Black Galaxy Snowflake 🦐❄️

These gorgeous shrimp are a perfect choice for keepers looking to expand their Caridina collection with a little more wow factor.

Great news, they are now available on our website somersetshrimpshack.uk Catch them whilst they're still available!

Part 2 of the Super Simple Sulawesi Scape 🦐

The tank has now matured for 6–8 weeks, so it's finally time to add the shrimp.

A slow drip acclimation, a mature aquarium, and a little patience go a long way with Sulawesi species.

For this setup I've chosen:
Caridina dennerli "Matano Blue Dot"
Caridina caerulea "Snow Zebra"

Now it's time to let nature do the rest.

Stay tuned for Part 3... 👀

Shout out to .cove who bred these beauties 👌🦐

Just a bit of fun, interested to see how this turns out 😅

We wont be able to keep many shrimp at all in this one but once it has matured we should get away with a small group 🦐

POV: you realise aquariums don’t have to be bright and colourful to be beautiful 👀🌿

Blackwater tanks are seriously underrated.

The tannins, the botanicals, the natural feel. it’s probably the most peaceful tank in the room, honestly one I could watch for hours.

Would you keep a blackwater setup, or is it not your style?

Also, our betta still needs a name!
