Ever time I see shrimp in a thriving tank, I imagine them all wearing hard hats and the biggest one has a new jersey accent hollering directions to the others.
Okay. I have an embarrassing story to tell, too. The first time I met Rob, he was exceptionally busy with the goings on at Aquashella. In fact, he was running around like his hair was on fire... if he had hair. So, when I approached him to say "Hi" and introduce myself, while courteous, I felt like like I was bothering him and that he didn't have time for a small time schmuck like me. That was 2022. Earlier this year, Chattanooga Ed asked me if I was going to Aquashella Chicago this year, and I was like, I don't know. I had fun the last time, but I didn't want to be a speed bump again. Well, Ed went over my head and talked to Rob for me. The next thing I know, I've have a pass, and I'm sitting next to Big Rich in the Social Media section. I couldn't have been more wrong about Rob. He is one of the nicest guys I've met in this RUclips world. He talked to me and included me in Shalla stuff as if I actually mattered. Me. At 800 subs, he had me sitting next to a guy with 150k plus subs. Riding a shark. Doing aquascaping with real aquascapers. I was blown away. Thanks, Rob, for being as cool in person as you portray yourself to be on RUclips.
Great podcast. I just recently started keeping shrimp and I have had my ups and downs. I plan on increasing the number of shrimp in my nano tank so I will keep Flip Aquatics in mind.
Awesome topic! I got into shrimp a couple months ago. I first got cherry shrimp and they have done so well. Now I’m going to be getting yellow shrimp! I am on well water and the water is pretty hard.
i set up my shrimp tank in july , just started seeing cherrys and yellows coming out of no where ,and i was in middle of tearing it down to start over with new substrate and other shrinp and BOOM lifted few hides and im in buisness baby!!!
Now that I have made mistakes with shrimp and can not keep them past one generation, I am looking to take my 10 gallon snail tank and convert it. One thing I learned is Assassin Snails and shrimp don't mix. Also Bettas see shrimp as a snack. I will keep the nerites as they don't other anyone. As I have no LFS with shrimp or swaps, it will be Flip when the time is right.
Since you were talking about misunderstanding “fish terms”. When I started fish keeping, I was watching Cory’s channel a lot - and it took me way too long to figure out he wasn’t talking about “planet tanks”. 🤦🏻♂️😳🤪
For a matten filter...Would a modified spray bar mounted on the base suffice in lieu of an air line/stone, given a low gph flow? Would it achieve similar results?
@@TheTankTalkPodcast I was thinking if the spray bar were mounted at the base or mid-way on the back of the tank aimed straight up, behind the sponge wall. No uplift tube necessary, as the current from the bar would be moving the water up the way the bubbles would.
I had guppies in my 10 gal shrimp tank. Never saw very mny shrimp. Moved my guppies to a 20 gal tank and in 15 min all the shrimp cam out. Wow got alot of shrimp, just hiding
what a beautiful, wholesome and informative podcast today. Fab job John, Jason and Rob!

Great podcast. I just recently started keeping shrimp and I have had my ups and downs. I plan on increasing the number of shrimp in my nano tank so I will keep Flip Aquatics in mind.

So cool!
Number 1!
I don't have any idea who this guy is but he seems knowledgeable
He sure is!

Ya the assassin snails and bettas can hunt down shrimp. Once they’re out of the tank I think your luck will be better!

The flow would still have to make it through the uplift tube?

Did I hear Flip right that amano shrimp get 3-4 inches long? Nothing I can find says more than 1.5-2.
Ours are about 2”. Jason
Well. What shrimp should I get? Because I have hard water with a low PH.
Water hardness is 250. My PH is 6.2. What's available for me to get?
Might be easiest to go with caridina, but add 50% RO to reduce the hardness?
yeah😂🎉😢
Hmmmm
Nope. Not even close to being the number one podcast. More clickbait and ads than anything.
The universe disagrees with you.
So why do you watch?
