Show off your shrimp tank!

[jcolon]

What's scary is I started with 14 in my RCS tank the last week of Sept ... So I've quadrupled the population in a month and a half. Hopefully I'll be able to $ell a couple to some LFS's. To say I wasn't expecting this so soon is an understatement.
I though cockroaches breed like mad ... These RCS are putting roaches to shame!

It's my 220 gallon red crystal shrimp tank, I will be getting more pics of it and them soon

[AngelWings]

Sounds like you guts are over run with shrimp. Anyone want to sell any? I'd like 15-ish of the rcs or crs. Send me a pm if interested.

Thanks!

220 gallon shrimp tank? wowza!

Just for the record, angelwings, RCS and CRS are very different. RCS stands for Red cherry shrimp, CRS stands for Crystal Red shrimp, They have very different care requirements.

[AngelWings]

Ah thanks! I didn't realize they had such different care requirements. I've had red cherry shrimp before and loved them.

I have recently got into keeping shrimp and I'm really enjoying them so far.. I'd love to see what AA members have and the tank setups. Post your pics!

[Brian_Nano12g]

Here's my first shrimp tank... high tech setup so I hope my shrimp do okay. I have Tangerine Tigers and Red Rilis. I had 5 berried TT's in which two hatched their eggs already so I have babies!!!

I know this is freshwater but heres my marine only has 2 cleaner shrimp in it

[Brian_Nano12g]

Marine shrimp are cool too! Thanks for the post. Anyone else? LOL

[Sam870o]

Mines 40 gallon planted.
It has:
10 rcs
4 cardinal tetras
5 neon tetras
5 glo light tetras
4 mystery snails
1 bambo shrimp

[Psylk87]

Mine isn't as pretty as everyones here. It has been fully set up for about a week (meaning with the shrimp and plants in it). It is a 5.5 gallon and has RCS.

I'm a newbie at this I don't have a shrimp but want one in the future( I currently have a 20G with 12 fish, various tetras) how difficult are shrimp tanks to setup and maintain?

[zach_1_6]

My regular 5 gal newly redone. Only some rcs atm!

Not too hard! I did a write-up on setting up and maintaining a shrimp tank: http://www.aquariumadvice.com/forums...nk-238178.html

[Brian_Nano12g]

Nice write-up Bud! It should be a sticky on the inverts section... Oh I just checked your threads, didn't even realize you started a post your shrimp tank pics thread like this... We should consolidate the threads and keep them going!

Anyway, care to share some pics of your shrimp tank(s)?
