New video! 😊
Since I got some ✨new shrimp✨I figured I would show you how I drip acclimate them using a marina a breeder box. The marina breeder box has been one of my favourite tools that I regularly use over the years. (For many reasons including temporary housing, observation, selective breeding, holding select shrimp for a customer, photography and drip acclimating)
If you have one, what do YOU use it for?

Hi Shrimp People! I put out a new video today. If you enjoy it, please give it a like! :)
Sometimes shrimp are slow to breed, or stop breeding completely. Over the years I've noticed some things that I believe can cause this to happen.
Hope you have a lovely day! And enjoy your shrimp tanks!

Hello Shrimp people! Check out yesterday’s video if you haven’t already, it’s all about keeping fish and shrimp together. If your goal is breeding shrimp you definitely don’t want to put fish in with them. (Theres always a risk) However I know a lot of hobbyists want to keep a planted community tank.. I give tips discussing good choices so that your shrimp will be comfortable. Hope you shrimp people enjoy. Do any of you have planted fish and shrimp tanks?

I started a new cull tank and well, Some of the shrimp that I thought were Culls turned out to be beautiful. It’s always fun seeing how they turn out. Green jades .. in particular the high-grade dark ones are really tricky when they’re young. Sometimes they’re really pale or even blue and I culled those ones and put them in the tank and now they grew up to he beautiful dark green 😂 be careful who you cull!
The other Culls in this tank were from my black rose and my blue dream aquarium. Most of the black rose Culls matured to be chocolate shrimp. Most of the blue dream culls were just lacking a deep blue colour or had too many dark markings and stayed that way. Its fun to see them together but once the colors start cross breeding they will produce quite a few brown wild type shrimp. Many of the mamas are berried now, so we’ll see what the babies look like over the next few months. I know a lot of shrimp keepers like to keep skittles tank so I want to give you an idea of what can happen when you mix colors. 😊

Welcome! I am a super passionate shrimp hobbyist and breeder sharing my passion for this niche hobby with you fellow enthusiasts. I have been in the shrimp hobby for 10 years and the Aquarium hobby ALL OF MY LIFE. I've learned ALOT along the way - through first hand experiences of both failure followed by great success. (I've bred a HUGE amount of shrimp by now!) I have a dedicated shrimp room with lots of shrimp tanks and I keep Neocaridina and Caridina Species. I am hoping my videos will inspire people, help people succeed and have fun in their shrimp keeping journey!
I am involved on social media and you can find me in a few places...
