Device in beginning is called 'Mortar and Pestle'. Nice and simple scape, I think it's time to rescape one of my tanks.
wow.. aquascape time lapse, what a rare footage ❤ you even make special mount for the time lapse 😆
Honestly, I expected a bit better footage than this. It appears to be not very smooth because plants were moving too much
You are the only person that legitimately has the best info on shrimps!
Thank you, it's very kind of you!
I loved the time lapse!
Incredible timelapse. Have never see it like that
plants in back looks great👍
The time ops was awesome. Great looking tank.
Thanks Steve!
Gorgeous tank!
Thank you!
Beatiful creation!
Thank you
I Love This!
Omgosh love ur tanks❤
Thank you! It's good to hear!
Loved the video...❤
Thank you 😊
Nice video, Simple and very nice Tank. 👍
Thanks 😊
Noice mate! Watching from down under
I just subbed now after watching a few videos, keep doing the good work! 😊
Awesome! Thank you!
great video, thank you
You are welcome! Thanks for watching
nice!
As always a beautiful Video! And i thought that you will explode after this many Lemonade 😂😂😂 Love the Colors of the Shrimps and it looks all so peaceful!
Thank you so much, I'm glad you liked the tank. Yes had to drink it all🤣
co2 injection for caridina tank reminds me of my experience 2 years ago, my PRL breeds fine, the plants grow beautifully, and when my co2 tank was empty and I decided to stop injecting co2 because the plant already looking good, and then after 2 weeks of stop injecting co2, 50% or more of my caridina died gradually and because it is heavily planted, I didn't notice any dead shrimp and when I noticed it, it's already too late 😅
Lesson learned, co2 injection is okay, but keep it consistent so the water parameters do not swing
Hey Steven, yes I also had a great result with my PRLs with CO2 injection. I think it's works great for caridina because it lowers the PH of the water. I might try to inject it to my new breeding tank as experiment to see if it helps
I hope more people will know you
WOW, TOTALLY EPIC, LOL ;)
Dope video man. Love the time laps. I’m nervous about getting into CO2. That DIY CO2 seems simple enough for me.
Cheers! Just go for it. It's a lot of fun and you don't need to wait for too long for plants to grow!
@@ShrimpMania I understand. I just think that the plants grow super reliant towards the system and when by chance you don’t have co2 they will melt terribly🤷🏽
Maybe use some sponge around the input of the eheim filter so the shrimp don't get sucked up. Your shrimp are beautiful.
Time lapse of your plant growth 👍🏼
I know this video was 9 months ago but is the tank still running and if so, how is it looking now? It looks great at the time of the video. Very nice. Thanks for posting and sharing your knowledge about plants and shrimp. I'm still fairly new to shrimp and your content has been very helpful for me.
You mentioned not knowing the difference between the Cardinals and neon tetra I think while you were at the fish store. The Cardinals have the red stripe the full length of the body, neon do not. Cardinal also get a bit bigger than the neon. There are more differences but these are the basic ones that will be visible at least.

There is co2 generator where the citric acid drop is controlled and the device isn’t expensive, Ziss ZC-11 Co2. I haven’t used it but was thinking of getting one. I did see a review on YT somewhere, might be worth trying.
Thanks for the info! I think I saw it in one of YT videos and it worked ok, I'll see if I can buy it.
A random extreme beginner question. I didn’t see a heater in your amazing tank build. I’m conscious that we don’t have a heater in our small tank(temperate). We have a few minnows and shrimps (my favourites) and they amaze me. I could sit and watch them for hours. Do I need a heater to add different kinds of shrimp. We have amano shrimp at the minute which seem to be thriving (but not breeding yet)
Great ideas by the way.
Because I have lots of tanks in my shrimp room it is cheaper to heat the entire room than individual tank
Hi @shrimpmania, thank you for the amazing content and i must say the tank, fish and shrimps look gorgeous! I have a question though, you mentioned you're running CO2 24/7. Isn't it dangerous for fish the shrimp at night as the plants are also releasing CO2 at night? How do you balance that? I'm afraid mine would die of excess CO2 if I leave it on 24/7.
Thank you for kind words. I heard about this issue but with small amount of CO2 (less than 1 dps) and with good surface agitation that shouldn't be a problem. My shrimp and fish all doing fine in that tank.
