I've had one in my tank for 6 years. I've never had a problem with it.

Hey everyone! Just wanted to post a long overdue update. My 1.5 gallon tank is still going strong after 6 years! All I've had to do is top off the water level with distilled water when it gets about an inch low only around once a year. I feed them just 1 tiny shrimp pellet about once every two or th...

I have a 1.5 gallon tank with about 30 shrimp (started with 10 but they've multiplied) and 10 snails. I feed them Ocean Nutrition Shrimp Wafers. Only 1 wafer around every 2 months. It comes with a small spoon that makes it easy to scoop out and feed a single wafer. It's a no brainer and I'm sure you...

Update: My 1.5 gallon tank has now been going strong for 2 1/2 years! Went from 10 shrimp to around 100 now. About 9 months ago I purchased 10 snails from this website. After around 5 months, I stopped seeing any of them. I figured they all died, but the other day I saw an adult snail climbing up th...

Today July 22 2019. I started this tank in February 2016 after breaking open an ecosphere. I added 10 shrimp from this website. They berried and multiplied. It's a very basic simple set up and it has done well for over 3 years! I only feed them one tiny shrimp wafer every 2 months. 4 months ago I in...

This looks fine for feeding your super shrimp. I found the ingredients. It contains spirulina. These shrimp can eat just about any type of fish food. Just don't overfeed.

Yes, there are at least 100. Most of them are still small as they haven't matured into full sized adulthood yet.

Hello Everyone. Just wanted to send an update on my 1.5 gallon Nano Tank. It's been 2 1/2 years since I set up my tank. Since then, the shrimp population has grown from 20 to well over 100! There was a major growth spurt a little over a year ago, but now I think the shrimp have decided they've reach...

My tank is a 1.5 gallon Montana Jar. I started with 20 shrimp, and now there are around 100.

I bought the sea shells on Amazon for $9.99. They do add calcium to the tank, but if you use aragonite sand, that will do the same.

Make sure you added brackish water. Brackish water has half the salinity as ocean water.

Use distilled water. These shrimp are not finicky.

For a few years now, I have been on a crusade to educate people about ecospheres. There are several websites selling these, including through Amazon. I have been posting my "review" on as many sites that will allow me. Amazon has at least 10 different sellers. Here is my review: "Do N...

Update: It's been 9 months since I introduced my 10 shrimp plus 10 new shrimp to my 1.5 gallon tank. After about 5 months, I began seeing berried females and then the birth and growth of several babies. My shrimp population is now around 50 and growing with more berried females. I just want to empha...
