- This video will show you how easy it is to get started on raising Freshwater Prawns at minimum cost. This is how I start raising Prawns and still using this method. I hope this information will help some of you get started on raising Prawns.
Thank you. Planning to start. Learning all about the process first.
To keep your 50 gallon totes from bursting, consider zip tying 1/2" EMT you can get at home center in the electrical department.
I used the same container and agree, I had to build a structure to keep the sides straight. I'm using a swirl filter built from a garbage container and a 5 gal bucket.
Lovely Video! Excuse me for butting in, I would love your thoughts. Have you ever tried - Elenajan Supplement Smasher (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a smashing exclusive guide for learning how to shrimp farm like a pro minus the normal expense. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my mate at very last got excellent results with it.
Where do you purchase the prawn starters ? Also after you thin out the larger ones do you put them into another tank?
Great video thanks for sharing :)
Hi KT ,Can you List out Items need Included Feeds Also??
Awsome!!! 👍
what do you feed to them so they can grow big faster?
Thanks bro you the best deal
Awesome!!!! I'm going to start raising prawns for my aquaponics setup.. grow 2 foods at once! I'm in Pahoa Hawaii!!
so how is ur set-up working?
@@temujinkhan6326 Got robbed, had to move back. But i plan on trying again!!!
Hi KT Prawns, thank you for this great video. Do you provide some sort of training?
Nicely done. Do you do consulting for mass production?
Use two tubs, one inside the other for double wall strength !
@Rick Lane Appreciate Video! Excuse me for butting in, I would love your thoughts. Have you heard about - Elenajan Supplement Smasher (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is a smashing one of a kind guide for learning how to shrimp farm like a pro minus the headache. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my friend Sam at very last got astronomical results with it.
@@marianellaramirez3786 You are a dead set Wanker and you're father should have been!!
Thanks...mind to share the materials required to build a prawn farm like that...
Where did you source your prawns from?
You are good
what do you feed them? I asked this question because I tried feeding mine with sinking pellets but they don't seem to eat them, I tried squash that were cut into small sizes but they dont ate this too, I tried dead small fish but they don"t it too. My aquarium now often smells because of the uneaten food. What shall I do?
Nice video
Prawn goes for the water heater like oooooooo warm. I'm going to do this next year
Thanks a lot
Ty
I think a couple of these guys would look great in a 20 gallon aquarium 😎👍
With a bunch of cherry shrimp .
They would look great all by themselves in a planted aquarium.
Be careful because they will eat all the cherry shrimps..
Great video thank you!
Do you kill them or freeze them before selling?
I need prawns,
I just want to know if I can throw them in my pond....
I need to know about the temperatures they need, the pond never freezes over it has bass, catfish, and blue gill and carp..
So I think they cam lubes in the same water, I know the other fish will eat alot of them,...
So I need to know how many should I out in it at 1 time and how large they should be before I put them in, to discourage the other fish from eating them all..
Thanks for the sharing, I am thinking about raising some myself but where do you get the baby shrimps ?
+Joe Wang Hi. I raised and Breed them at home on a very small scale..
Sir whats the purpose of the net or substrate?
Interesting wow
Hey mister, I want to breed prawn or freshwater shrimp. I was wondering if you knew of a variety that is not amphomorphic and cold resistant
Subscribed👍👍👍
Can We Use This Way For Shrimp Farm?
Were do you get love prawn
hi do u have any to sell right now and can u ship to Canada?
Did you hatch the prawns yourself or purchase PL's?
It did help, thank you!! Where would you recommend purchasing Prawns at? What do you usually feed your prawns?
Dan Chetcuti Hello, he raises and sells shrimp, so if you go to his about there is a link to his ebay and his website. Where you are able to purchase his prawns.
Thanks for the video content! Apologies for the intrusion, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you researched - Elenajan Supplement Smasher (should be on google have a look)?

Hi Thank you for this amazing video, my question is are you running the water on the filter in and out?
Yes, there are filter pads that catches debris as the water returned to the container.