Great video! Question please, what KH are you running on this tank? Im setting up my own co2 planted caridina shrimp and ive read to not have zero KH if using CO2 due to ph swings. My dilemma is i don't want too much kh as i really want shrimplets too. Nice content, from a fellow uk shrimp hobbyist.
Amazing video!🎉 Can I ask what camera you use?
Sony a7slll
Awesome! Thanks for sharing the details of setup. Do you only add Micro and Potassium? Are you dosing Macro?
Now I only dose a little bit of micro nothing else the plants still growing good and healthy
@@ShrimpMania Great!
Looking good my guy, what's your preferred neo, green jade's or emeralds ? Still undecided what i wanna get, hope your belly was all good after them 2 bottles of lemonade 😂🤣
Thanks man, my fav neo is a blue dream, never had green jade or emeralds before so you have to decide it by yourself😊
Nice video! Amazing yellow pinto shrimp! Do you know where I can get them, I am in the U.S. and they seem to be sold out almost everywhere?
No idea I'm form UK
Did they end up breeding? I would love to do a display/breeding high tech tank - how much KH did you use?
. I’ve had good success with with planted tanks but want to dive in a little deeper.
What are the small plants you like to glue to the mopani wood, I see in your videos?
Thanks for the content 🤘🏼
I normally use anubias and bucefalandra on the wood
Can you share link of CO2 generator I am not able to find it online.
Can you make a video on the sugar Co2 method please? And how do you know you're not overdosing the tank with Co2? Thank you. I want Co2 but I'm new to it.
Yes I made DIY CO2 reactor with yeast and sugar method in this video ruclips.net/video/uTQtZ5rzaqc/видео.html
Schön teilen mein Freund ❤
Incredible, the miracle of Co2! How long can you use this co2 formula you made?
it last about 3 weeks at 1bps
Hey mate where did you get that co2 system from cheers
I think I’ve got it from ebay
friend. i have a bag of ada lighht, and a bag of mastersoil... can i use one of them? or better buy ada original? i wanna keep fancy tiger shrimps
Go for it, they both good soils and would work just fine for fancy tigers
What shrimp are in there
just mix of everything
Bro did you really drink all that lemonade?! Haha
Only one bottle 😂
Does running c02 24/7 cause any issues? I’ve heard it can make algae grow crazy
At night when the light is off it doesn't matter for plants or algae if you run co2 or not they can't grow in the dark. the only reason why people switch CO2 off at night is that it's not good for life stock - plants release oxygen and consume co2 in the daytime, At night they sleep so there will be a lot of unused co2 and not much oxygen. It''s not good for life stock. If youyou put an air pump with airstone connected to a timer and run it at night that will solve this problem.
@@ShrimpMania that’s what it was. I’m fairly new to the hobby but a couple months in. I’ve been having mine on co2 on a timer. But I haven’t really been getting any ph fluctuations people are talking about. I measure during the day and at night and at about 6.1regardless. Could this be because it’s a bigger set up in a 75gallon.
@@ShrimpMania also thanks for replying.
That's a lot of lemonade....
i thought the same thing :)
I can’t figure out how you guys plant your plants with the big tweezers and the plants doesn’t come out! Every time I try to do that the plant comes out when I try to pull the tweezers out of the dirt. 😂
I know what you mean, it happens to me too. The trick is you need to wiggle the tweezers when you pull them out it helps the soil to fill that space and hold the plant
@Gone Shrimp'n I've had this problem before but I was watching ADAview & the simple tip from Daichi Araki is to always keep the tweezers angled and the best success of the carpet and shorter root plants is 1" minimum for the stems 3" - 4" minimum and more soil = always is easier to get everything in the 1st time 🤺
I have used 3 chinese zrdr co2 kits and 2 of them have had problems with slower and slower release which then turned into over delivery during my absence risking killing all the fish, valves chemically corroded over time until massive release. I absolutely do not recommend it, my kits were all aluminum. Is a very dangerous way in my opinion.
I totally agree. I had the same problems with this kit that’s why I switched to yeast and sugar at the end before I added fish and shrimp
Indonesian translate please
Helló, Please add Turkish to your subtitles.
Don't keep zebra fish and shrimp together
Neon kill young shrimp frend ...I have on past ... Not good / not working
I tell you the secret: 95% of that shrimp are males, i don’t think there will be any babies 😂
@@ShrimpMania ok Frend
