-
Tank Size: Provide a tank of at least 20 gallons or more, as these filter-feeding shrimp require space.
-
Water Parameters: Maintain stable conditions with a temperature range of 72-78°F (22-26°C), a pH level of 6.5-7.5, and soft to moderately hard water.
-
Filtration: Effective filtration is crucial to maintain water quality and provide organic particles for the Bamboo Shrimp to feed on.
-
Aquascape: Create an environment with strong water movement, ample surfaces for feeding, and hiding spots. Plants in the tank help provide hiding and feeding opportunities.
-
Tank Mates: Bamboo Shrimp are peaceful and compatible with non-aggressive, community fish. Avoid fin-nipping species.
-
Diet: These shrimp are filter feeders, relying on microorganisms and tiny organic particles in the water for food. Ensure a well-established tank with sufficient food sources.
