I was mad at first that someone sold me a wild neocaridina instead of an amano, because it bred with my red cherry, but I got a sparkly baby!

Selective breeding from culls to high grade

Posted: 23 Sep 2020 06:34 PM PDT

Hey everyone, so due to having to give away my shrimp before moving I decided to restart my colony using shrimp culls (btw if anyone has any culls to rehome I'll happily accept them :) ). The culls are coming in tomorrow, and I expect them to be very low grade (as culls tend to be). Has anyone had luck selectively breeding a colony of culls towards higher grades? I figured it would be an interesting project to attempt over time

New shrimps too active?

Posted: 23 Sep 2020 11:42 PM PDT

Hi all!

A couple of days I added new shrimps to my newly cycled nano cube (15x Blue dreams, 4x Amano shrimps).

The Blue dreams have been swimming around like crazy for the last days. They just won't seem to settle down. Even sometimes the amano's behave like that, but that's usually for a short period of time.

So far I haven't seen any dead shrimps. But I am a bit worried about them swimming around like crazy.

About the aquarium, it has been cycling for 8 weeks before I added the shrimps with no other livestock in it. Water got tested before adding the shrimps and all seemed fine. I do have an (ADA) soil substrate, which might be lowering the PH to a level the shrimps have not been used to.

Any thoughts about this behaviour?

HELP!!! My shrimp tank's nitrate refuse to stay down even with two water changes a week?

Hi everyone, first post here.

So last year my gf and I had great success with our red crystal shrimp in a 5gl tank, so we used the start of quarantine to set up a larger 20 gl tank for them. After we cycled the tank we added 4 Otos, a nerite snail, and 20 some shrimp. Initially they did great and a few of them became berried rather quickly. However, we had a constant problem of losing a shrimp basically every week. Then the shrimplets came and started dying off rather quickly and we tested the waters too find out our nitrates had climbed to about 80ppm. We most of all of our shrimp while doing more frequent water changes to bring it down, and ended up with 9 shrimp (some of them surviving babies) and nitrates back below 15ppm. Its worth mentioning as well that we have who knows how many mystery snail that we continuously remove daily from the tank.

A month ago we noticed our filter intake had basically stopped working, and I had always wondered if the filter was even working well since the sponges in it were never all that dirty. We replaced the filter, transferring the already cycled sponges over and we immediately had a good sign where a female became berried again, so we kept doing twice weekly water changes. But after the eggs hatched, most of the babies disappeared quickly. At the start of last week we had 4 berried shrimp and now we had 2 females drop their eggs so we tested the water again and the nitrates are back to 80 ppm.

Our tank is well planted so we have sponges in the hang on back filter with a layer of seachem matrix. We use fluval stratum as our substrate for the ph, and all of our other water metrics are fine, its just the nitrate that keeps climbing. What should we do? The fact that the nitrates have climbed back up again while doing twice weekly water changes doesn't make sense to me. We have another community fish tank that isn't suffering any problems so I don't think its the water itself either. Any ideas? Because I'm all out of them...
