Hello everybody.
I used to grow RCS in tank with tap water.
I'm from Israel and our water here are very hard (KH 17).
I guess you understand that they didn't live for long time (couple weeks until the last one died).

Now I have RO system so life are much simpler.
What are the best values (PH, KH, NO3 and Phosphat) for RCS breeding?

DaMN.

Mix 85% R/O water with 15% tap water and that should do the trick or reconstitue your water with Seachem Equilibrium, R/O right or similar product.

You miss understood me, I didn't mean the Cherry shrimps but the Crystal Red Shrimp.
Can you please give me exact values ?

Welcome to the forum, but before you post any other questions, please read the forum rules. I don't want another member to get banned due to poor habits learned in other sloppy forums. Read the articles, and look up the shrimp in question on the shrimp varieties page. Once you've done that, feel free to search the forum for the answers that are already there for CRS. Once that is done, feel free to ask for clarification.

I second badflash's post. I suggest you follow it. And the abbreviation for crystal red shrimp is CRS not RCS. RCS is "red cherry shrimp" so nobody misunderstood you, you just said it wrong.
