Are there other options comparable to the Oak Leaf? They are out of stock and I cannot find a link to anything similar in the US.

Great tips Mark! I agree it's important to remove any excess moss to increase the water flow. Too much moss is not good

I've just had this learning experience with my nano desk tank, I let the moss get out of control. Definitely a case of too much of a good thing. I've left a generous amount, its great for regulating small tanks, but I know I need to keep removing it when needed.

@@MarksShrimpTanks Mark, your tips like additives and pumping systems really make a difference to us, thank you 🤩 As I know you have your finger on the pulse with this stuff, how are some breeders not using active substrates with Caridina shrimp? Really hope you've got something planned along these lines 🤞

May I ask as I'm new at this ..are snails going to be a problem

@RocsAquatics Ай бұрын

If you're asking about snails in shrimp tanks, no, as a rule, they are not a problem. In fact, many shrimp keepers feel that snails are a very good idea for shrimp tanks. An example would be that Malaysian Trumpet Snails will burrow around inside the substrate, (primarily during the day), and in so doing, they will consume uneaten food and also help to prevent "pockets of trouble" from building up within that substrate, such as ammonia or hydrogen sulfide gas. One more thing to note is that nearly all snails will be healthy in neocaridina water parameters. However, many snail shells will quickly deteriorate - - or at least become very soft and fragile - - in caridina water parameters. But the Malaysian Trumpet Snails can handle those parameters better than most. In many caridina tanks, you will see SOME degradation of the M.T.S. shells. But nevertheless, they will generally live a long life, have babies, and so forth.

Hey Mark, Im a bit in shock when you mentioned to never sent ro with minerals into the tubing and float valves. I never knew this could cause issues. I have been in fact doing so for the past year with a water change on a 2 weekly basis after watching shrimp mania his video about this topic. I never had issues, so far. Are you really, really sure this will cause issues? If so, I really need to start reorganizing things in my shrimp room.

yes for sure, I know I like to do water changes myself but automode would also be nice sometimes.

I wish I could grow moss like this! I can grow Subwassertang but I have no luck with any moss for some reason.

@mahfoozabdullah7028 3 ай бұрын

its jsut my personal experience, I have 2 tanks,with completely different pps, like one is direct tap water(from the borewell), and the other shrimp tank has soft water (RO water). the moss never grew in the main tank,but when i tried to grow it in the shrimp it blossomed into the best moss i have ever seen in my hands. so try changing the water parameters from hard to soft or vice versa. Let me know if this helps

@MarksShrimpTanks 3 ай бұрын

Most ofmy tanks with good moss growth are ADA V1 which is rich in ammonia, thats why these tanks do so well with plant, I also fins subwassertang does better in more nutrient defiecent tanks like soils with no ammonia.
