Sharing Shrimp Video


Shrimpy Daddy

Recommended Posts

Hi all,
 
We have been sharing a lot of shrimp photos. However, there are hardly any videos being shared. As such, I am starting this thread for everyone to share their amazing shrimp video.
 
I will start the ball rolling. In the past two days, I had shot a couple videos leveraging on my mirroless camera with macro lens and GoPro placed inside the tank. Hence, I will share these two video first. Mirrorless camera and GoPro are not the bet camera around, thus the quality may not be on par with dedicated camcorder. As such, please pardon the quality. (^_^")y

I'm still experimenting with GoPro. Hopefully in future, I could obtain close-up video that documents their life in the tank. :D

They are gorgeous shrimp Shrimp Daddy. What a great idea for feeding them the powdered food, is it just a piece of thin acrylic pipe that you syringe the food into?

Hi buck & jenbenwren,

 

That feeding tool is made of a snipped disposable pipette and a PP tube. The disposable pipette is acting a a bulb pump. Below are the picture of that tool:

LOL!!! There are many such devices already out in the market, thus no point creating it. ;)

Usually, you can find them in marine aquarium shop where they sell it to feed coral. :D

      One interesting thing he mentioned was "Bacteria pressure", which I guess just means number of bacteria around.  Yet I see all these other videos from shrimpkeepers bragging about how much bacteria their filtering system holds. Also interesting is no mention of using anti-biotics to treat bacterial infection.  I think that has fallen out of favor recently.

      It has been a few weeks now and I have done a couple of large water changes. I tested the water parameters this morning, GH6 and KH2, TDS 140 and PH 7.5. Obviously the PH is off but there isn't anything in the tank that should cause the PH to rise to this figure so I will just run the tank for another month with 10% weekly water changes (probably just with RO water) and see where we are at that point. The RO water tests at PH6, and the KH and GH in the tank could come down as they are at the upper limits for Caridina shrimps! There are only about 10 very small snails in there at this point, but they seem to be doing well enough.

      I believe these to be very rare in Australia so you may even consider making it a longer term plan and produce your own by starting with the best CRS you can get as that is where the pure lines started! Depends how patient and interested in the project you are, but would save money as well? If I recall correctly it takes from 8 generations of selective breeding? They sell them at micro aquatic shop but do not ship to Western Australia, but that means they are available in Australia. https://microaquaticshop.com.au/products/pure-red-line-grade-ss-shrimp Good luck and just maybe smeone on here may point you in the right direction or be able to supply you with some.
