I'd be interested in hearing more about shrimp life cycles and what to expect in terms of ''yield'. How much time it takes a batch of mature adults to produce a new generation fit for sale. At what age are shrimp considered to have reached their ''full potential'' in terms of profit. Although this might be a question for more advanced setups, I'd also be interested in culling techniques/strategies! Thankss love the channel!

You can buy used aquasoil. This is the best substrate for shrimp. It does not change the water parameters if it is more than 1.5 years old and it should be much cheaper. 10+ years ago i had some chinese version of aquasoil in my main aquarium for 2 years and then i transfered it to the shrimp tank. Amazing results. Since then i tried with ada and tropica and it does wonders compared to sand/gravel/crushed lava... 2 of those clay tubes for breeding L's per tub would also increase productivity + it would be easy to collect them - just take out the tube with shrimp inside. Cover with java moss and tie with fishing line.

mate thanks so much for this video. Looking forwards to follow up videos. Could you also include information about grades/culling does it matter etc etc in selling shrimp? I am just a hobbyist, but I started with 20 cherry shrimp for the kids, but I'm at well over 400 shrimp... and pooling into other tanks. I don't want to kill them, and I'm not sure what to do with them. Some have gone a touch orange, and I have started separating out the brownish blue ones to their own tank. I have a 'strain' which has a red head and tail, with transluscent body and legs with deep red feeding arms which I really like and have begun trying to breed more of.

In my experience, little and often is better than lots in one go. Maybe one or two small feeds a day.

Who are the buyers for these shrimps? If everyone is breeding thousands of shrimps a month, that really saturates the market and also each buyer now can make hundreds themselves.

There are three things you need to bear in mind. 1) new people enter the hobby every day looking for their first shrimp. 2) many, many people fail to breed shrimp or worse, kill their shrimp and want to purchase more. 3) the vast majority of hobbyist don’t sell their shrimp, they just let their colony get to a balanced point wheee the population regulates itself 👍🏻

@@jacquesvictor4232I’ve had one amano jump out of the tank out of 3 in my year of owning shrimp. I found him the day after I put them in so idk how long that took or why but the others don’t even leave the bottom of the tank even if the waters up to brim no lid etc. they’re not interested in leaving the water like he was lol. And I have an orange Sakura colony too that I never have losses with outside of some babies becoming Cory catfish food

Do you still breed for profit? If not why did you stop?

Hi. I don’t breed for profit anymore. The only reason I stopped was in favour of making RU-vid videos. 👍🏻

@@FishKeepingAnswers do you believe that it's still worth something getting into? Seems interesting not sure what the market is like in my area but cool none the less

I do believe it is still worth it, but I work full time, and it got to the point where I had to wake up 3 or 4 hours before I went to work to start packing the shrimp. It was starting to take over my life because we were so busy. 😞

Good luck with your channel. RU-vid is a grind. My only advice, you have a video titled All About Shrimps, but it’s just footage of shrimp, no information or advice. Make sure your video delivers what the title and thumbnail promise. All the best 🤞🏻
