The Secret to Thriving Shrimp: Stable water parameters and regular Water Changes

[@gregwilson5910]

30% water change every three days in my 3 litre tank. Red Caridinas breeding profusely. I use water from my pond to avoid any chemicals. Great channel Ray 😀

[@RWAquariumPages]

Very nice! I'm glad to see everyone does it slightly differently. That's amazing and I'm happy for your success. My channel is documenting my journey, I make mistakes all the time and wanted to share that with everyone. Have an amazing day

Great tips as usual Ray. Regular water changes and stable water parameters are the key to success indeed!

[@RWAquariumPages]

it's an interesting topic, since consistency is key, there's also the argument for less or no water changes, but i found the most my caridina tanks can go without a water change is about 3-4 weeks then i start having some small issues, thanks for the support

Thanks for the video. 15% wc weekly is working well in my caridina tank

[@RWAquariumPages]

15% is a great range to work with, thanks for sharing and i'm glad you're successful with your caridina shrmp! keep on shrimping!

Hi... During tank cycling for caridina... Should i on my chiller?

[@RWAquariumPages]

Don't need chiller, some say that warmer water cycles faster causing bacteria growth to be faster

[@raihanrahmat1483]

When you change water You change the parameters right? Do less water changes...

[@RWAquariumPages]

Close, if you don't do water changes from evaporation and waste the water parameters change, so you're setting it back to the optimal state

[@CoolNumber1]

If u have a lot of plants, I don't see any point in doing water change.@@RWAquariumPages

[@aqualungs77]

Wow 90 tds, i do 120.. maybe i will change. I also do 15% but I may go to 10%

[@RWAquariumPages]

That's true, everyone's tank is different , the best is to do what works

[@aqualungs77]

@RWAquariumPages I'm newer to Caridina and still learning. Some do no waterchanges, some say small to not use up your soil lol. It's crazy how really there is room for error/difference!

I would like to ask you to tell me the reason for the hunching of the backs of a few-week-old shrimp babies
