Thanks, Richard! I've also been overfeeding to my Sulawesi shrimp tank for a while under a strong system of filtration (this is important as you mentioned a way by water change), and the same result. It will increase the rate of survival of baby shrimps, and help those species of Sulawesi shrimp who act slowly to get food more easily. A really great hint for shrimp keepers to get a rolling pin in the toolbox, although we usually use it to make dumplings in China, don't let Mom see :D
I do the same thing but with my plant trimmings, rather than compost my trimmed plants - I simply dry them out on parchment and then grind them to a powder. paper towels will soak up valuable liquid nutrients. so i use parchment.
Nice. Thanks for sharing 🫶🏻
I fed my baby shrimp almost the same way I take dried blood worms and fish flakes and grind them in a homemade mortar and pestle take that powder and mix it in a small dish with water and then mix it up again and squirt it in with a small pipette, this was on my second round of cherry babies. My first wave of babies there was only 3 or so that made it to a reasonable size and the second had 13 with the pipette feeding.
Nice. Thanks for sharing 🫶🏻
I would love to have a hard copy of your book if you ever produce some I’ll definitely buy 1
Your Shrimp Handbook is AMAZING ! It helped me make the right decision numerous times.
Thank you so much for taking the time to let me know. I am glad you enjoyed it and found it helpful 🫶🏻
Exactly the finding from my shrimp tanks. The one breeding is the one I feed every day. Theres ever any food left after the rabbit snails have been there.
I tried cutting down this week and they were ravenous last night as you saw!
Great video.

After seeing your videos. My urge to get back on shrimp keeping already started a week ago. Used to keep caridina. But then now neo really attract me after watching your videos. Your honest on giving opinion and guidance, truly inspire other hobbyists on shrimp keeping. Keep on giving more video rick! Always look forward on your video. Stay healthy! And stay safe Rick!
Thank you for your kind feedback. Glad you’re back in the hobby 🫶🏻
Good video. I always feed heavy and it seems to be ok. Breeding is great. I keep an eye on parameters and adjust accordingly. I find snails help with excess food as well
Thanks for sharing 🫶🏻🐌
another great video richard, thank you

Thanks, Richard. Good stuff!

Idk if anyone can help or give any advice here, wanted to let my tank cycle for another month or 2… went to a store and grabbed some plants for my tank, and when I got home I noticed a cherry shrimp running around in the bag that had my plants. Immediately thought about driving back to the store but with Phoenix traffic , I wouldn’t have made it in time. I acclimated the 1 cherry shrimp and then let him free in my tank. So far so good, but just worried about if he’ll be ok as a single shrimp. He’s colored up so much in just 1 day but still want to take the best care of my free friend that I can.
shrimp aren’t really social creatures. He (or she) will be quite happy living alone 👍🏻
@@FishKeepingAnswers thank you! Plan on getting more friends for him in the future! Great video as always
@@OGBarry16 I live in Phoenix too. What are some good fish/shrimp stores around here?
@@OGBarry16congrats on your accidental first shrimp!! Hitchhikers are definitely a thing. 😅
@@ElectricBoogaloo007 I like Kona Reef or Aquarium Arts… people at Aquarium Arts seem to have better customer service and overall passion for the hobby.. although they are smaller and have less selection than others.. but I haven’t tried them all yet!
great video
Thank you 🙏🏻
I've got a community tank the only clean up crew I have are three Bamboo Shrimp and must have over 100 Cherry shrimp, the water is gin clear, I do weekly water checks and only change if needed. I feed ground up fish food along with shrimp pellets, I make sure some sinks around the tank, babies! all over the tank 😊 they keep it so clean. Only down side is my Betta goes on the hunt sometimes, he's not very good at catching them as I've put two many hiding places and it's full of plants/moss👍
I’ve 9 ghost mom and I have mother guppies
I don't use a spice grinder just because it needs to be a fish food only purchase. You can't switch between coffee and fish food😅. I just use a mortar and pestle to powder food for my nano fish and shrimp.
Great point 😂
I have subscribed to Mark's shrimp tanks because of your podcast. Thank you for doing it. I was watching a video where Mark used suction cups and skewers to basically make a wall of moss. I know that this would increase the area for biofilm to grow, but I'm wondering if it would help the babies find food and cover more easily. Also, it would help the filtration. What are your thoughts about this? Mark got the idea from another podcaster, but I don't remember the person's name. I'm new to shrimp keeping, so any ideas that you have would be of great help to me. Also, even though I haven't finished reading your book, I really like it. Sorry for the long rambling post.
Hi. Thanks for taking the time to comment. It’s always appreciated. Marks videos are top notch and I’m glad you’ve subscribed to his channel.
The moss on suction cups idea is great. it will provide both hiding places for the babies and additional surface area for biofilm to grow on. Plus, as you say, the moss will help purify the water as it grows. It creates a win-win-win situation 🥳
I keep Red Galaxy. I feed only once a week. This is their third batch of babies in 3 months. I feed them Shrimp King 5 in 1 from Denerle. I don t know how important is the times of feeding. I think the food quality plays the major role.
Over feeding brought planaria into my tanks. Doesn't matter how many times i rescape and change tanks they're numbers are keep multiplying.
Yeah, that can happen 😕
my shrimp are arriving soon, finally get to add something to my tank !!!
Exciting times 🥳
What would ghost shrimp be considered? Mine do exactly that. Have 20, 3 maybe survive
Thanks for the information. I didn't realize baby shrimp might be so still at the beginning. I've got two fluval h.o.b. .5 gallon breeder boxes with 10 blue shrimp in each of them. One is connected to a 45 gall tank and one to a 20g tank. I might try to implement this mentality. It's been about two months with my oldest batch, only seen one berried female come and go but have not witnessed babies yet. Fingers crossed🤞for both you and I. -Cesar
Thanks for sharing. Would love to hear how you get on 🤞🏻
@@FishKeepingAnswers Thanks dude. Actually found my first shrimplets the next day. My berried momma did good. Can't wait to see more from you
I would be afraid to overfeeding my tank, if you are dedicated to do it for another while I can't wait for your results, fingers crossed Richard and thanks 🙏
I’ll keep you informed. Thanks for taking the time to comment 🤜🏻
Yano guys before commenting on Richard’s videos negative just hear him out fist shhhh just listen
All videos attract ‘negative know it all’ people. I don’t worry about them anymore.
Thanks for your support man 💪🏻🫶🏻
Hey, what do you use as a water treatment? I’m using prime & have hard water here in Dover
@@anthonyyambo6896 I use Prime too 👍🏻
What he is saying is a fact
🫶🏻
My shrimp aren't breeding yet. How long is it supposed to take and what else can I do besides feed them pellets?
They usually breed at around 4 to 6 months old 👍🏻
Does anyone know how to keep mosquitoes off a no filter shrimp tank?
The only way I know is to use a glass
Cover plate or mesh screen
I have not seen the entire video. The answer is probably, yes
Food + hideout + calcium = more babies
Yep 💪🏻
I like the video... but why am I looking up the inside of your nose so much?
Thought you might like to see what was up there 🤷♂️
Overfeeding cause more snails..
Yeah, but this tank mainly has Rabbit Snails. Plus extra Ramshorn Snails mean more Dwarf Puffer food 🥳
@@FishKeepingAnswers true but for people like me I hate snails haha but I know they only do good for the tank, I just can’t stand them.. any recommend what fish that eat snails that can go with shrimp aswell?
More food more worms for sure
