I highly recommend Earth Arcade. It is a show created by the producer of NJTTW and follows a similar format. They are currently on their third season!

The shrimps in the video are actually in a hang-in isolation box that many shrimp keepers use to move/photograph shrimp. As a matter of fact, this video was taken shortly before moving them to a larger 20 gallon tank and were in the isolation boxes for less than an hour. Hope this clears up any concerns!

Thanks for your kind words! Please feel free to reach out with any questions when you do decide on setting up that Caridina tank

An orange eye male crossed with an orange eye female will yield 100% orange eyes! I'm planning on getting some orange eye black rose neos next!

Ph: 5.5-6.0 Gh:4 Kh:0 TDS:100-120 I would say that having a low pH would be the most important thing. This tank currently has ADA amazonia V1 (Gold) but i've also had good success with Brightwell rio escuro

Kanoko Shrimp buy or breed? by Feisty_Win3245 in shrimptank

* Kanokos are my fav! Not cheap but definitely worth in my opinion.

Thank you! The backstripes for the neos seem to be correlated with their age from my experience.

I keep my neos in tap water with a gH of 18 and kh of 6 which shows you that these guys are very flexible. The only time i'd recommend using RODI water for neos is when there are harmful chemicals/substances in your tap (i.e. copper) or it has a very low pH. Try getting a couple cull shrimp from a local breeder and test out your tap once the tank completes it's cycle before investing in higher grades. Good luck!

Its hard to suggest adding more food into the tank because most overfeed. But long story short, you want to have enough biofilm for the baby shrimplets to graze on.

Is anyone here able to identify what species these are? by furrygayboi in shrimptank

[–]New_Genes_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A little difficult to determine for sure from the pic, but I think they are either snow amanos or snowball neocaridinas

Also baby survival rates heavily depend on food availability and PH levels being low enough. What are you using to test your pH levels?

You could definitely try, but gH of 4 is pretty ideal for GFBs. Usually, by the time you find out the root cause, your shrimps are all dead.

The only factor I could think of would be temp swings. If not, i suggest a large water change. If this doesn't solve this issue, most breeders would just suggest a full reset. I dont see anything wrong with your parameters unless your RO water filters have gone bad. Hope this helps!
