What do you think about this tank!?
that is very cool as always!
You have 2 thumbs up from a crazy 6 year old that was watching this video
Shrimp and fish are lookin good and so are the plants!
It looks really nice!
Wow, looks great. My goal is to get some Cherry Shrimp in the future.
I have the Fluval Chi 5 Gallon with some White Clouds. I'm new to the hobby and just starting out. I am purchasing live plants as I can afford and have a Java Fern, Crypto and lots of Duck weed.
Minnows are underrated they look amazing
Actually it seems like White Cloud Mountain minnows are becoming sort of trendy? An old-school stalwart that's coming back into fashion...
And it seems to be quite deserved. I mean, I'm now considering getting myself a group of them, though I hadn't heard of them before I began researching stocking options for my new aquarium. I don't care if they're fashionable, but I do care a lot about them having a great reputation and being very, very pretty.
Beautiful tank, I’ll admit I’ve overlooked minnows in the past but these guys are stunning. I love the shrimp too.
They are definitely a pretty fish!
This looks awesome.
this is the exact configuration i`m currently doing. they are great
Do either breed for u?
Super informative and useful. spot on advice and information that's definitely real, not just made up theories. I've got a 5g cherry shrimp tank with a sponge filter but no heater and it does get cold in the room. That's going great, but for 2 months no shrimplets yet. I'd like to get the minnows into a 29g and breed those and breed some cherry shrimp with a little beat of heating to help along. I don't know how it's going to go, but it looks like a solid choice for me to move into.
Beautiful tank!
I have a 10 gal with Java moss and adding 6 golden white clouds. I was looking to see if they work together and saw your post. It was just confirmation that's what I needed to do.
My first tank I've had for over a year now, a 10 gallon with 5 white clouds, a snail, and a cherry shrimp, heavily planted with staurogyne repens, anubia, and java fern. I'm super happy with it, the white clouds are awesome fish. I hope to breed them somehow because for some reason I never see fry though they constabtly display spawning behavior.
Gorgeous shrimp.
I have cherry shrimp and yesterday put danio fry in to grow them up. I'll place minnows fry in too if I have success with the eggs. Your tank looks stunning. Nothing nicer than lots of green that makes the red cherries pop
Wow. Footage is amazing. It is crazy how much shrimp you have in just a ten gallon. Imagine when my twenty long is up and running with shrimp haha.
Found your channel today and subscribed today 👍
Cool looking tank you gave me a idea
Beautiful tank I’m getting cherry shrimp in 2 weeks just waiting for the weather to warm up. And been thinking about the white clouds to.
I have just set up a small tank specifically for cherry shrimp and decided the other day that white cloud mountain minnows are probably the best tank partner for them, as well as a few snails - so this was really cool to see! Yours seem to absolutely thrive! I love the landscape you have created for them as well!
Hello from 3 years in the future. Did this succeed? I’m thinking of doing the exact same thing!
The minnows were way too active for the shrimp in the size of tank I had, so I had to return the minnows to the aquatics shop. I’m sure with a bigger tank though, it might work - but I feel the shrimp would prefer calmer fish. I hope this helps!
@@juskho89 Very helpful. Thank you! (I am going to attempt WCM minnow, cherry shrimp, and snails in a 10 gallon/37L)
Hey now! I have a tank with white clouds, and neocaridina shrimp. It’s a 10 gallon that’s heavily planted. I keep jungle Val as my background plant of choice. I also have 4 Amano’s and 2 nerites in the tank
This video made me buy white clouds and now I want cherry shrimp lol. Gonna get some and hope the minnows don't hunt them down.
I definitely plan on starting a white cloud tank soon currently going threw all kinds of changes
three years later still havent kept white clouds but am still highly considering it. Came back to this video to weight my thoughts again thanks for the information.
