This was very helpful thanks for sharing your shrimp videos I never get bored watching you

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

Thank you for watching my friend :)

[@GozMeu]

I would puncture a whole at the entrance side to attach fishingline to. This way they get pulled towards the closed cap and not wedged between the 2 bottle parts.

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

good idea

[@cicco1838]

awesome shrimp bro!!

[@thegiftlady1]

This made me smile 😊

[@jiki1356]

Another awesome video! ❤️

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

Thank you Kelly hows it going ?

[@jiki1356]

Marks Shrimp Tanks Pretty good Mark, still no shrimp in the tank, really just enjoying watching my plants grow for now. I had a little bit of melt on a new plant I added so I put in a little carbon and it seems to have stabilized, even got a little new growth on it too c: I'm excited for my shrimp but I feel kinda scared I'm gonna get them and then kill them somehow in the first week, learning from your videos seriously helps though. ❤️❤️

[@sirdukeusa3289]

[@DamianBloodstone]

Amazing. I was wondering how to catch them easier.

[@Detlefroemisch]

Das ist eine großartige Vorstellung 🦐 Bottle catch

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

[@aquaticjack5463]

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

You are welcome my friend :)=

[@duppy666.]

OMG I saw the thumbnail and thought it was shrimp vs coca Cola! I was like what's Mark been smoking?

[@4funrc11]

Hey, Thx. :) I just watched a similar shrimp trap that was uploaded about ten (10) years ago. I think it was July, 2nd-ish, 2008. He used a single Gatorade bottle, with it sitting upright (bottle bottom) on the substrate. Yeah, his shrimp trap is definitely not multipurpose, seaworthy, like yours. And you have, way too many shrimps. I'm so, so envious... :'○ | :D

[@uncletaz]

...Nice, that'll fix 'em....Thanks mark, yet another FAN-DABBY-DOSEY (I have no idea if this is how you spell it???) Shrimp video...You bring joy and buckets of help to the hobby. I have Cherry Shrimp...loads of them....thanks to you....kind of....thanks...I Think...?

[@Shadelin]

Next show... Spider Traps... Again... great information there...

[@Tatersalade]

Even tho it's an older video I just saw it shared on a Danish FB page. Happy new year Mark

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

Happy new year Dennis :)

[@Tatersalade]

@@MarksShrimpTanks Thanks, Mark. And Happy new year to you and yours too.

[@eltontan7653]

You should try doing crabs as well along with the shrimp, I think it would be pretty awesome. Nice video!

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

I might just do that one day,thank you for the idea !

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

cool you will laugh at this ..from the top of my head kaneechiwa ? hahaha

[@ninak1347]

Nice. One question though. Couldn't the tread be on the other side? thinking that the water will drain out when u take it out cap end first? With the tread on other side u dont ned to put your hand in and turn the bottle. Used a similar trap för catching pleco babies. Didn't work. They were to smart to go in :)

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

I dont mind getting my hand wet and its easy to let them go again this way

[@nickgillespie8234]

Does this prevent stress to the shrimp

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

no I definitely wouldn't leave them in this for a long time

[@YtROrtiz]

I tried this method 1 week ago and I only managed to trap around 100 snails an a baby shrimp haha I've no luck with these. I ended up scooping all my shrimp with small colanders.

[@moanzu]

Already applied, works fine. but all of my shrimps die in the bottle lol xD cause my fault i falling a sleep over night xD

[@jordanleroy19]

Wee bru irn bru bottles should work great for nano tanks

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

Yeah they would, I can get cans of IrnBru here but never seen the bottles yet :D

[@jordanleroy19]

Marks Shrimp Tanks don't think I could do without irn bru

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

Nice you will have lots of baby shrimp soon then ?

[@giuliosalvatori8975]

Marks Shrimp Tanks hopefully I will :) how many babies do red cherries have at a time?

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

[@giuliosalvatori8975]

DO NOT RECOMMEND. Tried to catch 5 neocaridinas, ended up killing my betta (RIP Bob) and 6 guppies.
