How many Shrimp can you breed in 90 days?
Finally replacing my Snowball shrimp tank in this video! It's time for a detailed count and a look at our progress.
When I started this channel a few months ago, I began my first Snowball shrimp colony with just 10 shrimp, later adding another 10.
Now, after 90 days, we're resetting the tank and checking how many Snowball shrimp we’ve successfully bred. This update will reveal the growth and success of our Snowball shrimp breeding efforts!
I’m amazed by the results and can't wait to share this successful journey with you!

So I just found your channel and subscribed. I’ve got Neocaridina. They seem to be easier to deal with with our hard water. But in general, they do breed like cockroaches! 😁 Ya gotta love ‘em! 😁 Looking forward to more of your content. Cheers💯👍❗️🇺🇸
@@garageaquatics2023 thanks so much for the support man, do you have an Instagram? Would love to check out your tanks 😄🙌
@@SimplyAquaticCT My pleasure! I do have an Instagram account. It's the same as this account. I spend way more time here on RUclips than on Instagram, however. Cheers! ~Ron

Hi Tristan, awesome video! I was wondering whether you sell starter daphnia cultures? I am based in Paarl... would love to purchase some eggs or starter culture if you can spare some?

Awesome results! How big is this tank? Like a 10g (19L)?
@@RicoREB Thanks man, it's about 55L , not sure in gallons - 60 cm x 30 cm x 30 cm
I just spotted the HeldeReef Aquatics sticker behind you on the drum! So freaking awesome!

I saw Ocean Six gravel going in there 🎉 These results are crazy!

I would definitely say a success. 🎉

Good job with this colony! You've got some great stock there! 😉

where do u get the slider? nice to nice local videos. BAKGAT
@@stegieslingling5089 I make them myself, tracks from Gelmar and glass from Ano Glass. Thanks for the support 😎💪
I vote for Crystal Reds or Blue Bolts! 🤩
@@aliciamatthews8357 seems like blue bolts are a favourite 😄🙌
Great video! blue bolts gets my vote :) side note: I've been trying out a few of the Ocean Six products - really impressed thus far
That's awesome to hear! They are genuinely well priced so I'm routing for them to work - will be a game changer for the local hobby I'm sure! Thanks for watching :)
Help me choose which colony of shrimp to add in the next epsiode! Options that I think can work: Black Spotted Head Pintos Blue Bolts Pure Black Line Crystals Orange Eye Tigers Classic Crystal Reds
Black pintos or blue bolts😁🦐🦐🦐🦐
Good choices 😎💪
Hay man tel me are you in South Africa i like your videos
@@cornelvandenheever2551 yes sir, thanks I'm glad you're enjoying 😄💪
Really awesome video. Thanks for sharing
Such a fun unboxing viddy!
Just found your channel when I looked up green water as I want to keep daphnia. I'm looking forward to your next video on how to make the bio boost mixture. I've subscribed too.
@@madmax1412 thanks so much man, appreciate the support and glad I could help out 😄🙌
Substitute for bee pollen?
@@andrewsmit9932 I wouldn't know, just add more Spirulina or something high in protein. Bee pollen is a pretty good protein source.
Great video!! Thanks Tristan. Looking forward to cultivate my green water for my daphnia.
@@CelesteBeukman all the best, let me know if you need any more culture boosters 😄🙌
Epic to have found your channel, I'm Gauteng based and want to start building tanks for sale to give beginners some more affordable options and custom shape offers that fit their lifestyles. Awesome to see your videos and get inspired!

