That orange tank is insane
I am glad you followed your dream. Hats off to you.
Thanks so much! It's been a really fun journey!
I'm with you on loving the orange! I have a dozen Orange Rillis and that color just pops!
It's cool to look back at how far you guys have come in such a short time. Love it.❤
Flip Aquatics...the reason I have shrimp tanks! Keep up the good work man! So excited to see the new building complete!
Those oranges are nice.
I'm always impressed to see how quickly your company is expanding! Looking real good! Eventually once I setup a nice planted display I'll be getting some shrimp.
I'm impressed, You have done such a great job, I love what You have done!, I only hope the best for You.
A cure!? I cant wait! What a relief lol... SO jelly of your shop and the tanks.. so awesome!!
I respect your passion....🙏🙏🙏
Great job breeding! My favorite part of owning shrimp tanks is during the evening and morning they tend to swim like fish.
Your videos are awesome .....
Thank y’all at Flip Aquatic! The package got to me and made me smile just when I needed one red fish, also Been a fan from day one Matthew CFP Nature Tech
Nice work.
I love how the shrimp sticks are used up, You are just like the rest of us, not always perfect but loving our tanks.
Love them yeller ones
Can’t wait to get my order!!! Happy New Years!!
Don't do it. If you animals are DEAD ON ARRIVAL, then you will be blamed and no refund will be given. Horrible experience. I'll never order from them again, and encourage everyone else to shop at your local aquatic supply store instead.
Love your videos bro!! Amazing
Dude bro. Do you have any idea how much you have inspired me? I know time flies by but your energy has truly opened up my eyes to what's possible, in what feels such a short amount of time.
PS: I have been in the hobby for over 15 years. Started with 2 Oscars in a 55 but didn't have it long. Got a fluval edge for free 6 or 7 years ago with just 1 cherry shrimp I pulled all the soil out rinsed it and the thing still managed to survive.
Appreciate you and what you're bringing to the US.
True Inspiration!
Love all the varieties!
dang.. those 125's are sooo crazy haha you a mad man.. love it
You have grown alot and this video is awesome I think it really shows the work You have done, Great job!.
dude i live in pittsburgh i hve 6 shrimp aquaiums watching ur vids got me hooked i wnna come visit flip aquatics one day im the guy always bothering you asking questions
"thats what a 1000 oranges look like..." WOW! so crazy awesome!!!
not sure if you guys gives a shit but if you are bored like me atm you can stream pretty much all the new series on instaflixxer. Have been watching with my brother for the last few weeks xD
@Ian Benicio Definitely, I've been watching on instaflixxer for months myself :)
I recently found a few berried dark red Bloody Mary's. The babies were very blue, but as they got older, some got dark red, while others turned more brown, and a few stayed spotted blue. They will be fun to selectively breed, can't wait to see what comes of a few generations!
Thank you for my New friends
fantastic job.
any purple shrimp.
I want to build an Orange and Purple tank Go Clemson !
Hi rob nice tanks and nice shrimp soon I'll be setting up my tank and I will be ordering shrimp from you guys. Happy New year 🎉 God bless 🙏.
Great video for the new year much love and happiness for you and yours in the new year😎👍🇦🇺
do you have a video of you setting one of these tanks up? would love to see it
Happy New Years Rob & Amanda!
Those colors are stunning looking forward to ordering some from you soon!!!
Awesome video tour!
Cool stuff!
your facility is HUGE! I love your passion for your work and for these beautiful creatures. Thank you for sharing this with us. I'm really interested in trying shrimp again, but I just don't have the water for them right now. Anyway, happy new year and may the Lord bless you, your family, and your business this year!
First time viewing shrimp. Had no clue there were so many varieties.... they r BEAUTIFUL!!! Thanks for adding to what species I already watch.... yaaaaaa 🤪. Hahaha. What else can u include n a shrimp tank?
Awesome! I'm excited for you brother. God has blessed you for sure! Maybe you could do a combo store/ gallery up top with a store on one side and gallery on the other. It looks big enough on video.
Happy New years to you I definitely gotta order some shrimps from you soon but keep me posted in the amazing & beautiful shrimps.
Happy New Years Rob! Best wishes to you and your family!
