No, unless really necessary, as for sensitive shrimps like crs, there is always risk when disturbing the substrate.
The shrimp poo may look alot but it is nothing if you compare with fishes. The bacteria in the substrate will take care of these poo.

Thats right. I never vacuum them cause afraid the ADA soil will also make the water black or brown (as i am using 2 types of ADA Soil).
Some people also advise me to add the bacteria powder once i do water change (a small portion of the spoon). That helps in getting clear water.

My shrimp is look alway hiding , i believe there are not that happy by water parameter. my NH3 and 4 is " 0 " , i may need measure NO2.
Allright , thats y i think bottom UGF is important. As now mine is without UGF and wrongly soil used.
i will aim to have a UGF and bough new soil to re-setup....

After read through from here , it look benebachi brand is look look more reliable . please correct me if i am wrong. . just wonder what is the necessary for substrate and gravel require ? example : nutrient and bacteria

You can check out lelong. There is a shop that provides the stuffs that you need for a shrimp tank. Look under Package.
http://aquashop.lelong.my/

It does not include the tank, pump, lights, or plants or shrimp. But it does tell you what kind of price to expect for the substrate and how to start.

Sharing this useful DIY for shrimp tanks:-

http://shrimpkeepersforum.com/forum/articl...umentation/diy/

http://shrimpkeepersforum.com/forum/articl...-tank-fans-r30/

I have made my shrimp tank temp low at 24-25C with small fan and wrap around with the aluminium kinda insulator paper (sold at daiso)! So taking care of shrimp not necessary expensive.

QUOTE(Calvin871989 @ Jul 17 2015, 09:19 PM)
may I ask why my shrimps are committing suicide ?

I have an ADA open tank but most of the shrimps I bought like jumping out from the tank when im sleeping or either when im at work just to wake up the next morning or come back home from work knowing that their on the floor dead sad.gif

the only fishes in my tank are cardinal tetras and I do not believe that it has anything to do with the fish.

or could it be that my Co2 is high because im also having a planted tank ? but if that is the case, how come there are no cardinal tetras committing suicide ?

please help and advice.

thank you.

I think its not your water issue..its the fish chasing the shrimps.. shrimp is tasty food for fish. Your fish didnt jump out cause shrimp doesnt chase fish... simple
