I've been looking for some shrimp tank pics and I really
haven't found any... would you guys mind sharing your
shrimp tanks?

If you search for "shrimp" under any of the tank journal threads, you'll find tons. I see two on the first page of the main journal subforum right now.

This is the one I'm cycling right now for my BKK (journal link in my sig).

Here's today's pic.

Ok thanks man! Tank is looking good.

 

[Betta Maniac]

It looks way better now (also has a large spone filter in that empty back corner now). I need to take new pics tonight.

My first post here. I will start a thread tomorrow for some advice as most of my shrimplets seem to be dying after a month or so (

It is a Fluval Ebi pretty much 'out of the box'

 

[Kinection]

I'm getting really good ideas from you guys!

Here's mine. The moss is scattered in the back & the rocks in the front are there in hopes of growing some biofilm for the shrimp to eat

Hey Geto,
How do you like the HMF?? I am thinking of setting one up in a 40 breeder.
Thanks,
Tim

So far, so good. Only been up a bit so I'll have to see the long term but the theory behind it is sound, shrimp loves sponges, big sponge wall should be happy shrimp. lol. This tank is more an experiment about setting up a tank without active substrate and keeping, breeding and raising high grade crystal shrimp in a near neutral water. Using RO water and bit of Ebiken Sosei, my water is about 6.7-6.8pH, bee mineral plus for the RO and the HMF filter and that's it.

You must not have looked hard. There are hundreds of tank journals on the topic and a specific shrimp section lol.

Your tank really inspired me. I can't wait to
rescape my tank.

Thanks! When I figure out what different plants I'm going to try the only plants I will keep inside is the java moss, rotala indica & maybe the anubias. All the other stuff just grows way to fast, here is the tank last week.
