    Just watched your video. Your shrimps are very red but that may be due to your pink FL light. I am a using a pink FL light and it gives a really nice hue to them. I'm also keeping some opae ula but the color is not as nice as yours.

    Perhaps the only comment I have is that you may want to consider putting one or two moss balls in there for them to graze on, instead of just lava rocks.

    Very simple setup .I only put some lava rocks a sponge filter and just get the salinity level between 1.008-1.014, cycle for a week and you are ready to release shrimps into the tank .

    Re: My Opae Ula Breeding Tank

    Do these shrimps need cooler waters? Can I keep them in a non-chilled nor fan tank?

    Re: My Opae Ula Breeding Tank

    Great looking, no-frills, straight to the point, setup. Am cycling my tank to house them as well. I read that they are really hardy and thrive well in room temperature. But one question is, I plan to house them in an air conditioned environment, will low temperature (about 23 degrees) be a plus factor or a negate factor? Any one can advice on this?

    By the way, what do you feed this shrimps with, any recommendation so that I am able to stock up the necessity food? Am swaying towards providing the shrimps with a Michelin starred diet.

    Very nice red shrimps. I have a similar very tiny shrimps for some years. But they are not red like yours. Thanks for sharing.

    Not sure what kind of water the shop uses. But when you going to prepare brackish water, you need to mix marine salt with RO/distilled water to get a salinity of 1.008 - 1.014. As for how to measure salinity, you need to use either hydrometer or refractometer.