@@sanctuary_of_mango either or, whatever is easiest for you 😄
Great video, I'll keep it on hand for reference. Trying to find a better method than just Repashy gel, blanched veggies, and algae wafers - I think I found a solution! 😅🎉 Loving your channel, keep up the great work
@@kjudestevens1519 thank so you much, very happy that it's been helpful. All the best 🙌😄
Now that the new room is built and energy costs are being saved (with costs rising with each tank heater), how long do you anticipate the costs to be worth it in the long run? Return on investment question I guess.
I guess a better question is, about how expensive to build the room?
2:32 I can have red colored daphnia?! Amazing! Great video. I keep my main daphnia/scud colony in a plastic tote with a small sponge filter set on low and a heater in the winter at about 76 fahrenheit.
@@kjudestevens1519 I believe it's called Moina Magnus or something like that 😂🙌
Yes perfect video
@@MalAquatics thanks man 🙌
Great viideo, Tristin. But what is green water used for ?
@@pierrehardinge5013 it's an excellent micro food for fry and filter feeder cultures like daphnia etc 😄
Great vids buddy! Keep well
@@grimsnecro8909 thanks homie 🙌😄
Hellooooooooo😁
Hiiiii 😂
@@SimplyAquaticCTPerfect food for bamboo shrimp😁
@@LongfinAqua 100% man, I didn't actually think of that. I'd love to try and breed them but they are like amanos and need the whole larval brackish water phase which is too much PT for me 😂
@@SimplyAquaticCT yeah they hatch into these tiny floating larvae that need brackish water for their development. The larvae can live in freshwater for 2-3 days maximum, then they wil start to die, you need around 34 grams of salt per liter for the larvae to develop. And then after you need a super tiny food to help them grow and after 70 days you can start to decrease the salinity of the water and you should in theory have bamboo shrimp then😁
@@LongfinAqua yeah same as amanos. I wonder if we should experiment with the phytoplankton and try it 😄
Looking forward to those crossbreeding projects!
@@IvansGuppies thanks Ivan 😄🙌
Hope you enjoy them😁
@@LongfinAqua they are amazing I'm so happy 😄🙌
how’s everything going?-gorgeous !adios. ;)
Fantastic as usual! Gracias 😄🙌
Those shrimp are stunning!
@@timtrethan2557 fully agree, I'm really keen to see what we can get by doing a few cross breeding projects in the future 😬🙌
@SimplyAquaticCT look forward to seeing the results of what's to come!!
@@timtrethan2557 thanks for the support 😄🙌
Good video, nice and informative. I too have a daphnia magna culture going. I have an IBC with the daphnia and 2 more IBC's growing green water. To say I have a lot of daphnia, would be an understatement.
@@peterbott1877 UNLIMITED FOOD 😂🙌
Please please please do a episode on the bacteria you used at startup. Please dude
@@justjacque587 on it's way 😄🙏
Thank you and uhh thank you. 😀
This was an excellent video Tristan! There are quite a few tips I got to take away from this from using gloves (especially when aquascaping), using H202 for cleaning the inside and the DIY lids for rimless tanks. You've got a subscriber here and I wish you all the best!
Ah man thank you so much, cannot tell you what it means to me to have someone like you support me. Today has been an epic day 😄🫶 I will keep doing my best to experiment and share knowledge like you have doneand set such a great example! Big inspiration thank you 🙌
@@SimplyAquaticCT You're welcome :) Mark, Richard, Leon and myself are here in case you ever need to reach out or want to bounce ideas around.
Honestly the best community experience ever 🙌
Would be good to see this running and connected to a tank
@@adam6260 if you have a look at one of my later videos they're all hooked up and running. My latest video I actually setup a tank and filled it from this exact reservoir 😄
What does CT stand for? I was guessing Connecticut (a state in the US) but now I’m guessing not. Mark sent me. 😁
Cape Town, I'm in South Africa 😄

Hey buddy, where do you get the shelving, rimless tanks and hardware for all the canopys and ro stuff in bulk , could you add that into the videos. Id like to set up my basement with 30 or so tanks as well.
Hey Kristopher, where are you based man? Most of the stuff I've bought is local, so if you're also in the same area I could put you in contact with the places I get everything 🤙
@@SimplyAquaticCT Canada.
@@kristophertodd2419 ah okay, I'm all the way in South Africa unfortunately so I can't help you there.. sorry about that!
@SimplyAquaticCT have you always lived there or did you move there at some point? And not a problem man, your setups just look so clean and I want to setup a breeding farm like you with all those matching rimless tanks.
@@kristophertodd2419 appreciate it man. I've always lived here. For rimless tanks I'd say order some precut glass from a local manufacturer and build them yourself. For these tanks I'm using 615mm x 32.5mm x 32.5mm panels which works out to about 75 liters, and I'm using 5mm glass for strength.