I wish I can just get one scoop of the yellow ones and put it in my tank
Dang. I came to see the snails and you skipped it! Lol
You set up a shrimp store, I'm coming to see you guys! Just bought my first few Fantasy Blue from Agno but it'd be so cool to have a shrimp specific store so close
Can’t wait to order some from you and do my own small business out here as well you as well as other fishtubers have inspired me
New Year & most stuff sold out. Hurry & restock got birthday 🎁 $ & would like to buy. Thanks for the great videos & reason why I got shrimp 🦐 tank. Great 👍 job.
Dude you look backed 😱😊
What an AMAZING setup! Such hard work and deep thought you've put into it, and the livestock and plants are all the healthier for it! Wish we had something that came anywhere close to this in Canada, or that you could easily ship to us here.
For some reason when I saw those orange shrimp I smelled gaterade and I wanted it so bad!!
Happy New Year to all at Flip Aquatics, love the tours and you peaked my interest with the dragon blood shrimps, if possible can you let the gneral public know if and when they would b avail for sale?
Looking good! When will you be shipping again?
Shrimp store would be so dope. It would get more passersby people into the hobby, because once you see them for the first time you are going to want them bad
Hey Rob can you do a video on the process of cleaning or changing out a Matten Filter with all those shrimp in the tank. How do you keep them from getting trapped behind the filter if you change it out? Thanks and May God continue to bless you and Flip Aquatics.
xKen, No I have not. Only thing I know to do is try and chase them to one end and quickly place the filter. I still end up trapping or killing a few in the process. Thanks.
xKen, thank you for that information.
I’m setting up a Caridina aqua scape and I’m so exited to make my first purchase from the famous flip aquatics.
Don't do it. If you animals are DEAD ON ARRIVAL, then you will be blamed and no refund will be given. Horrible experience. I'll never order from them again, and encourage everyone else to shop at your local aquatic supply store instead.
Happy New Year!! Open a fish and shrimp store!! What is that beautiful plant in the big tank?
Love your new setup... after it's all up and running, will folks be able to come and buy from you?? I'd LOVE to get some of that driftwood!!!!
I definitely need that elopsidae cure
Dude, I never thought I would have shrimp. I just ordered a couple of royal blue ones to go along with my platys. I'm confident that they'll be fine since the platy fish don't mess with the gammarus. And why did I get shrimp? Your videos!!!
Best USA shrimper, good job, happy for you all! What do you use for cutting and drilling matten filters?
78.4k but only 586 likes the fuck? Give this man likes people he works hard for this hobby at least help him with some likes
If you had a water tank/reservoir big enough for all your tanks, you can condition tap water with prime SAFE, wait for 3 days or until all the bubbles evaporated. This is been extra careful with completely neutralizing chlorine for water changes, top offs, and setting up new tanks. To me Losing one shrimp is already losing too many shrimp, unless they're old.
This is has helped me not lose any shrimp and they grow big much faster.
Hopefully this will help you not lose any more shrimp if you want to be extra careful with tap water.
I really love the intro music
Love that office- is there an updated tour since this one ?
Ooh secret cure, can't wait until you can capitalize and people can save their shrimp.
i was just thinking about you the other day! i wasn't sure if you were still doing this or not. so happy to see you are. random, would you test tank water if i brought it out? i tried cherries last year and killed them all over the course of a month.. the tank is 8 years old and i had crystals in it prior, i'm thinking to low of PH maybe? or nothing good left in the tank since its sat with only plants for 3 years.
Do you guys plan on stocking the 125 Matten filters?? I have bought all the other various sizes but I would love to add it to a 125 like the ones in video
Rob man I have a question I had three shrimp for a month started with 5 2 died off well I got the rest of my order 2 days ago slowly got them use to the water a 3 hour process but 2 days later I'm down to one shrimp all at once the only one that has made it is the blue dream from the start of keeping shrimp I pulled that shrimp and added him to my recovery tank.
Hi, how do u setup filters on your shrimp tanks.🙏🏻
Substrate used on neocaridina shrimp?
I have few questions, I hope I get a reply from you, I am Debjeet from "Royal Aquascaping" I have a small TH-cam Channel also 🤭.
Questions:-
1. What type of soil you are using, what is the thickness of soil and what type of filter is that?
2. What you feed them ?
3. How often you change the water ?
4. What is the reason of black background?
Thank you for uploading this video.
So I know I'm not them but I know the answers:
1: They use Brightwell Rio Escuro-F and have about 1/2--1" of soil. The filter is called a matten filter, it is better in most cases than a sponge filter because it has 4 times the amount of surface area of a sponge filter.
