The Shrimp Jungle: NEW Tank Setup for Neocaridina Shrimp (Step By Step Aquascape Tutorial)

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

This is my new shrimp tank setup for neocaridina shrimp with UGF filter. A really stunning design that includes a large plant selection. I’ve not done this method on my channel before and I’m very pleased with the end result. It’s going to look more beautiful in a few months when the plants have grown a bit more. Can’t wait!
TANK SIZE: 40X40X31(h) CM or 16x16x12.5(h) inch

    I only have 1 colony of shrimp, and they're Neocaridina. I use a sponge filter and a Hang on Back filter. I use the Hang on Back for Purigen and Bio Rings and a polishing pad. I like the idea of using a UGF box for the chemical filtration, but my shrimp really like grazing on the sponge filter, and I would hate to take that away from them. But it would be nice to only have 1 filter for the tank.

    Hi Nice video! I’ve set up at tank for neocaridina shrimps but made the mistake of using fluval stratum as substrate. My ph is around 6.5, kH is 0 and gH is 4 I have bloody mary shrimps in there and they are doing fine so far. Do you have any recommendation on how to raise the kH and gH safely without getting rid of the substrate? I want to get the right conditions for them to breed Thanks

    @@ShrimpMania ​ Thanks for your reply, may I ask you some questions ? I notice that you don't use CO2 and put Hemianthus Cuba and others "not easy" plant, do they grow and stay healthy without CO2 ? And it's seem that you don't have lot of algae during the first weeks, did you run the light at a really low level or do you have some tips to reduce amount of algae ? Or maybe you have clean the tank and don't show it in the video ? It's seem that you use a powerful light, but really small amount of algae. Thanks for the informations and keep up the good works, your thank looks really clean and healthy 😍 After seeing your vids and MD Fish, you made me want to try this method with compost aquatic soil for the plant👍

    Thanks for another great video! A bit of a different question: do you have any advice as to where I can get copepods to help with my tank's ecosystem? I only have one Caridina tank which I started 12+ weeks ago. It's fully cycled now, but I've not managed to get any copepods as yet. I used Qualdrop Multi powder, and tried using BacterAE, but still no copepods, which I'd like to have a good population of before I introduce the shrimp. Sadly I couldn't afford the powder from Shrimps Affair which seems to produce loads of copepods! Thanks again and hope you're well!

  • @ShrimpMania

    @ShrimpMania

    10 ай бұрын

    I believe that bacterial powder is only a food source for copepods and they come in the tank with the soil or plants they even can come from air. It might take a few months to see them in your tank and your shrimp would be OK without copepods don't worry about that

    Cheers mate! Sure you have to remineralize your RO water with any GH+ remineralizers first, salty shrimp gh+ for instants or any other brand. Make sure your Gh is at around 5-6 and It's better to use aqua soil in your setups to get ph close to 6 and you're good to go. Make sure you cycle and mature your tank first, you can put some fish for a few weeks also works to build up beneficial bacteria. Moss would help to increase babies survival rate. That's the basics to start with crystals if you manage to maintain stable parameters they'll breed faster than your cherries believe me😊

    You won't use a sponge filter? , I'm afraid that the UGF alone may not be enough for filtration, as always, a beautiful aquarium and professionally installed 😊