Nice
Great video! 👍🏻You have such a beautiful tank! I love the shrimp's deep red color. The black substrate really makes them pop🙂
*My tank:
Fluval 12 gallon Edge
About 400 Emerald Shrimp
ADA Aqua Soil Amazonia Powder Type
*Plants:
Different Anubias plants
Madagascar lace
Amazon sword
Aponogeton Ulvaceus
Cryptocoryne wendtii 'Green'
Frogbit
Giant duckweed
Duckweed minor
Java moss, and Nymphoides hydrophylla
*Maintenance:
Water change about 30% every 1-2 weeks
To be honest, I rarely check the parameters
Use Easy Green
Sometimes Seachem flourish
Seachem Equilibrium
Seachem iron
Kent liquid calcium
Since I have fancy goldfish, I mainly give my shrimp goldfish food like Repashy Super Gold with added calcium carbonate powder and spirulina.
I've had White clouds before, but I'm in the process of getting long finned ones from a CZcamsr named "WhiteCloud Dynasty". He's an awesome guy with a passion for white clouds. I'm so excited because for the longest I couldn't find anyone who were selling them 😁👍🏻
I do bacter every three days and I have lots of film for my shrimp and snail babies. 50gal 2 sponge filters a few plants mostly moss and duckweed for upside down shrimps and pond snails feeding
Nice 👍
MACRO lens is getting you some great footage!!
I’ve got a 10 gal with 15 white clouds. They will be moving to my 60 gal when it gets cycled. Right now I’m thinking it’s going to be a Danio Tank with my clouds and 10 giant danios and maybe some other danios. Have been thinking about adding some cherry shrimp or some Pygmy Corydoras maybe both.
This is kind of the tank I'm setting up, except I'll be using river rock, java fern, and java moss
@Bay Area Aquatics what do you use for a macro lens?
I have a 29 planted with cherry shrimp and least killifish. The colonies have waxed and waned in the 3 years I've had it.
Minnows like cooler temps, what’s a good temp for minnows, plants and corys?
Hey,I’m Michael,love your tank set up.Ever hear of Green Aqua?They are out of Budhepest,and sell there products at Aquarium Design Group in Tx.I’m setting up a $0 Gal Stock Tub,and want to do White Cloud,but every place is out of them,.
Are there any shrimp that will survive in an outdoor pond that freezes over?
Dope
I have a 10 gallon that is decorated with driftwood, volcanic rock. and a castle ornament. I have 8 baby rednose minnows that are barely 1 inch long. I only have red and white gravel and recently planted this plant that grows in gravel. I want to ass cherry shrimp but I'm feeling that I shouldnt. Thoughts? I was hoping to have a stable shrimp colony that reproduces while being eaten by the minnows once the minnows grow bigger.
I have 9 WCMM in my 10 gallon but they’re constantly chasing. Why would they be doing that?
Great vid.. thnx. I got 6 white clouds, 8 cherrys in fluval edge 12. Fluval stratum substrate... shrimp were pregnant with eggs... now they arent pregnant anymore but. i dont see baby shrimp
I keep Golden White Clouds but every time I have released shrimp into the 29 gallon tank with the fish they dissappear. I'm assuming that they are being eaten.
Love the videos. Can you please tell me which lights you are using for the tank. I’m looking for a light for my 10 gal too but beamswork has different types of lights. Looking for a decent light for plants
This is the light that I have on the 10 gallon, but it grows hair algae a lot. amzn.to/36Nhpmu
This is the Beamswork light I like and have on a few other tanks. amzn.to/2M3DULJ
At what temp. do you keep this tank at?
@Bay Area Aquatics Will the white clouds still breed in the shrimp tank? Or will the shrimp eat the eggs?
Ive started a tank with some cherry shrimps and 2 white cloud. One of my shrimp is pregnant , and i was wondering if the fish will eat the baby /eggs eventually ?
How many do you think I can have in my40g it’s empty
,beautiful. can i keep them with white cloud mountain minnows?
That wenditii is SWEET. Is that the green variety?
So the minnows eat the shrimp or just the eggs and fry?
Do you have a vedio onnplant lights
Do minnows breed in that tank?
Awesome video! I've seen conflicting info online regarding compatibility between WCMMs and cherry shrimp. This video definitely put me at ease!
