In this video I will try to show you in just 3 minutes how to build super simple nano shrimp tank. Is this possible? Let's watch and see :) Because of the size and small complexity - I treat this as an experiment for my Neocaridina baby shrimp.

This was really fast and easy. It really took few minutes! Try this!

@trak957 Год назад

How could anyone not want to build one of these it's so cute and fun, fabulous job, my friend! :)

@AquascapingCube Год назад

Hi Tracy :) Thank you! Yes, I’m very happy with the result :)

@heartsonchannel Год назад

Didnt expect this could work! No airstone and tiny size tank. Would you mind sharing how much/often you feed and details on water change? I struggle with overfeeding, bluegreen algae, and keeping shrimp alive haha.

@AquascapingCube Год назад

Yes, it was kind of experiment. I feed only 2 times a week, very small amounts. No water changes, just topping the water that evaporates. This is still running, still doing good, and everyone is alive :)

3:17 With water.. Are you sure you put tap water and not DI water filtration system + shrimp salt + water conditioner + water test kit? Because if so, it's quite a big leap on price and size for the overall material. I've done that and both red shrimps dies, despite water changes (dechlorinated tap water) and proper temperature.

@AquascapingCube 11 месяцев назад

No, I only use tap water. Nothing else. This was the point of this build.

@phantum707 4 месяца назад

not 3 minutes.

@fish-chips980 2 месяца назад

3 minutes on setting up the tank, not growing the plants or acclimating the shrimp

@snackymcgoo1539 2 месяца назад

That sub straight you use, does it have nutrients in the pebble size granules? Like, is it just a custom mix of soil that a company shaped into pellets? Or is it just a man-made lava rock type of substance to allow for surface area for bacteria?

@AquascapingCube 2 месяца назад

Yes, according to the producer it has nutrients in it that are released over longer period of time. But often I use additional root tabs with it, just not in small tanks like this one.

@audrameyer9558 Год назад

I love this so much! So beautiful 😍

@AquascapingCube Год назад

@BOREDFU 3 месяца назад

2 minutes?!?! Really?!?! 🤯 Yet you have to wait two weeks for the plants to root properly and then you waited another 2 weeks for the tank to cycle? 😂 Longest 2 minutes ever! 😂

@AquascapingCube 3 месяца назад

Yes, I know :P But it was 3 minutes, not 2! :D And to be fair it was 3 minutes of work, and the rest is waiting ;)

@Ahuerta22 Год назад

Petco has all aqueon tanks half off till July 4th. Tons of really cheap nano tanks :)

@doflamingoisinnocent Месяц назад

stupid question but would this work if the tank was more of a rectangular shape but still same size

What kind of water should I use to fill and do water changes with? Also how often and how much of the water should be changed at a time? Awesome video. Ty very much.

@AquascapingCube 8 месяцев назад

Thank you! I just use aged tap water. And after few weeks I'm not doing any water changes, just topping what evaporates. Snals and shrimp are doing the cleaning and all is working just great!

@travsudz4544 8 месяцев назад

Ty for reply! I have a fish/aquarium store nearby. I cannot find any 5L glass tanks online sadly so I will try there. They also have tiny shrimp. I will try 1 snail and 2 shrimp. Less is more as they say :) @@AquascapingCube

@neelmanimatanhelia2827 Год назад

how long do we have to keep the lights on in the dry start method? is it 24/7 or few hours in day

@AquascapingCube Год назад

Hi, Only 8hr/day. Anything above 10h doesn't really bring any benefits in my view.

@neelmanimatanhelia2827 Год назад

@@AquascapingCube i do in gaps like 2 hours in morning, 2 hours in evening and 2 hours in night is that fine?

@neelmanimatanhelia2827 Год назад

and how many times do i have to water the plants

@AquascapingCube Год назад

It's not ideal. It would be much better to have one longer session, plants photosynthesize in certain way and just stop growing at some point after they are "done for the day" :P

@AquascapingCube Год назад

I water them when I visually see they are drying out. Once a day is totally fine, sometimes even once every 2 days. If everything is moist - you are ok! Just open the foil for few seconds to let the fresh air inside to avoid mold.

@neurosp 5 месяцев назад

How is it going after 10 months? Needed water changes? Did they breed ?

@AquascapingCube 5 месяцев назад

Yes, they breed in there and were doing very well. But there were so many that I had to move them to something bigger, so I replaced this tank with this one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-u2YgFjUdyyM.html . I was not doing water changes after few months, I was just topping the water that evaporated. Later this tank was used to keep Harlequin rasbora fry for a short time ;)

@gerrisimmons5549 8 месяцев назад

How do you maintain this? Frequency of water change? etc? Thanks 🙂

@AquascapingCube 8 месяцев назад

I don't ;) I'm only topping the water that evaporates. Never cleaning the glass, or making water changes. Clithon snail and shrimp are keeping it super clean and doing great.

hard to find Yokuchi JIban Soil, can you recommend any other easily available substitutes for substrates?

@AquascapingCube 4 месяца назад

It very strongly depends on where you live. Tropica Aquarium Soil is good and easy to get (but expensive), and UNS Controsoil was working for me as well.

@reborn727 4 месяца назад

@AquascapingCube I ended up going with fluval Stratum for shrimp, any thoughts on that brand ?

@valleymykel-mq7gw 9 месяцев назад

people underestimate how simple it is to do, evem without money at all. i did one with wild ghost shrimp, pond water, free rocks, river sand, and pond plants all in a pickle jar. Its wildly successful on the first day.

@kester1213 10 месяцев назад

Do you fertilise your plants after the 2 weeks?

@AquascapingCube 10 месяцев назад

No. They have more than enough nutrients for months. It will take a long time before ferts are needed.

@spacedoge5477 11 месяцев назад

Will they still breed in this small type of tank?

@AquascapingCube 11 месяцев назад

Not really. I mean there were babies but very little. Only 3-4 instead of 20

Not very often. Only at the beginning I was making small changes every few days. Not I just top the evaporated water, for shrimp only tank - that is enough.

@LorenzoBich-te8bj 8 месяцев назад

What about if i add a filter could i put a small fish?

@AquascapingCube 8 месяцев назад

No, not really. It's abouot the size of the tank. It's just to small for fish. I only use it for fish fry sometimes.

3mins and 2 weeks ?

3mins of work. 2 weeks of waiting :P Buy honestly, this dry start part is optional. You can just create the tank and then cycle it the "normal way" with water.

Hi. I have a 15x15x15cm cube. I am a beginner and i want to learn the basics of shrimp keeping. Any tips? 😅

@AquascapingCube 11 месяцев назад

Acclimation is everything. When introducing shrimp into the tank try to use drip acclimation. They hate sudden changes in water parameters. Stick to the basics, don't overfeed, don't do big water changes, introduce some botanicals into the tank (leaves etc.), create some hiding places for them etc. Good luck!
