I've mentioned this before - I have a container pond on my balcony with a filter, aeration but no heating. The neocaridina are huge compared to my indoor heated tanks. They stay out all winter. It was just an experiment and I used it to put my cull shrimps in. Maybe the cold makes shrimps grow bigger so it would be interesting to hear if anyone else has had a similar experience. The temperature outdoors in the UK has been around -3° at night and the shrimp are all thriving and producing babies.

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

well Mick the true secret to long life is apparently the cold, eating less and conserving energy.

[@ragingcalmness7815]

great video man, and here i was under the delusion that hornwort produced an algea inhibitor, yet you were pulling string algea like spaghetti from the tank! RIP my dreams of using hornwort in a filter setup 🤣

Hey Mark, in this video you showed a drain and fill type of system that you attached to the side of the tub. Could you please do a video that explains more how you do those water changes? I have recently got started with shrimp and I find that it’s extremely hard to do water changes on the small tank without fear of sucking up little shrimp, baby guppies, etc. Thanks!

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

use an old pair of womans tight cut to fit over the end, hold in place with rubber band. :)

[@btreatz]

I completely nuked four tanks back in June to try and remove every last piece of duckweed and still to this day I'll find the odd random piece floating around my tanks :0

[@andreasurace4386]

See, I have the opposite issue in my tank, can’t get the duckweed to grow for the life of me

[@btreatz]

@@andreasurace4386 oh really? Do you have issues growing other plants or is it just the duckweed? 🧐

I took such care to never get any in my tanks. Almost happened twice but I caught it before it was too late.

[@andreasurace4386]

@@btreatz only tried duckweed in my tanks before, recently introduced some Amazon frogbit but it came in bad shape so who knows how it’ll go.

[@You_Do_Care]

@@typicallyusual6984 Floater plants such as duckweed are amazing to have in any fish tank, with of course a bubbler or fan to break the water surface. They will keep your ammonia in check and it’s pretty easy to maintain.

My largest female shrimp grow to comparable size to the one in the video. I'd go with the temperature hypothesis. I only heat my aquarium when it's below 18C or so. Downside is that I see plenty of saddled females, but almost no berried ones.

[@yssyhudson1023]

Wonderful video Mark 😊 It is super satisfying clearing the floaters! I love seeing your fish/plecos with your shrimp colonies. I wonder if you know any types of fish that can live with soft water shrimp like bee and crystal shrimp?🦐🐠

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

there probably will be loads, hill stream loaches maybe I think they might be from the same place.

[@yssyhudson1023]

@@MarksShrimpTanks thanks very much 😊

[@Helveteshit]

I reckon the colder temps might cause the shrimps metobolism to slow down, causing them to grow less fast, ensuring a better build genetically. Not to mention, size. Since like a tree, they might gather more energy for their moulting due gathering more energy before each moult.

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

yes I actually think you are correct, you see it in the animal kingdom if the water is colder the animals do tend to live longer and grow bigger, saying that the temp is really just 1-2c colder at around 20c compared to my other tanks.

[@lesenegalais]

@@MarksShrimpTanks I'm not a biologist, but since the water is colder it is able to disolve more oxygen and the shrimps are better able to breath, hence growing larger in size. That's why ancients arthopods were much larger than would be currently possible, bevause the oxygen level was noticeably higher than what it is in modern times, and why people who live in mountains are usually shorter than people living by the sea.

[@DeepDesaiEnt]

Okay so from this I understand that keeping endler’s and neocaridina shrimps together in a tank does not mean the shrimplets will all be eaten eh? I’ve started up my first ever planted tank and currently have some blue neocaridina along with ramshorn snails. The tank cycled really well and after i added the shrimp they all seem really happy with loads of hidings spaces in my subwassertang, cholla woods and multiple stem plants. I’m planning to add about 5-6 chilli rasboras and 3 Endler’s (2 F 1 M ratio) in no hopes of breeding for a profit but just for my satisfaction to give it a try and see all of them be a peaceful community with healthy reproduction.

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

They will be eaten if you dont feed the endlers enough.

[@DeepDesaiEnt]

@@MarksShrimpTanks Ahh okay! So there is a likely chance if in case they're underfed. I'm so confused whether to keep it one school of fish or mix it up haha. Thanks anyway! Great video and info!

[@Dylan-ok6ft]

That’s looking real good! Duckweed would be perfect if it didn’t cling to your hands, tools, arm hair, end up in your hoodie, etc! 🤣

[@Tippler0611]

Get this, I've never been able to keep duckweed until recently. Seems I need bigger floaters like water lettuce to absorb the surface distortion and the duckweed will grow behind it. Often the floaters that get caught in the java moss when I mess with the tank is enough food for my small colony for a week or more.... Not too shabby

[@jakefwtx4214]

I love that you have a tub on the floor that looks much, much better than any of my actual tanks.

[@theboesmani]

You can eiliminate Duckweed completely but you have to be very stubborn and clean the surface every week until you are successful . A quarter of one leaf is enough to start an infestation . It will be interesting to see what the extra light does for the plants .

[@_Kensexotics]

What are you water parameters? Mainly PH GH and temps i plan to breed these soon and your parameters seem to be perfect i would like to copy😊

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

ph is 7.2 and gh is just a 6, kh is 2

Don't they say at lower temps they grow bigger and higher they grow faster. Maybe lower all your tanks by 2 degrees see if they all get bigger.

It was much better after right, I have a feeling that if you have duckweed the problem is just lazyness in the person😂

@@MarksShrimpTanks Your comb method was the greatest idea in the world for duckweed, took at little time a the usage of a net too, but I have been duckweed free in all my tanks for a couple of year now ... 👍

[@jessicasinclair323]

Possibly the female endlers are devouring the majority your baby shrimp. Just a thought. Nice wee indoor pond though. Had goldfish for years and they've never eaten the dreaded duckweed. Once you have duckweed it's really difficult to get rid of it. Although the comb idea is ingenious 💡

[@SquiresAquatics]

I like it!

[@chewyhoe7081]

Im trying to start a Caridina shrimp tank soon, any recommendations on where I should begin? I already have Neocaridina and have success

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

Yes, get an RO water filter it will save you loads of hassle if you can.

[@ajkandroid8662]

And get low ph thats the hardest imo even compared to gh 🤣🤣🤣

[@EverydayAquarist]

Tubs are the way forward

[@bloatus7611]

Most of the duckweed I have now, unfortunately for me, doesn't fully mature so they're like seeds. While they also float any disturbance in the water can cause them to go everywhere. I don't have a shrimp net but I feel like it might help me out here.

[@michellefields6910]

Hey Mark! You said this was a cull tank. Does it serve a purpose now other than just being cool?

Curious if you know what your water is treated with in Norway since it doesn’t have chlorine?

Its treated with nothing, more than half of Norway is mountains so we have very high reservoirs and the water is tested for stuff like ecoli regularly. we don't have the same issues as other countries with sewage run off and agricultural issues because of this.

Hey Mark, offtopic.. but i was reading up on fish tb last night and started worrying all night. Can shrimp also get tb and did you have any incidents in your shrimp keeping time? Info is a bit flaky on the net, but seems also shrimp can get it but i didnt see any images how you would spot it specifically with shrimps. Even tho its rare, seems like fish tb isnt that concerning as the real tb, but still, getting nasty skin rash aint nice. Thanks!

Hej Mark. I am getting a 70x70x23 cm tank, LxWxD. I am thinking shrimp and plants. I am asking, it won,t be a problem for shrimps with a tank so deep? Many thanjs Kent.