2: They feed a variety of foods to the shrimp like: Shrimp King 5 in 1, Bacter AE, Mineral Junkie, Shrimpfit, Shrimp Dinner, Shrimp Baby, several shrimp lolly flavors etc.
3: Do a 10% water change every 3-4 weeks if the tank is shrimp only.
4: The black background makes the colors of the shrimp and even fish pop and makes plants look better.
Do those big tanks help with the breeding or something!? I am thinking, WOW Those Are BIG Tanks For TINY Shrimp!!
Why sell a product you haven’t tested yet yourself ? Very nice setup you have and very interesting, thanks for the showing.
Do you guys ship to Toronto Canada? Doesn't specify on your website if it's UsA only eh
Just a question? What do you do with the ones you cull? Do you sell them cheaper? I’d love to get some shrimp in my tank, but I can’t afford them
Just wanted to check in see how ur doing and god bless
How come my dream blue shrimp only had transparent ones :( and no blues at all
Hello, mate. In your earliest videos you prefer a filter pool sand for the substrate. Now, as I can see - you are using another type of substrate - bigger fraction. What is this substrate? Is there any reason to change a substrate? And if so - what it is? You still using a HMF, I may bet this is the perfect biological filtration.
Shrimp dont need plants? Also, I have cherry shrimp but they arent very red. More like dark orangish(not yellow) color. Do you know why?
Is there live today ??
can you tell more detail about the disease at 1:58 sir
Holy smokes
we have hard water...is it the caridinas that do ok in hard water....i have a 60 gal. i am wanting to be shrimp
Neocaridina do great in hard water. Although I always recommend you test your water prior to ordering
Why arent there any plants or decor in your 125 shrimp tanks? Couldnt you house alot more per tank if you ran plants??? 🤔
Also what's the best temperature for keeping shrimps in totally new to them.
What are you wanting for the driftwood I’m only a hr away from Youngstown an work there all the time been looking for a couple nice pieces for my tanks
Any OE Royal Blue or OEBT in neo parameters?
@ 1:46 what word was that? Ive never heard of that.. what is it?
I watched this video and saw a lot of Northfin food so I went to the website and all Northfin foods say SOLD OUT !?!?!?!?
Heya Rob!!
Listen, I want to add a wavemaker to my 10 gallon planted shrimp tank (don't laugh) however, I can't seem to find any videos on the best kind for such a small tank, or a shrimp tank in general. I've got smile.amazon up in another tab looking through them but the designs are REALLY spooking me simply for the fact that they all look like shrimplet meat grinders. No bueno. I need more circulation in the tank but am coming up empty on wavemaker/powerheads that would be appropriate not only for my size but for shrimp specifically. I only keep invertebrates but all the videos I'm finding are geared towards fishkeepers. Any suggestions from yourself OR the comment section? Thanks y'all!
A pump with a sponge filter on the intake will work. You'll just need to diy a lift tube for it
Alright alright
I'm assuming you're gonna start shipping plants out Monday? I ordered a week and a half ago not realizing the shipping delay applied to everything and not just live animals
What is the substrate you are using, is it garden soil?
I know this is a very late answer lol but it is Brightwell Rio Escuro
Seeing those oranges made me mad because when I ordered some from you I was sent a bunch of clear some yellow 2 oranges and a cherry. What was I given the bottom of the barrel because yall where out of stock? I would have gladly waited for better shrimp then what you guys sent me.
may i know what substrate you use for neocaridina? thanks!
They use eco complete and flourite
why do you have no plants inside your shrimp tanks??
For the amount of shrimp we keep, plants rent to get in the way when catching. If they were for breeding, we would definitely have then
Im setting up a RCS breeding tank 20 gallon high, i just got a sweet sponge filter from aquarium co-op which is a really course sponge. Should i get a finer sponge for it or is it cool to use course? I see they love hanging out/eating on the sponge in this video which looks pretty fine so if any can help LMK !!! Thanks
is there a contact that can be contacted for ordering
So it's fine to breed Neos on plain substrate?
No plants in the shrimp tanks???
What are you using for your tops on the tanks?
Can i keep shrimp in water with a temperature between 78 thru 82.
John Larsen I’d say around 76 is the best temp you can get it
what kind of substrate are you using?
