Welcome to RW Aquarium Pages, your one-stop-shop for all things related to planted shrimp tanks! I'm Ray, and I've been involved with aquariums since 1995. It wasn't until 2002 that I discovered my true passion for shrimp. Since then, I've dedicated my time and resources to studying and keeping these fascinating creatures.
My focus is mainly on caridina shrimp, and I'm proud to say that I currently have over 23 tanks dedicated to various species of caridina. In addition, I also have 6 species of neocaridina shrimp.
I'm here to document my journey and share my knowledge with other hobbyists. I understand that keeping shrimp can be challenging, but I believe that with the right approach and a little bit of patience, anyone can create a thriving planted shrimp tank.
You'll find a wealth of information on topics such as tank setup, water chemistry, plant selection, and more. I'll show you what works and what doesn't, and help you avoid common mistakes that can harm your shrimp.

@@rolandbryant8099 very true. I tried to make it sound better
Glad you saw the few shrimp stragglers that were stuck on the moss. Nice new content! Happy for you getting those new shrimps in the house. Nice early christmas present! Hahaha
@@foodfam7651 thx for the kind words. More content soon !!
do you need special permits to bring shrimp in from taiwan?
@WoodlandsWorld depends from country to country. Typically in small hobbyist amounts are ok, it's if you import tons and boxes that needs a permit as they think you're a business
Holy shit, bro how much you paid for shipping?
@@The_Northeast_Face $65 usd
@@The_Northeast_Face I bought a kilo costs me $166 with shipping to USA

How can I order some of these shrimp and how much do it cost?

Tai's DSP is awesome
@@kevinw1980 for sure
These are gorgeous! Do a spotlight on OE blondes next!
@@Ghosteminx oh thatll be great for sure. Thx for the suggestions
I fill that scoop to the brim for my 4gal tank once a week
@@dreadz5216 awesome !! Thx for sharing
Do you drip acclimate babies between breeding and grow out tanks?
@@One-hundredhundred i should but the honest truth answer is i don't. I set all my tanks the same, ok that's a bad excuse. I'm lazy
@@RWAquariumPages I'm planning on getting a grow out tank soon so just wanted to check Thanks for the reply
I've also made some mistakes i've learned from this year. I also sold too many shrimp from one colony and didnt bounce back the way i thought they would and another mistake was waiting until it was too late to reset the tanks (until shrimp started dying due to high ph) so i started resetting tanks before its needed as a precaution and now tanks are doing much better.
@@mariosshrimptanks oh these are great points! Thx for sharing super mario
my problem now is my shrimp doesnt really breed, water condition is perfect, ratio is ok but everytime they berried they kinda dropped the egg slowly overtime..i suspect because of light as they got stressed everytime i switched on the light. now i bought light with sunset and sunrise control. as for you, if your house has enough land, you can build a small garage or something, or you can rent shop or showroom for 40 gallon tanks..if you have enough money to spend tho
@@fadhilaiman7812 oh thats an amazing concept. I would love to do that like shrimp mania one day
This hobby just keep pushing us to have more and more tanks...
@saler1423 for sure the more the more fun
Hi, would mixing black and red pintos dilute the colors or just throw more black but still keep the patterns and color strong?
@Dmslide77 my friend does that and got both colours and the pattern was strong
@ thanks for the reply. Also, if I were to mix some boa culls with the red and black pintos would they throw some boas down the road? Or would the boa pattern dilute ?
Hi Ray! Do you think that tropica aquasoul or fluval stratum is good for fancy red tigers or should i just play safe and stick to crystal reds and tangerine tigers with that type of aquasoil?
@@foodfam7651 honestly should be good , red fancy tigers i had didnt need the super low ph
Omg! Space space space! That’s always the issue! I am surprised though that even taking out 40% of a colony can be traumatic. I would’ve thought that it would improve water quality and leave more room. Ray is a master shrimp breeder everyone! I am guilty of bugging him all the time for more of his shrimp! I’ve bought from him many times over the past 7 years or so!
@@andrewl.7369 awesome! Thx for all your support these past few years. More content soon
@andrewl.7369 that's quite interesting thought, let me think about thisnsome more. Thanks for the kind words and support. Can u imagine a rack of 40g
We are all learning bro, thats awesome! One day we become master breeders👍💪😊
High 5!!!
Hi, I've commented before that i use matten filter sponge to divide my 20 gallon longs and a couple of 10 gallons for my neocaridina. It should work just as well with caridina. You can make one side a little bigger for your grow out tank side. Get more tanks without getting more tanks bud!😊
@@anacondamaltlqr4719 thanks for commenting again, that is such a great idea. I love it. Thanks for this
@RWAquariumPages it's probably not practical for cube tanks though as most of my caridina tanks currently are but before xmas i'm gonna change a 20 long i have to a caridina. Thanks for taking the time responding
@@anacondamaltlqr4719 20g longs are such a nice foot print. I need some
@@RWAquariumPageswhat is even better than a 20 gallon long ( 30 x 12 12 ) is the ZOO MED 28 gallon LOW BOY ( 38 x 18 x 10 ) A while back Ryo Watanabe You Tube visited a Master Crystal red etc Shrimp breeder and I was wondering if you had ever seen it ? It might be worth a look either way Ray . March 19 2020
Nice video. How do you think selling 50 shrimps out of a 100 shrimp colony affected them? I've done that before and have not noticed issues.
@@albertoc3279 thzts quite a bit, but with 50 left that can grow back easily
Zdravím, největší chybu jsem udělal, když jsem si donesl domu kousky řas z jezera((myslel jsem že to krevety použijí jako jídlo. všechny nádrže šli do restartu.
oh wow! that's an amazing story to tell! thanks for sharing!!! sometimes things from the wild might have more parasites I'm guessing, thanks!
I just ordered these from temu they just came in the other day I'm going to set up some tanks with them tomorrow I'm so excited
@@alantooth48 awesome! High 6
@@alantooth48 let me know how it goes. Add a sponge to the ugf
Does the tray fit snuggly inside the container? I had bought one from Temu, but the gap was big enough to let Aquasoil fall through. I was hoping to use it without the sponge cover.
@@laketuna it does fit well, but I think the soil will go through through crate or ugf so best to use a thin sponge to be honest. Hope that helps
I run 5g caridina tanks. My oldest one probably has 40+ shrimp including a couple batches of babies, but it looks pretty crowded. Haven’t seen any berried females for a few weeks since the last batch, but it definitely works and great for dealing with limited space.
Amazing, so happy for your success with 5g tanks
Can you make an update video on the Spider-Man shrimp? Even if it didn’t succeeded I think it would be a cool video
@@francescazampirolo3427 oh will do thx for the reminder
