Simple Shrimp Tank

[ddlz60]

dont waste a tank on fucking SHRIMP!!!!!!!!!!!!

[175myles]

Kinda deep just for shrimp.

[AesirSovann]

do you breed them? how? just live them there and theyll give birth?

[XcxXcxViperxcXxcX]

U must take 2 of them 1 more in the Left

[suiteangel45]

How big is that tank 4 galons?

Oh and how many red cherry shrimps should i have in a 1 gallon tank cause im afraid if i buy a female it will give birth to many babies.

[omega7arts]

Breeding shrimps is hard, not many succeed, even with fish. The easiest are guppy's.

[kwozemodo]

@omega7arts cheery shrimps breed like rabbits aslong as the water conditions are survivable.

[omega7arts]

Wow, never knew that!

I would like some now xD Then I can sell some back to my LFS or give to friends :D

[vett3l0l]

@suiteangel45 dont worry, you can easily sell the little ones for like 1dollar each

[Yebutou]

what light are you using? im relatively new to planted tanks and was wondering if growth depended on wattage alone or if there was a certain spectrum that the light had to emitt. thanks

[Sypha14]

6500k spectrum is good for viewing plants I think, as it brings out the green more. A t5 bulb is good, but I'm no expert :D

[monkynutzuk]

im gonna call you bubba! ;P

[lxxFlamesxxl]

lmao

[AesirSovann]

do you need to clean shrimp tanks?

[d2jsp911]

we don't have to feed them? just grow the Taiwan moss or whatever moss for them to eat?

[mangisda]

do you need special lighting for that kind of moss?

[iamnotapie8]

you need filter heater maybe light tank moss fissidens moss is probably da best but im not the expert

[gateopenope]

hi how do you take care of shrimps in tanks so that they will live and that the female lays her eggs what do i need to do can anyone help me thanks i have a tank and a filter

[hiddenThecakeisalie]

Cherry red shrimp are so small. I have a 10 gal, which i'm positive is good enough for, like, 3 cherry shrimp

[hiddenThecakeisalie]

lol. Meant 13 cherry shrimp

[TheRebelMonkey]

nvm didn't see this

[TheRebelMonkey]

you can have way more than three

[purx3ranger]

[CaDiLaCxPiMp]

Check the internet (Google(.)com-Ghost shrimp tankmates)

[victorrockspeng]

are the shrimp hard to take care of? and do you need co2 for the moss?

[manta965]

no the shrimp are not harde to take care of but hard to fing anything but ghostshrimp and the moss does not need co2

[imfromhellas]

what type of soil did u use in this aquarium??and what kind of plants are they?

[rotiprata01]

I use planting soil purchased from the LFS...

[nothinglim28]

[mattbudnick]

[manta965]

algie

[meklo361]

Hey I got a shrimp that has eggs anyways I could get them when they hatch you know nuch about that?

[mockoron]

何これプレモス？

[Firemajic]

ok maybe i'm just an epic failure but every time i try to grow moss i get all this fuzzy brownish black stuff growing all over it and i have to take the actual moss out so i don't have all the fungus growing in my tank.

[hypacalyps]

if you have fungus in your tank it is an epic failure and u need to just start over with no fungus and just dont let it get contaminated

[Firemajic]

oh sad. disappointed. that's too much work.

[RAWfart]

Maybe its part of the process at first o.O

[golomasterg]

how do you get it sooo green? wat watt bulb u got? Great vid..

[catblanket14uk]

my shrimp i bought early 2004. they have amazing talent for survival : keep your head down and happily eat shit. they ll take over the world someday mark my words.

[wantsome480]

Cool clump of moss. I tried growing some spikey moss in a 5.5 gallon but everytime it ended up coverd in algae. Just to satify my curoiusity what kind of light is that and watts? I pulled my hair out over my failed attempts.

[greendruid87]

use fluorescent light. the wattage depends on the gallons your tank can hold. the rule is 2-3watts per gallon:>
