Debunking Shrimp Myths Building Knowledge, Not Fear and we are hiring
ua-cam.com/channels/zmxPBBXlxxQhbTDRwyqaow.htmljoin
In the world of shrimp-keeping, misinformation often spreads faster than algae on an uncycled tank. Myths about miracle products and quick fixes have led many hobbyists down a frustrating path of dependency and wasted resources. But the truth is, the secret to a thriving shrimp ecosystem lies not in bottles or additives-it lies in trusting the natural processes within your tank. Beneficial bacteria, the unsung heroes of your aquarium, have evolved over millions of years to maintain stability. They don’t need constant interference; they need respect and a stable environment to work their magic.
When we shift our focus from fear-based solutions to building knowledge, we empower ourselves to make informed, confident decisions. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned breeder, it’s time to embrace patience, trust the process, and let nature lead the way. After all, shrimp-keeping is about creating harmony-not controlling chaos

Hey Bene! This is much-needed information. I just had this discussion with a friend last week. Thank you for your work on this channel! :)
Most welcome!
Another inspiring video, Bene! Nice job.
Appreciate the kind word!
Sir, is the yellow ground Akadama or ADA light?
It is dennerle quartz the active soil is now in the basket.
@ Does this mean that the soil will have to be cleaned with a siphon after some time ?
Hello Benny from Russia👋... your feed is the best… I just didn't figure out when to remove the bags of bacteria from the aquarium... I overexposed them, and when I took them out, they smelled of hydrogen sulfide)
Awesome
Hi. I'm Lithuanian, keeping aquariums from 1986y, and shrimps for last 10 years. I agree with that, what You saying. What is better way to contact with You?
my email or fb messenger will be great
Keeping a well-maintained tank says allot about ones personality. Most importantly the patience one has for this hobby. Big respect 😃

Refreshing video. I've lost so much moneh because of these issues and felt like giving up many times. It's people like you that will keep this hobby going and inspire the next generation. Respect 🤙
Does he sell his shrimps I couldn't find them anywhere for sale
i find it funny how big emphasis there is put between the quantity&quality, like wedge driven between the two like politics left and right. while i find it ideal to have best of both. breeding masses often produces few peak quality ones or completelly new ones, which then is seperated for the control batches for higher quality ones. and which then are seperated for further controll batches.
@@syrenet I know right! First thing is you need to know how to breed them in the first place then you can be selective breed if that's what you prefer. Some aquarium hobbyist just wanted some shrimps in their mix community tank. The shrimps are just part of their aquarium ecosystem and not the sole main focus. Selective breeding can command a higher price and keeping it that way. I hope Im wrong but my gut feeling is this is the hidden agenda in pushing everyone to selective breed. I myself do selective breeding as well for my own interest dont get me wrong. I just want everyone even little kids to be able to enjoy shrimp keeping. Not everyone can afford hundreds of dollar shrimps but they do deserve the shrimp keeping enjoyment.
this dude talks a big game but honestly his shrimp look amazing
@@theL33Tm4ster thanks for the kind words
Hello! Did I hear you correctly in the video? When you drip acclimate shrimp that are new to your shrimp room, do you drip acclimate for only 15 minutes?
If seller and my water parameters is the same or similar, then we just float the bag to match the temperature, and then net the shrimp and release or simply releasing it into the tank. If the parameters is widely different, we still float the bag and ensure the temp. matches, then do a 15 minutes drip. in all competition tanks, there is no dripping or anything, just directly into the tank, and if the shrimps are strong and healthy, in general there will be no issue.
Hey Russian shrimp keepers and welcome back to my channel
😮
Ahhh My shrimp are on UA-cam!! 100% facts, though. I don't believe I considered myself a true breeder until I started taking it seriously and line breeding with select adults. Before I would produce so many shrimp, and it would look cool in videos, but once I started working on the quality, I was truly able to produce some stunning specimens.
@@Shrimpscapes can't go wrong
Sound is much better on the last two videos 👍
Thanks for the feedback.
Muhteşem güzellikler
Thank you for the kind words
? Do you recommend the nano, or small aquarium co-op sponge filter for a 10 gallon caridina tank? Thank you for your videos!!
I use the mid. For low bioload. And large for higher bioload on a 10g. Or I use a mid and a qanvee on a high bioload 10G.
Thank you!
How about no water change? Possible?
how to raise nitrates?
Audio is buggy for me but still great video
Appreciate the feedback on the audio!
How do you get your shrimp to have long whiskers? I want to replace my colony with shrimp with long whiskers. Did you buy them or did you breed them?
Bred out
@ShrimpSanctuary do you sell them?
Ping me on msg or email
Thank you for this. I'm about to receive my first order of Caridina shrimp and I've been so focused on TDS and PH that I hadn't considered low Nitrates.
Glad this was helpful!
Hey Russian shrimp keepers and welcome back to my channel
I have so much plants, my ammonia, nitrite and nitrates haven't read above 0 in a year, and I don't do excessive water changes for it either, it just happens!
I haven't done a water change in months, and I also have naturally near 0 ammonia, nitrite and nitrate (non of my water tests can detect any)
Plants are a natural filter!
Thank you very much for this deep dive video 😊
Glad it was helpful!
What a nice shrimp ...
Thanks for the kind words
I learned this one the hard way a while back, thinking I was doing my shrimp a solid by providing large, frequent water changes. Now, I do decent sized water changes (still regularly) and also dose a small amount of a complete fertilizer, and my colonies are thriving!
Yep, balance is key.
Great info Bene!! (Nice shout out to the Bloomfields!)
Yea, gotta support the good ones.
Perfect audio
Thanks.
Audio is so much better, no longer have to use my headphones 😂🎉
