Have you heard about the most comprehensive book ever written on Cherry Shrimp? It includes information on how to keep, feed, and breed them, and it's written by my good friend Richard from Fishkeeping Answers. 👍 Check out my affiliate link here: bit.ly/3QNTr3O

I adore living in your shrimp life. It is so healing.

Hey Mark, that brown buildup is probably bacterial biofilm or iron deposits. It could affect the shrimp's health, so it might be a good idea to give it a scrub sometimes. Great videos bud 😊

I did and its been cleaned out, I am not sure I will use tapwater now.

Love the new informal videos. Have to tried putting a house plant in your tape water tank? There might be just enough nutrients in it to keep algae alive.

Yes, if making any water changes when I get water in my mouth, I spit it out. I keep in mind that the water in my tank is usually cleaner than any natural water source. Sure it could be drunk but it's also full of waste, I know swimming in the outdoors the water is worse, so if I was thirsty, I might swallow, but in a emergency, that would be drinking reserves.

Is it wrong that I’m eating shrimp cocktail for lunch while watching this? 😆

No hahahaha , I used to love shrimp cocktail the fresher the better and slightly chilled.

My back is the same. Bottom of my spine is jacked. But at least we're still walking.

Hi. How many gh per water change at 300 ms? How much GH do you have in your tanks? You make cool videos, I always watch them with interest.🙂

I got a jug pump off Amazon and put a sponge on the end I press the button and it drains but my tanks are much smaller

Great setup mate 😀 i would think high Iron may be good for the plants ?

You would think so right, I didnt mention it in the video but I am getting a mains filtration kit added to our water supply in the house, so the filters will be visible on the shrimp room.

😂 ewwwwww definitely spit!😊

Unfortunately, I switched out all my UGF boxes back to sponge filters. Constantly clogging and terrible water movement.

Yeah the only downside, some of my most successful tanks have been with this type of setup, its good to have a back up sponge in the tank.

@@MarksShrimpTanks Yeah, I still keep the active soil in the UGF box for easy changing of soil with just a little soil on the bottom of the tank but use the sponge filter.

Stop sucking syphon it's rank AF. I fill my hose at sink with clean water. Cap ends with thumbs or kink it trapping water. Plop one end in tank, the other to drain. Wholla! No more syphon roulette. Can submerge hose in tank instead of sink if short hose too. Ps MarksBarebottomtanks may gain search yield though lol

Between 6-8 gh, dont bother about reading gh/tds/cinductivity in the tank it doesnt mean so much.
