I have loved this series with Glen. I have learned so much esp in regard to feeding.

[@Mrgasman1978]

this video is so juicy and powerful. so much content in just 8 minutes. great job mate. 1 thing i'd like to add is that PH works in a very crazy way. it works on power of 10, so a PH of 4 is 10 times more acidic that a PH of 5 and 100 times more acidic than a PH of 6

[@arcedavida]

Just got into the shrimp/snail keeping back in Sept and its been a fun ride. I never knew how much enjoyment you can get from just watching cherry shrimp and mystery snails. Really informational, love the series with Glen guys!

[@DelkaSable]

I had no a single thought that watching snails can be so enjoyable. Have only snails in my aquarium, gotta get some shrimps too.

[@snugloaf]

Got my shipment of Bug Buffet all the way out here in Canada a couple weeks ago, everything in my tank goes nuts for it, shrimp, killis, corys, snails, I understand if some people don't like the constant promo but it just reminds me how awesome your food actually is - you should be proud dude!

[@chineseman8595]

Hey im from canada too but i was wondering if you live in BC, ive been wanting to buy the bug buffet as well but im not sure if they ship to bc canada

[@UniqueSouls]

I just bought shrimp off you so this is PERFECT timing 🥰. Im literally obsessed with breading shrimp and I got my first blue dreams off you!

[@staychill6864]

Glen is so smart, i wish he can continue uploading on his channel more n more vids , chrimps and endlers.

[@Tsheets333]

I’ve been waiting for this topic forever!!!

[@thilakalpha565]

I love your videos, you are kind of my mentor. I started building my aquarium shop based on your videos and ideas. Thank you so much 👍.

[@marcruic3556]

I found cherrys breed like crazy at 82F but don't live as long. I like the longer vids, but these style vids is your bread and butter. Keep up the good content.

[@keyz4prez237]

I got my daughter 4 red Rili shrimp last year now i got like 300 and i sold over 200 they keep popping up more and more every week 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@Cleeon]

Congratulations

[@gudynator4245]

I have 4 cristals shrimps but i dont know if its male or female and my water its 6.3 to 6 .7 some tips ?

[@Cleeon]

@@gudynator4245 make sure your water ph bellow 6.5, slowly, decrease it. I have experience with them, yes they can breed even with ph 7, but they do better with ph around 6.5 to 5.5 please be careful, do it slowly and gradually, because with the change of ph or other parameters, it seems they need to have new skin to adapt/molting, and that's risky, irregular molting. If your shrimps is adult. The males always swimming around, they're slim and very active, the females ia opposite, they're stocky, sometimes just do what they like on spot, not actively move there and here.

[@gudynator4245]

@@Cleeon ok i will make a new acuarium with moss and coconut shells

[@Cleeon]

@@gudynator4245 yes that's suitable for them, make sure you put that coconut shell in water (purified/ro water is better) for at least 2 night to release its tannins and other, before use into aquarium

[@rynow1992]

Definitely learned some good info here... I've always failed at these guys but ready to try again

[@RWAquariumPages]

great video, love glen's tips! got to remind myself to stop over feeding my shrimp! can't wait till more of my shrimp breed! can't wait for the next video.

[@jayblomquist3339]

Thanks you are a great teacher. I would say best in the You tube world ❗

[@TheVapSter]

Great video. Short and to the point.

[@harryfp1494]

Months ago my crs arrived only one had made it . Wensday I ordered my other crs Oder so this comes in just in time . I know my tanks healthy as heck

[@alexanderpopov3587]

Very helpful information based on experience, thank you!

[@Jeannie.B]

I learned something new: no ceramic media. 🤯 I use a sponge filter and hob with ceramic media and I have kh creep. Now I know why. Thank you!!!!! The ceramic media will be removed asap.

[@voultronix761]

Agreed, I feel like a fool . Especially when so many of us choose special rocks because of kh

[@Cleeon]

Same here, and I was kill too many shrimps, just to realize this, Glen is very genius. Ok, so not rocks and no filter media again for crystal shrimps, but I know neo media company from Korea🇰🇷, have some filter media which bring down the ph, how you think about it?

[@mt1541]

Very helpful info; thank you! Now I know what I've been doing wrong and how to change it!

[@barry8692]

My tap water KH is around 2, so hopefully that is enough. I do find that all of my tanks have an acidic PH. Very helpful video, Thankyou.

[@Cleeon]

I suggest to get down your kh, but you say your ph is acid with kh 2, may I know the value of your water ph?

