i just wanna say, i found your channel about 3 years ago. I even ended up writing an english essay in 11th grade about guppies because of you haha. I've started breeding guppies and recently got a betta! just wanted to thank you and i'm glad my fish hobby journey was inspired by such a passionate person :)
THE four essentials to breed Shrimp:
1) Provide enough hiding spots for new born Shrimp (A big clump of moss or other dense plants)
2) Provide enough surface area (f.e. porous stones, wood, dense plants)
3) Feed them REALLY HEAVY
4) Regular culling of colorless and unhealthy shrimp to keep the strain in good quality
Shrimp eat biofilm. You have to find out how to boost the growth of biofilm. Thats the key!
P.S. Many micro organisms are phototrope ;)
Yea in many of these videos on shrimp you are told not to overfeed ... And if you are new and have 10 shrimp in a tank it is easy to overdo. But yea I find population growth seems mostly limited by food, and some protein boosts that as well. In fish tanks where I frequently feed small live foods that settles on surfaces like artemia, small worms etc populations explode quickly.
Excellent advice!!
@@silvioschurig749 I started to feed my Blue dreams some Daphnia, and got instantly berried females. before that I only had 1 berried female in like a few months
You forgot calcium!!
Crushed eggs shell
Is a good, cheap, diy calcium for them!!
@@rameshtonjam4300 if you have soft water*
What happened to your experiment with breading different coloured shrimp, did you do an update on that?
I want to know this too
They usually breed clear.
@@aaronarmstrongaa thats after a few genorations of breeding
Yea the one with the black trash cans?
Yeah I want to know too
I love this guy. His attitude is amazing. He will say things like “that’s for you to learn” or “that’s not my concern” 😂 great guy.
I know you know what you're doing, but I'd highly highly recommend putting the duckweed with tank water and not just dry on its own in a bucket, and plan on returning it to the tank. Because shrimplets love hiding in duckweed. I transplanted duckweed from my cherry shrimp tank into my discus tank 3 months ago, and ended up with cherry shrimp living in the discus tank after it. You just never know.
edit: Okay I got further into the video and I just wanted to say, shrimp molting has nothing to do with water changes. If anything, too many and too big of water changes can cause osmotic shock and kill off your colony. The only thing that affects their growth is food, you need to be feeding way more. High protein and tons of calcium rich foods. You also should add tall driftwood, to give the shrimp more space, and throw in some longer rooted floating plants, they love that. I've had my red cherry shrimp colony for just 4 months now, I started with 22. I've done a total of 2 water changes with them. They are in a 29 gallon and I now have well over 80 shrimp hanging out. If you raise them right they are just absolutely prolific breeders. My amanos with them also stay berried and molt monthly, while of course I can't raise the larva right now, they are still doing amazingly. My bamboo shrimp with them also molts every 1-2 months. I've had him and the amanos for longer to be absolutely fair. The tank has been established for well over 8 months.
Amazing video! From 8k to 170k, I’ve watched your content and it has improved a ton and it’s very informative! Great job kfs! 🙃
You need to have a source of calcium in the tank for molting. My tank of blue dream shrimp stopped breading after a while when I had pebble substrate. After adding crushed coral they started molting and breeding again.
Love the videos bro! Keep it up, i started keeping fishes and learning to breed because of you.
Well there probably was bunch of babies in the duck weed. In neo shrimp tanks I normally have a peice of base rock or crushed coral or oyster shells in the tank. More calcium for them and increases the pH.
Yup, I commented the same thing. I've transplanted duckweed from my red cherry shrimp colony to my discus tank before and ended up with red cherry shrimp living in there now. :( If he didn't return them to the tank... rip those babies
I love your set up and watching you get a new fish room has got me so interested in doing my own but I’m kinda more into it for the money:(
Thanks for the info buddy...trying to build my own red cherry shrimp army
Ayy congrats on 170K just 30K more fish lovers ans you are gonna get 200K!
As always great content keep up the great job your doing, I found using a comb was the best way to romove duckweed and put in water as baby shrimp love it and hide well in it.
You know before I never fancied this type of shrimp but then I seen a few berried ones on line and I cant get my hands on them anywhere. , nice video mate keep up the good work.
They are a very cute shrimp Mark
Great Video mate!
Happy to see a video today!
Thanks for an update. I normally change 10% of water weekly that works great for me. Also regular water top off is quite important from my experience so the water parameters stay the same and I would recommend to do it on the daily basis. The moss wouldn't grow very well without aqua soil in the tank or dosing ferts from my experience and often will overgrow with algae like in your case
If you don’t mind me asking, what is regular water top off??
@@Ciders sure, the water evaporates from the tank slowly so you have to add some more water to keep the water level the same. Always use RO water for top offs in order to keep the water parameters the same because all the salts are staying in the tank and only pure water evaporates
@@ShrimpMania ah that makes so much sense now. Thank you, will prob help a lot
Oh true top off with RODI water is super important. I only do water changes every few months but I do top off every other day or so with RODI water
Thanks for the update, we are waiting for the betta fry update!!!!!!
would love to see another update about the betta breeding project you started recently!!