@@KTPrawns does the filter sucks small baby prawns too?
What do you feed them?
Do you need brackish water for breeding?
hi kt . please let me know water temperature ph and amonia etc.. is this same with water of koi pond except water temperature warmer
Hi. Water parameters are listed on my website. Thanks
Hey dude I'm from the Caribbean do u mind answering a few questions for me
Hi, whats the function of netting? what should be capacity of water pump? Do i need separate tank to segregate adults, if do.. how many tanks? how many larvae can i start maximum in this 50 gallon tank?
Screen is for layers or to increase your square footage of grow area
What do you feed prawns?
Where would one buy prawns for breeding?
How would this do upscaled to a children's wading pool?
Could this be done in a garage?
The water heater is set for 80F, what if the air average temperature is over 100, making the water hotter like in the 90s?
Can prawns be raised with other animals for farming too?
Hi. I raised my Prawns from my home. I sell them as well to keep my hobby going. You can Use any sinking pellets fish food that is made for game fish.
I raised my in the basement so you can raise in a garage. Just make sure water temperature is around 80°F, 90°F is fine. Prawns should be raised on it own, no other animals with it.
Thank you for this, what’s a safe water conditioner & bacteria starter for shrimp being raised for human-consumption?
No idea for FOOD. I'm so new to this. I do know brewers use StarSan prior to fermenting alcohol.. Hope you did find what you're looking for.
Did you ever figure it out? I’m looking to breed for consumption as well
does it work on neocaridinas what is the name of it
and are they expensive? I have 2 lakes (where they will grow.) One lake is about 1 acre, the other is about 2 acres. Is there anything I need to add to the lakes prior to adding the shrimp? Right now, the lakes are crystal clear. I don't recall being ableto see the bottom of the lake.
Pricing is on my website. I believed my pricing is very good compared to others. I do this as a hobby and just wanted to make enough to cover operating costs.
Make sure Lake temperature is at least above 70°F. You shouldn't have to add anything, just make sure you don't have any large fishes in it.
How do you plan to harvest the Prawns?
You'll need to grow the Prawns to about 1" before stocking your lake. This will give them a better chance of survival if conditions changed.
@@KTPrawns do you post it to uk ?
Were can I get fresh water prawns?
where do I buy them? I raised them years ago and can't remember where I bought them from
They are listed on my website, www.ktprawns.com
This was great, I been tryin to find out about "raising edible shrimp in aquariums" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Eenva Harrowing Eradicator - (should be on google have a look ) ? It is an awesome exclusive product for discovering how to start a shrimp farming business without the normal expense. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my neighbour got great results with it.
Great Video. Can you clarify exactly what species of prawns you are raising. Is it the Macrobrachium Rosenbergii?
Should I soak the substrate before adding it to remove chemicals?
What do you feed them
I'm really interested in doing this. But only after I'd have everything set up. Just wondering what all foods they will eat. And do you sell package deals on amounts to get started
Please visit www.KTPrawns.com for detail and availability. Thanks
What do feed them?
What do they eat?
How many liters OF water are u using?
Thank for your video. Please tell me what is their feed?
+Reksmey Ok You can use and Sinking pellets fish food, like Purina sinking pellets.
Thank you.
Thanks
Where I can buy the Prawn?
Won't the filter pump suck up the baby prawns?? How do u prevent that??
No, because the Prawns in this video are over 2 inches..
I took me an hour to find a video with this much info on prawn and even this dosent give me all the info i want
how many prawns can we grow in 1 u (1000 ltr) water?? with aeration and filtration?
When raising Freshwater Prawns, square footage of crawl space is more important. Second would be the amount/quantity of water in the container. Depending on harvest size you wants, will determine on the amount of Prawns you can have in the container. Your 1000 liters could be container size of 6ft long x 3ft wide x 2ft depth but I'm not sure. Please visit my website at www.ktprawns.com to find stocking density. Thanks
how do you neutralise the water before put the prawns in?