[@Tomy_Yon]

Hehe, a shrimp combo. 😊 very nice. 🦐

Love to know what substrate your using please ❤

[@jonathantanner9098]

What substrate is glen using to breed his shrimps???

[@UnknownLoser-j1l]

hey man, love the work you have put into your little fish world i only dream of getting into the hobby like you but I'm just young and honestly have no idea how to start, i was wondering what 20-gallon tanks you use for breeding fish?

[@nrledits4]

Will thay be on the website,love to get some and try breed.

[@rensei1986]

how offen he water change and how much ? nice video thank you

[@pattykip]

nice one nick

[@RavineDriver]

How do you get the glass green? I’ve had growing colonies for a couple years, yet my glass does not grow algae.

[@kimvjohnstone6491]

What is a good product for fish with disease?

[@kartikpawar4437]

[@thijs9603]

I have a question about whats being talked about around the 4 minute mark. What is the Otto's he is talking about to get the brown algae off? Maybe I'm just hearing it wrong because I'm not a native English speaker.

[@shibibi1]

Otto is the shortened name for Otocinclus. A small, peaceful algae eater

[@slamboy66]

My shrimp love shrimp pellets .🍤🦐🍤

[@kiranghodke5]

ideal tank size to breed those shrimps?

[@davidho4252]

Hi, what does he mean when he says he gets rid of brown algae with autos? At around 4:02?

[@zoetvanham]

Otocinclus algae eating fish

[@maxtronsk8]

what is the lowest PH for crystal red shrimps?

[@33ttpat10]

What moss was used in the black and white car. tank?

[@shibibi1]

Subwassertang moss

[@bigcatgaming3909]

Does glenn have a website??

[@2011Illumination]

Another option to lower ph for already low kH water= phosphoric acid food grade. *not direct put into tank

[@DetectiveLopez.]

Did you ask him what brand of soil he uses to buffer the ph down

[@Cleeon]

I leave this comment, in case the answer is coming

[@naomipoort1547]

I am thoroughly confused. When I research BTOE shrimp the water parameters are really different to what is specified in the video. He also breeds BTOE I saw in an earlier video. Whats the trick for those?

[@Cleeon]

I'm sure same parameters as this video, also ideal with the tiger shrimps

[@The_brain_train]

No way this is your latest video I just bought shrimp to breed 😂😂😂

[@jqc5]

do you use a chiller for your water?

[@Cleeon]

Maybe that room have some air conditioner

[@elijahelkins3264]

What does he use to get rid of brown algae. I didnt understand

[@shibibi1]

He uses the Otocinclus dwarf sucker fish

[@Cleeon]

Hmmm .... This give me answer why I kill so much caridina crystal shrimps variants, because I use some filter media

[@susanconger968]

Can you please make a video on pleco breeding 🎉

I would love to not be a shrimp killer.

[@ammarabdalhade2286]

Hello, I am a huge fan of you and the truly wonderful videos you produce, but I would like to ask you a request. I would like you to say in the next video your wishes to stop the killing of civilians in Palestine by the Israeli settler government.

[@Cleeon]

Friend, we know your sad and surely gave empathy, but this a aquarium hobbyist channel😊

[@AquaGardenZen]

First lol ❤

[@Daniladub78]

They dont breed:(

[@itorishime]

i get so confused with reuploads ;--;

[@TheGalacticFalcone]

Hi umm why dont uou try breeding biger fish like oscars because you can make more money out of them

[@teagancombest6049]

You really can't. At my store we sell a 3" Oscar for $35 USD. We sell a neocaradina shrimp for $6.66 USD. It takes SO much more than 5x the time and money to breed Oscars and raise them to 3" than it does to breed shrimp. And that's just cherry shrimp. Cardinals sell for around $10 each!

[@Cleeon]

Crystal shrimps and their variants, have more expensive value, compared with the weight and size of the fish

[@MurderBong]

F. OK. IM WAY WAY OVER FEEDING.. I THOUGHT IF THEY WERE WELL FED, HAPPY, THEY ‘F’. BUT JUST LET THEM GO TO IT IN THE MOSS N PLANTS, EH?! BETWEEN THIS AND YOURBUCKET.I AM WAY OVER THINKINGTHIS.

[@MurderBong]

I ‘POWDER’ FEED THEM EVERY FEWDAYS, THEY GET VEGGIES, AND ALGEA PELLETS. OK . NEW METHOD. ‘AUSIE AUSIE AUSIE!’ FROM A CANADIAN!
