tandemcartshrimp Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 so as the title indicates, what are the right parameters for the water to keep fresh water shrimp. I should be getting some in the next week or so and im just wondering what "kind" of water they require apart from fresh water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueether Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 The main thing is to keep the water cool not any warmer than 24/25 deg C. The cooler the better, they will adjust easier and they will survive longer. I have seen then in water from a pH of about mid 6 (at a guess - was lowland swamp with lots of decaying plant matter) to hardish water with a pH of 7.4. They like quite well oxygenated water I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
