Ryanjuds Posted August 29, 2016 Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 I just set up a 20 gallon long tank using Fluval Plant and Shrimp Stratum, which is an active substrate. I planned to keep neocaridina species in the tank because I'm told they are much easier to keep and breed but i have also read many conflicting things on what type of substrate they require. Some places say they don't mind an active or inert substrate and some places say they must have an inert substrate. I'm curious if I will have success breeding a neocaridina shrimp with my current substrate or if I am better off getting a caridina species. Also what makes caridina more difficult to keep and breed?

Soothing Shrimp Posted August 29, 2016 Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 Everyone has different experiences. Here's mine: I found mine breed best in 7+ph. Under 7 and they would live, but not breed as much. Around mid 6's and mine started dying off. I'm a novice at cards, so I'll let someone else answer that.