New sub here, i just want to leave an ideia of something that i would like : How to grow plants , Top 10 essential plants to have , Java moss : utilities , how to order fish/plants ( how to choose , quality , diseases that they can have etc... )
My yellow neocaridina shrimp I started with 10 and now it’s 3 months later and now I went through and collected them from all of my tanks (slowly divided them between different betta and community tank) and I have over 200 now. Selling the majority to someone on the weekend but yeah. Same period of time, started with half the amount, and finished with over 200
Do you mind sharing what you fed them?
@@gaminggamest5837 algae wafers and insectivore tropical granules (just what I had already and feed all my fish)
do you where can buy marine shrimps for raising ? thanks
Keep us updated!!
Nice video buddy
Hey KFS could you make a crystal red shrimp video and also how frequent are the water changes
Pretty cool
How do you do water changes?
I just got mine they look so cute ☺️
hey need a little bit of advice I have 4 apistogramma cacatuoides in my 20 gallon tank with a pair of bristlenose , the bristlenose just spawned and was wondering if the apistogramma will eat the fry?
Yes
Hey guys . How do you get rid of planaria
Awesome
the closed caption said spongebob when you said sponge filter :D
If you haven’t already can you try and breed Guppies they’re one of my fave fish
What brand of the shrimp food you use?
Where are the shrimp sticks from?
How do you breed shrimp? I have Amano's in my community tank which have lived years but never bred (I guess the fry would be eaten by the other fish) and a nano tank with cherry shrimp but again I can't seem to breed them.
I also have same issues with small snails in micro tank (which is shrimp only), I understand adding chemicals will likely harm the shrimp so no idea what to do.
Nice nice but can you give us an update about the betta fry
Shrimp stop breeding in winter mostly. Unless you can stop any temp swings but they even stop by feeling barometric changes in colder months
what temperature did you have them at? the lower the temperature the lower their metabolism is
In my personal experience, with almost no water changes(less than once a month) the main difference between slow growing and fast growing colonies is more food, particularly with protein as it helps females regenerate eggs faster. Hope this helps!
What do you use as your protein please?
@@angeladundon7271 I make my own food but must shrimp specific food has a sufficient amount of protein. Generally, I feel twice a day, making sure the food I added previously is completely gone.
Have you tried giving some of your duckweed to the goldfish? I'm sure they would love it!
I think that was azolla actually. But they’d probably still like it.
what kind of water do you have in youre tank? i always thougt you need saltwater for developing shrimp babys
Everybody is calling them flaps since then 🦐 😁
So beautiful And amazing😍👍👍
I love shrimp mine breed like crazy!!
My shrimp breed but they don't get big. They stay 1/2 size. Any suggestions?
“Thats like shrimp crack” should be on a tshirt
Hi I saw your video about you getting ripoff by someone I feel so sorry for you but I am very happy to see you did not let you stop living your dream good on you I love whaching your video I hope your shop go's very well all the best in the future terry
If I mix shrimp with different colour
Does the colour reduce....
Bro can you do a totourial vid on breeding swordtail plz
Get males and females and put them together and they'll breed
When's the next breeding update
Shrimp flaps kills me every time 💀
Hey mate, what's the "shrimp sticks" brand that you're using please? I'm using frozen BBS & blood worm, with occasional Hikari... but your sticks brought them all out of hiding really fast. Can you share the name of it please?
Glad to be early
Any update on betta juveniles!
I have two pair yellow shrimp....will they breed? it's 10 gallon tank
Would snowball shrimp survive at 14c tank during winter? I found an article saying its the lower end of tolerable temp whereas others say 21C.
What do u think?
I've read reports of shrimp in outdoor buckets surviving short periods when there is ice on top.
first comment thrid like keep it up you give me more and more knowledge everyday
Best way to get rid of white planaria? are they dangerous to my cherries?
They are. Either use a treatment like No-Planaria or use Planaria traps. Also feed less. Hope this helps!
170k subs .. close to 200k .. hmm - your work is paying off one day at a time 🙂
The shrimp were on a side quest
So adorable!! And the shrimp are cute too😄
This might be a stupid question but is the water sea waster or fresh water?
Do use to clean the poop waste out of the bottom to prevent shrimp from getting sucked out
There’s very little bioload
got myself 1 male and 3 females. After 3 months I have more than 50 shrimplets
Shrimp crack!!🤣🤣🤣lmfao
How often do you do water changes when you’re trying to have the population really booming ?
I personally have just started keeping shrimp less than two months ago. I started with 20 and I do weekly water changes and I already have around 60. The tank is absolutely crawling with babies. I've noticed after each water change the number of berried shrimp doubles
@@d-rizzle2066 How big are the weekly water changes? 10%?
