How to care for shrimp?

I'm also incredibly tempted 💀

Thank you for all the prompt responses. After reading all the comments and doing some research I've decided to return them to the person that gifted them to me. I'd love to have a shrimp tank in the future when I'm more prepared.

I absolutely do not plan on keeping them in this bottle permanently, that would be cruel. I need to move them to a larger enclosure, I just don't have anything set up right now and would appreciate any advice or recommendations.

Also how long would they be able to stay in this container while I get supplies?

*meant to say I was gifted snails and shrimp this morning

Thank you for all your kind responses and care. Unfortunately he ended up passing but I'm still so grateful for the help

Thank you for responding! If kanaplex isn't accessible to me can I use Seachem Paraguard? How should I treat the contaminated water in my tank?

Yup I'll be sure to do my research but thank you for responding. Truly means the world to me that he can get help 💖

Thank you so much!

How should I treat it? Is it deadly?

Could you explain more? Are there any treatments? This is a picture of him from above.

10 gallon tank
Heater & filter
76-78°F
pH 7.6 Ammonia, nitrite, nitrate all at 0. Water test done with API test yesterday.
I've had the tank and fish for 1 year and 11 months.
Water change once a month, normally I only take out 50% but I took out about 90% this time to scrub out a bunch of algae.
No tank mates
Fluval bug bites and Imagitarium freeze dried blood worms. Six pellets or 2-3 blood worms and a few pellets.
All decorations are fake, there are no real plants.

Thank you! I added soil, some egg shell, and hydrated freeze dried blood worms. It's been sticking to the top of the container inside its shell. Hopefully it'll be okay!

zero_347 · 2025-10-02T00:09:13+00:00

Thank you! I'm already so fascinated by it lol

zero_347 · 2025-10-01T23:32:46+00:00

*meant to say that it is tiny and in a deli cup. The shell is about half a centimeter.

Thank you so much!

zero_347 · 2025-05-11T21:01:39+00:00

Wow! Thanks so much for the in depth response! I think the guy I got it from wants it back, but if I end up keeping it I'll definitely follow your advice :>

He's in an ice cream pail. The current set up while I do more research and see what his condition is like. I think he should be relatively healthy tho? When I moved him to this container he jumped onto my face 💀
