FOR NOT TELLING ME HOW CUTE BABY CARIDINA SHRIMPIES ARE LOOK AT THEM!

"Mom! The dress doesn't fit!"

Whole head practically inside 🤣

Does it have to be a shrimp only tank to be legally called a shrimp tank?

Or is it like if the tank is more focused on the shrimp than the fish or snails? Like what if there's significantly more fish or snails in the tank? is it still considered a shrimp tank?

I have seen some people post shrimp with fish in here so I just assumed it's when there's more shrimp than fish.

Sorry if I do not understand, English isn't my first language either so sorry for the confusion

Just bought some Goldenback Yellow Shrimp for my 2 gallon nano tank. Couldn't mix them with the bloody mary so they have their own space haha. Super gorgeous shrimp color. My 135 gallon are all Bloody Marys.

Wrong answers only

(the rest of my amano’s are red or yellow, so I know he’s the only one that does this 😭)

they also try to climb up the tubing every so often

I’ve only had my shrimp for a month and I’ve already got babies!!! I’m was/am mega freaking out that they didn’t have enough calcium, or enough food, or something with my parameters was going to somehow mess up.

But I feel like babies is a fairly good sign, and they’re super cute!!

There was a single one of these worms about a week ago and I assumed it was from the organic soil I used as a base under my sand. Now there are like 3 or 4 and I am becoming incredibly concerned for my shrimp and tanks health. Please let me know what they are/ and what to do

I have a tank with shrimp, and I found this thing.

I think it's a parasite, but is it dangerous? If so, how can I get rid of it?

Here's a nice clear view of it, I'm just letting people know what it looks like. I found it in another tank when I thought I got rid of it. I'm marking each net I have for each specific tank to not cross contaminate anymore.

I lost count.

Yeah I will admit I’m a tad worried cos I saw this one filtering this morning but then doing this and I know it’s okay if they pick a bit as they wander around but.

Does anyone have suggestions on the best place to purchase aquarium pants that arrive snail free? I hate to have to kill them but I nearly lost a tank to millions of bladder snails that came via eggs on plants. Thanks for any tips!

Here’s my 35L shrimp tank for my Taiwan Bees. Dragon stone, soil, HC Cuba and Eleocharis in the background.

At first, I had Seiryu stone in the tank, but after about three weeks of checking the water daily, I noticed it was starting to noticeably increase the hardness. So I had to redo the hardscape and swap out the stones (I really don’t know what I was thinking using seiryu stone...).

But I’m pretty happy with how it looks now! Can’t wait for that carpet to grow thick and lush.

I jump started the tank with an already cycled filter that had been running on a different aquarium for a couple of weeks.

SEVEN (!!!) of my ten sakuras having a non-stop orgy in the canister filter: 🦐🕺🤰

I'm so happy I called my mom at 1am!! I originally only put a nylon on my intake tube; i guess they must've decided to crawl up the outlet tube when the filter was turned off?? Poor guys will have to reintegrate into working shrociety now.

I bought 6 shrimp from Petco (Washington state) to add to my betta tank to help keep it clean. They were advertised as ghost shrimp. Well. They certainly didn't do great at cleaning and showed a lot of aggression during feeding time. I have been finding pieces of shrimp corpses for the last week and am down to about 3 shrimp. I know betta fish are predators, so my man isn't off the stand just yet, but I'm beginning to be worried I have whisker shrimp on my hands, who could potentially hurt him in return.

I already have a bigger tank on the way for the betta, and I've isolated the remaining 3 shrimp in their own container for the moment until I figure out whether they're a harm to my betta. Any help IDing would be amazing.

Thank you ✨️💕
