Neocaridina shrimp, also known as cherry shrimp, are a lot of fun to keep and breed. They are easy to set up, cheap to buy and you can make a profit from selling them online.
But they can have issues especially around breeding. This video is my top 5 reasons why you shrimp are not breeding for beginner keepers.
Covering diet, sexing, chemical fluctuations and issues with moulting, this video aims to help you rule out possible reasons why your shrimp are not breeding.
My favourite fishy stuff! (yes these are affiliate links :) )
Lights
Nicrew Classic LED - amzn.to/3fG3Uv6 - Traditional led light that's got a nice high output in a white/cool colour range. Makes plants look extra green.
Nicrew SKY - amzn.to/3Ktn45U - really nice light for natural looking tanks, also the one I use for filming.
Filters
Pat Mini - amzn.to/3fE1u0k - popular for a reason, just a superb little filter thats great for shrimp tanks and fish alike.
ASAP - amzn.to/3nBuytp - the old favourite and the one i return to most frequently.
Air Pump
AP-3 Kit : amzn.to/34UMA3q - Great little air pump, not a silent runner, but has been very reliable for me.
Tanks
Scaper 45 - amzn.to/3KBxG2H - a lovely high quality tank that comes with a super strong light, and a decent enough hang on back filter - perfect for newbies and scapers alike.
My filming stuff
Camera - Cannon 200D - amzn.to/354OLlc - nice camera, easy to use.
BigTripod - Manfrotto befree - amzn.to/3GLXDdj - pricey but super sturdy and can take being knocked over a lot by clumsy operators.
Lil' tripod - amzn.to/355WmQs - can't pronounce the name but it's been a good tripod for filming things on tables or when I have tanks on the floor.

I laughed when you talked about feeding. When I first got shrimp last year, I bought every shrimp food and dutifully rotated them. Meh results. When I set up a new nano tank (6.8 g) early this year for chili rasboras, I put shrimp in there and just fed them the tiny food I gave the chilis. No shrimp pellets or anything like that. Man, did those shrimp reproduce like crazy! They continue to do so.

Overfeeding is also a thing, that might be the problem with your main tank. I had that problem because I followed the shrimp food instructions, but I think those assume the shrimps live on that food alone, so if you got lots of plants and algae then they got more food then they should and that cause stress.

Timely. Right now I’m debating the pros and cons of a neocaridina/Betta tank. I’ll just go with gold back shrimp and chili rasbora.

Many breeders skip the insecticide issue. Most of household insecticide can cause breeding issue. So spraying insecticide indiscriminately you will have problem with breeding.

I've had my shrimp tank set up for nearly 7 months now and added 10 crystal reds. 4 are female and 6 are male now they've matured. I had 2 buried females but never had any shrimplets. No copper on my tank, I feed them a shrimp diet once a week and keep a catapa leaf in there for them to munch on, have a few live plants and moss, bog wood and use a sponge filter. I usually do a 10% water change once a week so parimeters stay stable. No deaths at all since I've had them. But I think the females must be dropping their eggs when they molt? I've literally followed everything to a T and I let the tank fully cycle for 12 weeks before I added any shrimp. I just can't understand what I'm doing wrong as they all seem healthy.

The only reason I want them to breed is their really expensive and I can't afford to pay that much for them every 2 years as I paid £75 for them and as they haven't got a long lifespan that's a lot.

I had this same problem for the first 7 months. I almost gave up on them completely. I stopped doing water changes for three weeks and suddenly I had berried females. I put off water changes and just topped up for the next month and started getting very few babies. Now I use a drip refill for water and I have about thirty babies in tank at the moment.

Water chemistry can change during water changes. It's small, but too quickly for shrimp. That was my issue anyway. I haven't changed anything else since. Went from 12 at start to about 160 or so in the past few months.

Hi Lauren you have a beautiful aquarium . Great reasons why shrimp are not breeding in a tank . Was the fish in the video a bluefin notho ( AKA ) killifish ? If it was can you let me know thanks 😊
@tinymenagerie
@tinymenagerie 2 года назад
Oh I wish! But sadly no, he's just a gardneri killie. I never see any of the more unusual or annual killifish for sale around here, only ever eggs on eBay which i haven't plucked up the courage to try yet.

In the molting part goes also that if the water hardess is is too low (for neocaridina) they wont be able to form a propper carapace and get stuck. (Kinda like when snakes get their skin stuck to their eyes or cloaca due to lack of moisture)

When I got my first ones last year, I put them into a seasoned tank without fish that wouldn't eat them. Still... no babies. At least, I didn't see any berried females. Started wondering if something was wrong. Took about 3 months, but all of a sudden, I started seeing little juvenile shrimp. I guess I just hadn't spotted the berried females (I have a heavily planted tank), and then of course, didn't see any shrimplets. If all your water parameters are fine, I'd say give them a bit more time.

Some of your shripm look like they have vorticella parasites!!!!
@ana007
@ana007 2 года назад
Yes. Those tiny worms on rostrum (where antenas grow from). It's Scutariella Japonica. it can be succesfully treated with no planaria. But remove snails from the tank first, beccause no planaria is killing them slowly too. If you want to remove parasite imidiately from infected shimp prepare salt bath and put your shrimp for a while in it.
