Today we talk about one of my personal favorite shrimp: the crystal red (and crystal black) shrimp. These shrimp are surprisingly hardy for needing buffered water (Ph of less than 7). In this video, I go through everything as far water parameters, shrimp tank setup and the basic care for these beautiful freshwater shrimp. As a side note, Crystal Red and Black shrimp are also referred to as CRS and CBS.
Since this is shrimp Saturday, we are doing a special on Crystal Reds and Black on flipaquatics.com. We also launched the Crystal Shrimp Stater Pack which is also included in the special.

Great video. Real like how you talk about how to care for crystalline and black shrimp in easy to follow steps. Good information about water parameters, aquarium filtration, substrates, decor, plants and feeding. Great job on this video. Thumbs up for the camera woman / man :) It would be fun to watch a video on a different shrimp species.

FYI, "buffering" capability refers to the water property of how much pH will change when an acid/base is added, so it is incorrect to say that low KH has higher buffering capability than high KH. It's the opposite. Food for thought!

@simonenvy6563
@simonenvy6563 7 лет назад
He said in other videos that the tupperwares are just easier for when the substrate needs to be swapped out. Makes sense when you consider the number of tanks that they have to care for. Also said the tank size that works best for them is 20 gal.

for buffering substrates you shouldn't use KH remineralizers because it will exhaust the buffers of the substrate

If you had a 20 gallon long aquarium. Started with a neutral 7 pH with the water and then added 1.5 to 2 inches of Brightwell over the entire bottom as the substrate. What would expect the pH to be approximately after the tank cycles?. Again -Using distilled or RO water with neutral pH as the starting point? Thanks in advance.
@RomaAquatics
@RomaAquatics 7 лет назад
I just switched to Brightwell from Fluval. My Crystals and Blue Bolts are doing great with the Fluval, but my Taiwan Bees (except for the Yellow King Kongs) don't seem to be loving the Fluval.

If you don´t siphon, how come you bare bottom tanks looks so clean? I´m just starting a colony o red and yellow sakuras and only after 3 weeks the bottom looks pretty nasty with all the shrimp waste. My setup is 10 gallon with bare bottom a almond leave being hold on its place with half a clay vase. My filter looks pretty much with what you have at the side of the display.

I got 2 dwarf gouramis 3 Mm platies and 2 amano shrimp in a 10 gal. With 0 ammonia, nitrite, and nitrates with 0 aggression in the tank especially towards the shrimp and both my shrimp died in the first day I got them. I saw one swimming upside down and banging into everything and then landed and just layed upside down and died. Any idea why?

Can crystal reds live and breed successfully around red cherry shrimps? How can I get their babies to live longer? I'm new to this species and I'm keeping them in the same tank as the rcs? The tank they are in is planted and has driftwood. And I use tap water with seachem prime.i also drop in calcium chips for the shrimps and ramshorn snails. I think the calcium also increases the ph...doesn't it?
@haroutvartanian2915
@haroutvartanian2915 4 года назад
Reverse osmosis water drops down to 6.0 ph with Bee shrimp gh without using buffering substrate. Isnt that too low for crystal red shrimp? Should i use Salty shrimp gh kh? Another questions is, why is my ph under 6 with this product? Shouldnt it be 6.4?

Hi Joseph, do you feed any mineral additive foods? They may be dying due to failed malts if they don't have enough minerals in their food to form a strong new shell. Rob mentions shrimp king mineral. This is the product I use and is on Rob's website - flipaquatics.com/collections/our-top-shrimp-foods/products/shrimp-king-protein?variant=43121808964