Treatment with any water conditioning to remove the chemicals.
Hi man, where do you live ? I am living
in Washington State, so can I grow that fresh water prawn? Because my state weather is very cold.
You will need to grow them indoors. These are tropical animals and require warm water to survive.
thats what a water heater is for ;)
That vibratory pump gives me the jitters, Can just imagine it creeping towards that big tub of water.. ⚡⚡⚡
Nice Video! Sorry for the intrusion, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you considered - Elenajan Supplement Smasher (google it)? It is a smashing one off product for learning how to shrimp farm like a pro without the headache. Ive heard some great things about it and my m8 after many years got cool success with it.
For some reason I want to farm raise my own prawns for sustenance
Ok I have a problem and really need help. I have been reading a lot and am very confused! I recently was given some giant freshwater prawn and one of the females are pregnant. I want to try to hatch and raise the babies. From what I understand once the eggs hatch the larvae must be put into brackish water at about 4% salinity. I can't find the ratio of marine salt to water to mix. Please help!!!!!
I would assume 4g of salt to 100g of water but I'm new to this whole thing. How are your prawns coming along?
Use a hydrometer. Slowly add marine salt to your water. Add marine salt in small amounts to your water and measure your water using the hydrometer until it reaches a salinity level you want.
What do you feed the prongs at the different ages as they grow?
High protein sinking pellets for the first 60 days. After that 35% Protein sinking pellets and some treats in between until harvest.
@@KTPrawns What brand of food had worked best for you?
How are you housing adults?
+Greg Cxox I keep them in this container until they are big enough to harvest. I would harvest the big ones first and give the smaller one more time to grow.
KT Prawns may I ask the size at witch you harvest?
I've been looking into buying some of your shrimp. I'm trying to determine what kinda space I need
Hi.. I harvest them at around 5 inches. Depending on your container size, feeding and water conditions, it will be about 4-5 month for them to get to 5 inches. I get between 18-24 Prawns per/lb at around this size.
I am really interested to start a business with..
where do you buy prawns and what about heat and water conditions ................thanks
Water conditions are listed on www.ktprawns.com.
What temperature do they like
80°F-84°F.. They grow faster with these temperatures..
You should consider buying Rubbermaid 50 to 100 gal stock tank instead because they are more durable than the average Sterlite container.
or you can build a 20x6 and 4 feet high concrete pond... the whole idea here is how to start
What do you feed your shrimp??
I used feed made for shrimps. I also used sinking pellets game fish food.
cab you please elaborate why do we need the netting?
What kind of food do you feed them ?
+Philippines - Darrell Cheeks Hi. You can feed them sinking pellets fish food or fish cut up to small pieces. They will also eat slightly cooked vegetables too.
KT Prawns waw nice vdeo at thnaks for sharing every one.i have idea now how feeding food for fresh frown
im specialist for grow prawn sir. we call it "udang galah". its from indonesia n malaysia before spread to india n others countries. :)
is it possible to do indoor commercially?? i want to grow Prawn and Pacific White Shrimp
Hi. Yes, you can grow year round in door. You can control water temperature much better if growing indoor.
@@KTPrawns hi... how can i contact you
Hi. My website is www.ktprawns.com. Contact information is there. Thanks
How many adult prawns can fit into that container ?
12 maximum with netting substrate..
Can you use the glass aquarium instead of plastic container to grown the shrimp
Thank you
Yes, you can use any clean container to grow Prawns..
Are you still raising prawn? I would like to start but need some help sourcing items.
Yes, please visit www.ktprawns.com for details. Thanks
Do you ship both male and female ?
Yes, I shipped mixed sex Juveniles..
Do you breed them to eat and if so how many you get in a season or year?
Hi. I did at one time when I was in Texas. I have a video on it. I'm now in South Dakota and doing this in my basement. I don't have room to grow a lot so I only grow a few dozens at a time, 2 time a year.
@@KTPrawns link please cant find it!
www.ktprawns.com
@@KTPrawns video for texas sorry!!
