure you can soak them in Hot water for 30 minuts ant than use them.
@@paulrothery7756 I faithful to boil now. All my botanicals. I had one pest issue and lost the entire tank.
Though I am the one who always have shite luck.
Good luck to you!
