Even with Easy Carbo in my big planted tank CRS have been breeding like a plague. No problems at all. And to add insult to injury I never gave them any food in that tank. They fed them selves with bio film, algae and what ever left overs they could fine and still in four months time they...

Thank you.I hope to be able soon to make some better video with more colourful shrimplets in it. Wish you success with the yellow shrimp.

Cheers mate. I have tried all sorts of feeding regimes. Frankly as long as the shrimplets are fed every day with just enough food (no left overs if possible) they are ok. The brand of food does not matter so much. I have currently anything between 500 - 700 small shrimplets. This is what some of...

They are cherries. Just selectively bred for stronger colour.

I also think the problem commes from the Benibachi bee max. may be the amount used should be much less, but they do not use any more accurate figures than "add a thin layer".

Hi to all experts. Two months ago I have started a brand new Denerle 60L nano cube for a CRS tank. I used only new products in there. The substrate was new Shirakura, with Benibachi Bee max and Benibachi Mineral powder. The substrate system was set up according to Benibachi recommendations...

The video is from my 30 litre CRS tank. The filter is Eheim 2224, but the flow is restricted more than half way. I would guess it is no more than 200-250L/h. Then I use very long spray bar with a lot of holes to distribute the flow on as large as possible surface area. That way the water in the...

Thanks Ady. The video is from my CRS tank. The next scape is not up yet. It is the dad actually. The two K14 I got from you were dudes. :) Cheers. It's a lot of fun. Good luck. The music is from the Mummy - The tomb of the dragon emperor. The track is - 15. Rick's Long Rod Thank you.

Hi guys. I had the fun to make this short video of my CRS creatures. I hope you enjoy it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEa5XOVC ... =g-all-lik

TDS and Cond were high, because of the ferts. Cond was in the range 350-400uS. TDS in the range of 200-300ppm. Liquid Carbon does affect the CRS, but for short time and if the amount is not high. Let say if you use half of the recommended dose (or less) from Easy Carbo the CRS have little...

I also kept many CRS in planted tanks, with NO3 5-10ppm and PO4 0.5-1ppm. I used desent amount of Easy carbo to. When I get my next aquascape going I will again stuff it with hundreds of CRS. They breed in my tanks like rats. This is what they use to look like.

Loaches + shrimp = only loaches

I am not English. I am Bulgarian and I live in Ruse. It is on the BG-Romanian border. I lived for about 8 years in the UK. The light in my CRS tank is 18W T8 6500K Arcadia over 25 litres of illuminated volume. It is not strong, but not low either. The shrimp colour after molt seems good at...

I keep the water as close to perfect as possible, by monitoring all parameters with professional tests and professional electornic probe that can measure Cond., Sal., TDS., PH and Temp. All of the gear is quite expensive laboratory stuff. I noticed that the shrimp seem to display better colour...

Great article. I have many CRS and they have been breeding like crazy. Occasionally some of them loose the white colour then it comes back. Do you have any idea why this is happening?

Just pure Fenbendazole. There is nothing better.

I think it all depends on the load. More shrimp in one case less in the other. Differences in the water supplements and so on. My smaller CRS tank is only 15 litres. It does not have under gravel filter. It was started about 18 months ago. The gravel is still in one piece and the water...

I have been using only Shirakura for CRS both in the tank and in the external filter. I do not know how so many say that it does not last long, but in my set ups it goes for years an there was never crumbling problems, not once. Certainly the rumour that Sirakura can actually kill shrimp is a...

Just a big portion of moss will do. That is how I breed them. I have hundreds of babies. Keep the water parameters steady. Also if you are using tap water gradually change it to RO with mineral supplementation. The babies will likely not survive in tap water. If you use CO2 reduce it to a third...

Stunning they are indeed. Only that from a distance will be difficult to notice their colours like with the CRS. I prefer CRS because their colours are clearly visible from far away.

By breeding thousands. In my small space i can ge only few hundred at a time. Now I have some SSS to grow. Let see how many of them will turn good specimens.

Cheers. I am still learning how to use this bloody Canon 600D. It takes me ages to get a lucky shot. :)

Hi guys. I keep a lot of cherryies, more than 200. I also breed CRS for fun. Currently have around 250 of them. Also have some Amano's.