@@KTPrawns I'm interested in seeing that video.
you eat these? and you use stresscoat?
They are tiny. Any chemicals is gone way before they are at harvest size.
can we culture this fresh water prawns in cage?
+Maulik Tandel not sure what you mean by cage.
its cage culture technique for culturing fish in reservoir. Click on this link th-cam.com/video/oiR8fUN_yes/w-d-xo.html
How long does it take for them to reach maturity? I am thinking about creating a farm in a caged off section of the lake I live on. The water temps will be ideal during the summer. Maybe there are other breeds that are better suited to temperate climates? Maybe even survive winters? Please let me know your thoughts sir.
Michael Earnest no crawdads in the lake? Be much simpler to have a few traps in the water...
Not in any real big numbers. Catfish pretty much took over and decimated everything. I have not seen one in a very very long time.
Well, catfish are good eating, and sounds like they would be free...
I’m not trying to piss on your parade, just seems like you are creating work where there doesn’t need to be any...
Catch catfish all summer to get the population in control, filling your freezer in the process, then try to repopulate the lake with crawdads or shrimp or both.
If I had a 1 acre lake, I’d be in heaven and eating good :)
Good luck man!
What kind of prawn do you raise ? I am verry interested in crustatians and i want to raise and breed those animals you show in this video. Can you please write an answer with the name of those prawns or the latin name of this species below ? This would help me a lot . Thanks and Sorry for my bad english, i live in germany. Ithank you in advance for your reply.
+Stefan Strohbach Hi. The species is Macrobrachium rosenbergii.
KT Prawns i visited your website and saw that you sell prawns do you ship them to europe ? In our shops those prawns cost 14€ each prawn and you cant even see if its a male or female.
+Stefan Strohbach Hi. Sorry but I don't ship outside the US. You country may have laws regarding importing Freshwater Prawns.
So what is that in US dollars?
KT Prawns 14 € are 16,72 $ . I mean, when i couuld breed them somehow, than that would really helpful. I personaly raise and breed 2 local saltwater shrimp species ownly even smaller. What do you say ? How much adult prawns can i raise in a 53 gallon tank ? Maybe 1 or 2 ?
Stefan Strohbach If you have a substrate in you 50 gallons tank, you can easily raise 3-6 Prawns to full adult size of 6-7 inches.
Why Did You Put Nets ?
What Is The Use Of This ?
That OneGuy The netting help add more crawl space to the container because they like their space. It also give them a chance to get away from other when they are molting or they will get kill/eaten.
because they are cannibalistic and territorial ... but when each has their own "tiny house" they can stay in there and protect themselves. They all go through life cycles .. they can't grow unless they shed their outer skin (MOLT) when they do this their new skin is very soft and they are vulnerable to attack from other prawn and could get eaten... However with their lil tiny individual homes they just sit there and take whatever food floats by and not leave during this molting time.. then come out only when their hard outer shell is healthy again.
@@troychampion How much time it takes to harden their skin?
It will take about half a day for their new shell to harden.
@@KTPrawns Thanks for your reply.
what do you feed your prawns
whisky and tackila haha shrimps protein
Feed them any high protein sinking game fish pellets..
Can you use a sponge filter. What type food do you feed them? Can you breed them easily? Do have a harvest to plate video? Sorry all the questions I thinking next spring to get them for my family aquaponics. I don't eat prawn but wife and mom does. Thank you for the video and answering my questions. I been following channel for a while. And love it if think raising prawn would be fun.
Hi. Sponge filter can be use but it can't handle lots of Prawns as the main filter. Purina sink pellets would be a good feed for the Prawns. I don't have any video of harvest to plate but do have some photos on my Facebook page facebook.com/freshwaterprawns/
KT Prawns loved the photos. Know just need get my wife and mom on board and I can buy some add to our aquaponics and couple for the aquarium because I like how males look
You eat them? Or feed them to other fish? Or just let them live?
Think he grills him 😆
Do you use probiotics?
No, I do not..
