When breeding shrimp for profit, what is the best size tank? check out my website markshellyaquatics.com Music: Wind Leaves Musician: Eugenio Mininni URL: mixkit.co/ License: mixkit.co/terms/
Lol yeah, back to the grind. Wanna talk about sucking after 3 months of being all about tanks and youtube for the most part. Super blah over it to be honest. Best thing to happen though, figured out a lot of stuff, especially being better at youtube stuff.
@@timwingell4730 no, usually when I reset tanks I just dump the sand out and put in new. All depends on the tank, its purpose and what kind of plants I am growing. Tanks that are just for shrimp and moss have very little substrate in most cases.
Oh yeah? I personally don't do tanks smaller than 20 gallons. Just sticking with neos now, goal is to be the best I can at neos, still feel like I am learning more and more. Most people think I'm crazy going to hard at neos lol. But its what I love.
A 40 gallon breeder of blue dream neos is my dream, that or a 50 gallon lowboy. It’s just cooler to me to see lots of tiny shrimp in a tank much larger than them.
Do you ever gravel vac ? Since my population has exploded, I stopped gravel vaccing (not that i did it that often anyway) becuase of babies .... Java moss is also out of control. I used to take it out to trim, but now I dont want to take it out of the tank cause of babies.. any suggestions ?
I never vacuum, just weekly water changes about 20 to 30%. Put some tank water in bucket, shake off moss really really good in tank, put moss in bucket, check it for babies for a couple days and take out what babies you see. Its not perfect, but its the best way I've figured out so far.
Very very few, you can see a few in the video, and most of them are my fault frim getting a few of the wrong shrimp in wrong tank switching plants and stuff like that mostly.
I've built a 2 level tank in a 20 gallon. It has a raised platform so you have the full floor footprint on the bottom and around 75% of that floor space on the raised platform. Lighting and sponge filters on both levels. Just waiting to find out what problems I've created with the design 😂
@@MarkShellyAquatics I have underwater blue and white led lighting, one light under the platform lighting the lower level and one above lighting the top half
@@MarkShellyAquatics anyway I can send you a pic? Would appreciate some feedback on it. I'm setting up 2 more tanks this week and I'm undecided if I should do something similar again. I've only had the shrimp in there a month or so. All good so far but early days
Not sure about very bad, I am not familiar with corydoras, but I know there are many different kinds, I reckon the bigger ones eat more shrimp and the smaller ones might not even eat shrimp.
What about them? Snails are a vital inhabitant of any planted aquarium. They can get to be too many when too much food is fed, so when I get more than I like I manually remove them. It is pilo moss