@@norwegian_noisemaker6737 yeah about 10-20 depending on the state of the tank
@@d-rizzle2066 ok thx
KFS: Says “shrimp sticks”
Kanye West: ***has joined the conversation***
Hey...i need some help I'm keeping a 20 gallon aquarium and have all coloration of shrimps in it that are doing absolutely brilliant job..Can i keep a beta in same tank?is it okay to keep beta male in a shrimp breeding tank??Kindly answer mee
Probably not my friend. It depends on the fish though, some people claim their bettas live peacefully with shrimp.
@@doggoneaquarist5635 Thank you buddy.. I'm looking forward to take this risk cause my tank looks too empty a beta will rock it probably
Nevermind
Bettas love shrimp.. or rather love eating them so no
They'll eat any neocaridina shrimp, amanos would be fine. Just get smaller fish that are meant for peaceful community tanks with shrimp
I was feeding my shrimp baby brine shrimp for a couple of days and two of my females had eggs shortly after. Might just be a coincidence but idk...
I started with 20 Cherries, now I have thousands.
Send me 20 please 🙏🏽
@@OmegaRed77 20 shrimp if in Vegas👍
@@slamboy66 if I lived in Vegas I would of checked you, but I live in Pennsylvania, but thank you if I’m around in your area I will honestly take you up Fam!

Do you ever sell your duckweed?
Are snow ball shrimp the same as ghost shrimp?
Can betta fish be cross breed?
Lime thai chilis cilantro fish sauce jumping shrimp
I know nothing about shrimp - so maybe a silly question, but I thought shrimp eat algae. Why so much algae?
🥰
Bro my cherry shrimp are triple the pop and i got only 5 four month ago
😍👍
More food needed. The shrimplets will be in the duckweed... oops
Try increasing your hardness my water natural pings out at 250 and my shrimp shed almost once a week and grow quickly most people belive the there parameters are the big determination point but I strongly belive its hardness
Do you have a PO Box we can send stuff to you at? Idk how it works in Australia. Here in the states a PO Box is a mailbox at the Post Office that you can get so people can send you things without having your house address.
Anyways, how can I send you a gift?? Haha
I always hear shrimp breeding, is it salt or fresh water shrimp we are all talking here?
Scuds have infiltrated and taken over my shrimp breeding tank. What can I do to eradicate them?
I found out, shrimp are sensitive to water quality..
They die very easy in dirty water
I would reccomend at least a medium size aquarium, to be able to control water quality.
Just a thought they have a specific type of shrimp that they put inside the sealed glass globes and the shrimp know when to breed and when to stop breeding due to environmental changes over population they stop breeding, underpopulation they breed again
Cam you make money selling ghost shrimp
I just got red cherry shrimp about 2 months ago, and i have had 3 die off, one by one. Every few weeks one will die. I dont know whats wrong :( Im pretty sure they are having a bad molt. I dont understand why its only 1 shrimp at a time though.
This was happening to me too, I was trying to do a blue shrimp tank only for breeding, and one started dying each week. They're very sensitive to water parameters and the tank just wasn't balanced, as soon as I put them in the community tank, bam they started breeding. Only problem is I'll never be able to catch them out and some babies will naturally get eaten by fish
Try adding coral to the tank
@@oftheHowl I only have this one tank. It’s a 7 gallon. Upgrading to a 20 soon but I probably won’t be housing shrink until I have more knowledge I guess. I have 2 more shrimp alive in my tank and they look healthy, but just one molt can kill them so it’s sad. I’m not doing big water changes anymore.
I had die off when I did sudden water changes. Now I add the new water slowly over a period of time (2-3 hours) and the die off stopped. You can try dripping the new water into your tank (depending on the size of the tank)
Id test all your water parameters including hardness. It definitely sounds like a bad molt (especially if they have a white ring around their body) which is most often caused by poor water conditions, an uncycled tank or lack of calcium in the water.
Try and avoid water changes as much as possible as shrimp are super sensitive - if needed, slowly add the water, either drip it, or add small amounts over a few hours.
Add a few indian almond/katapa leaves as this helps keep the ph nice and they like eating it, and crushed coral or egg shells to boost the calcium in the water column :)
Shrimp crack 😂😂😂
shrimp crack 🤣
Duckweed... use salvinia or water lettuce... I hate duckweed...
Except outside... it looks like a completely different plant in the sun in my patio pond... that's how it tricked its way inside... the tub was my first floating plant project, it's all gone from inside now, but I was not impressed by it
Do you still sell fish, you never seem to have any available
562!
Can you eat these?
Have you ever thought about using a bell syphon to do automatic water changes? You could use a drip line to keep adding new water and then the bell syphon would do a partial water change when the water level rose? There is a video on TH-cam which, at 2mins in, explains an automatic bell syphon: th-cam.com/video/_vV_z_0lFQ8/w-d-xo.html
Shrimp Crack 🤣
Shrimp crack🤣

It looks like you have only females you have so many saddled but i didnt see any that wasnt o.O
I can't keep them alive ...
