No, some say a 20L tank is enough, but honestly, for beginners, 40-60L is perfect and way more forgiving.
I started with a colony of 20-50, and within 3-6 months, I had hundreds that I needed another tank for the excess within a year.
But what matters more is stability, not size. A well-cycled, balanced tank is better than a big one done wrong, especially if you are on a tighter budget or have limited space.
You’ll need to cycle your tank first, which takes around 4–6 weeks. I know it’s tempting to rush, but stability is what keeps shrimp alive, not shortcuts.
Everything I teach is for Neocaridina shrimp, but the principle is the same for all aquatic creatures. They’re the most beginner-friendly species and come in a range of colours like red, blue, orange, and yellow.
That’s more common than you think, and it’s not the end. If you weren’t taught the right basics, it’s no surprise things didn’t work. This time, you’ll have a clear process to follow.
Yes – once it’s set up properly. Shrimp don’t need constant attention, but they do need a stable environment. Start slow, follow the right steps, and it becomes a calming, steady rhythm.