I have a 10gal tank with five white clouds. I want to up the count. To maybe 8 WCs total, but I also want to add cherry shrimp. Based on 8 total WCs, how many cherry shrimp would you recommend to start?
Also, what temperature do you keep your tank at? I keep mine around 68-70 and it seems the cherry shrimp can tolerate that, as well.
I've got lava rock in my tank and have begun adding Marimo balls. Would java moss/anubias work as well?
Thanks again for the super informative vid!
I would let the Shrimp get established first if you can! If not, I would start with 10-20.
Will the white cloud minnows be okay in a low light environment? Do they care?
Water temperature?
What plant is mentioned at 3:50 beginning with ‘b’ that is going to be pulled out?
Buce Sp. Wavy Leaf
Do white cloud minnows need a heater?
How may minnows are in there?
What’s your camera/lens setup?
Which grit black diamond blasting sand do you use?
For the talking head, its a Canon M3 with a Sigma 18-35 1.8 at 35mm. For close up and broll, its either my Sony A6500, Canon M3, or Canon 6D with a 100mm 2.8 macro or wide shots usually my 17-40 f4.
For sand grit, the most coarse one they offer, i forget which numbers
So, minnows won't harass the shrimp? I heard somewhere that they won't work with the cherry shrimp. It looks as though your tank is thriving, and your doing great. So, it's okay to have them together? I'm planning not on doing ANY breeding. Also, what temperature is your tank at average? Thanks for the video!
I wanted to do a similar setup but I was worried that the shrimp would eat all the white cloud eggs. Has that been a problem for you at all?
I haven't had any fry from this tank, but I have my pond of them I breed so that hasn't been a concern for me. I don't feed any sort of fry food either.
What do you do with the duckweed after you scoop it?
Compost or throw in garden is what I do
How do you know if any shrimp die and start to decay ? Like in the rocks or some where hidden and is feeding difficult ?
They do occasionally, especially from age. The rest of the shrimp take care of them. It doesn't throw the parameters off.
Feeding is very easy. I drop in algae wafers/shrimp food daily.
Bay Area Aquatics awesome thanks !
I have a 5.5 gallon tank with 6 white cloud minnows and am thinking of adding cherry shrimp. I have artificial plants in tank and is unheated Also lowest temperature I have seen in tank is about 57 Fahrenheit but its normally about 64 Fahrenheit. Would this be fine for cherry shrimp to survive
What were the result?
@@pupuchu8503 I got them and they have been fine. Lost one after a few months but it was full size so was probably older. Rest have been fine.
Your whiteclouds are much prettier than mine! I am jealous!! Your shrimp are a really pretty color!! Where did you get your whiteclouds?
A local club member!
Do they sell their fish?
my shrimp go crazy over bacter ae
Have you noticed your minnows eating your shrimp? I've been looking for a community fish that won't go hunting for my red cherry shrimp
Why do you like beamworx lights
I think for the price, they grow plants very well.
@@DilettanteCulture they absolutely do especially the high powered da model, mine is about 40 watts, I run it in sequence with a 24 watt finnix 24/7 planted plus on my high tech 30 gallon plated tank and my plants couldn’t be pearling and growing better.... lighting is a very controversial topic but most of the information out there is based on false theories and miss guided new hobbyists I’ve grown plants with flood lights even!! As long as it’s in balance kelvin and intensity is nothing it’s all about balence of nutrients, lighting , and Of course a good pressurized CO2 system so plants can breathe under water better. Turn one element up you have to turn the other two up you cannot just put highlight on a tank that you do nothing else with and expect awesome plant growth/health rarely u may get semi lucky but mostly u will end up failing ... there are many videos tho on this so I’m shure I’m wasting my time explaining all this lmao 😂 beautiful tank by the way also this was aimed towards anyone who cares to read it no1 in particular... happy fishkeeping 👍
Where can i find a reputable bay area cherry shrimp dealer? So hard to find a consistent affordable supplier these days.
Your tank looks cherry by the way😅
Imagine your ludwigia isn't getting covered in hair algae smh
can you eat cherry shrimp?
