In fact, I started preparing to open the crystal shrimp tank in March, and I didn't finish it until a while ago. It took three months, a long time, but for beginners, it's good to slow down. In the past, I lost a lot because I was eager for success. In retrospect, it was really a failure. .
Let's start with the above picture and let everyone know the detailed steps.
The first is the equipment. In fact, I feel that the taboo of raising fish and shrimp is secondary consumption. Good equipment will make beginners get twice the result with half the effort, and at the same time, their wallets will be flat. Hehe, it cost a lot of money.
The filter barrel Han Yi 250 (unpowered) has a cotton front, a Han Yi 600 global power barrel has two, a Han Yi heating rod has 1, a Han Yi air pump and three groups of water goblins. I gave up the Arnold front. .
The cylinder body is 60*45*45 ultra-white, and the lamp is Odyssey T5HO4 lamp tube with Haiwannian 865 lamp tube, all of which are in previous stock, saving a lot.
All photos, ready to start work.
ADA 1 generation 2 packs, bought from a brother, a very good brother, haha, no praise by name. . Citibank
Shrimp food from my brother.
I really don't know what this is. Anyway, it was put before shrimp to cultivate microorganisms and nitrifying bacteria. confused
Algae explosion or explosion? I forgot, hehe, anyway, I need to add it regularly in the early stage.
Looks like photosynthetic bacteria
This shrimp food, known as wheat straw fungus, can also provide some microorganisms.
The initial screening mud should be divided into different sizes, which is convenient for shrimp to turn over the soil in the future and cultivate algae to the bed at the same time.
I dried a bag, ate a lot at noon, and it was nothing.
Small particles from the sun eventually spread on it.
Put down the big one first.
The overall effect of the shop is quite thick, and people are almost ha ha.
Tidy it up. Actually, it's almost enough. They'll smooth it out after the shrimp.
Add water, I always add water to pure water. I really had no confidence in the water quality control in Hohhot, so I served it with bottled water. Bucket by bucket makes my heart bleed. .
Half a can, no water,,, Call for water. . .
When it is full, turn on the light to see the effect, and the cylinder runs away. But at this time, only one bucket of cotton will run, and the others will not pick up first. Let the mud clean, turn on the air pump for aeration and turn on the light for 4 hours.
This is another photo.
This is a later sketch, which was sent by another brother. Haha, don't praise by name. Pepper grass absorbs NO3.
This is the effect after 3 days. The bubbles disappeared and were very transparent. I measured PH 5.8, and the acid reduction is really good. .
On day 10, change the water in the whole tank, add water essence, replace the filter cotton in the barrel, fill it with water, and start the water extraction process.
All kinds of strings. . . There is no sound at all, and I still can't sleep.
Plant the grass, too, and turn on the light. Oh, my God, this one is on. . .
Have another drink. .
Guest, the black shell gentleman in the small jar, it has a history. He once lived in a chinemys reevesii pond, so it is also black and has a protective effect. .
This one looks at the thickness of the mud. That cigarette is really hard to smoke.
Pepper grass is also growing healthily.
This is what it looks like after five days of big water change. Now the value is pH 6.2 GH1KH1NO3 0 ~ 5. TDS 40。 You can throw some phoenix tails or something and break into the tank.
1: Nitrifying bacteria can be established in fish feces. 2: You can eat bugs that may be brought in the mud. 3: Anyway, you are idle to put two good-looking ones, haha.
I opened the water tank and didn't put Cody's nitrifying bacteria in it. My brother said natural cultivation. Anyway, you raised water for three months. Cody wasted it. . .
On the 25th day of opening the tank, the NO _ 3 burst was ushered in, which was an inevitable thing when a complete nitrification system was established. A large number of dead shrimps also started from this. I once raised water for 7 days, and the crystal shrimp suffered an outbreak of NO3. As a result, crystal shrimp got lost and died in the west, which is also a big taboo for raising crystals. Don't worry, if you are in a hurry, Crystal Shrimp will die for you. .
Try the same red color with another test solution. . They say it's good to see red, so why am I so annoyed? At this time, a large number of algae have begun to appear in the tank, brown algae are the most, and green algae are few, which is also a manifestation of NO3 outbreak. If there were more brown algae, NO3 would be higher. Increase light. It's a day 12 hour. At the same time, a problem came. The staghorn algae has come out. Trouble, this thing is still haunting him. Dare not prescribe medicine, only manually. .
After opening the can for 35 days, there were a lot of green algae, and the front wall of the can was cleaned once. On the 25th day, when the algae NO3 was high, phoenix tail was invited out.
After opening the cylinder, change the water by a quarter every three days. After changing the water, add a small amount of nitrifying bacteria to help establish the system. I used Hogan's. I don't talk to him about ordinary people.
40 days: green, just like in the river. Now photosynthetic bacteria are added once every three days.
The outbreak of green algae shows that the water quality has improved.
Fifty days. At present, the data in the cylinder is pH 6.2 Gh2kh 1NO3 20TDS 70, and NO3 just can't get down. Continue to change the water, and it will become a quarter in one day, and it will be ready in one week. .
Green algae thrive in the light. I am opening a green algae box. Now it's only 12 hours to prepare the shrimp. A large number of algae burst ahead of time, and the shrimp had food to eat.
The ancient sea mud also went down. Actually, I really don't know what this thing is for If it helps, I'll go down. . This jar is green. NO _ 3 began to decline, hovering between 10. Keep monitoring.
The value is 10, and I really can't see the color in those days. .
Look at it from another angle. It's five o'clock. ,,,
There are still five people, and they are being confirmed. . .
It's been 70 days, and the water is almost stable. It's time for shrimp. In fact, I am proficient in this for a long time, and I can fish in 1 month. I'm not sure. Get something certain. Shrimp is too expensive to drink after death.
PH:6.4？ 6.6? I do not see any at all. It's already spent.
No.3 is yellow, No.3 is yellow and No.3 is high. Please change the water.
Too yellow. . . .
Shrimp explosion diagram, system shrimp, in fact, I don't know what system shrimp is, just thick white spots, that is brought by eggs, try water, it's okay. I haven't played. It takes two hours to swim. Go slowly.
By the way, it is necessary to increase the amount of microbial bacteria and speed up the cultivation of microorganisms before releasing shrimp 10 day. It's normal that the newly arrived crystal shrimp doesn't eat much in the water. There should be a process of water quality adaptation, and don't put a lot of feed to avoid poor water quality. There are so many green algae in the jar that you can eat it for a while. Now the light is still 12 hour.
There are a lot of green algae, and I am very happy to eat, but it really affects the appearance. If you don't like green algae, you can reduce the light to 4 hours after the fifth day of shrimp, and 1 week will be gone. . . .
I don't like the feed put in, and the green algae is very happy. At this stage, I change a quarter of the water in five days and add water slowly. After adding water, all kinds of bacteria, algae and vegetables are added. I can also add some. .
The shrimps I sent varied in size, because he fished them directly from my brother. It is recommended to send shrimps of 0.8 to 1 cm, because the life span of shrimps is relatively short, 2 years high, and adults are generally around 1 year. Unless you use it as a breeding seed, it is really unnecessary at other times. Shrimp is easy to adapt to, and remember to buy all male shrimp at a low price. That is to say, if you play shrimp but don't breed, what are you playing? Where is the fun of breeding?
The basic population of crystal shrimp should be 30, at least. Without them, they don't like breeding very much. A 60-cylinder can hold up to 300 shrimps, but 300 shrimps in 60 cylinders are a bit dangerous, remember.
Take a picture in the sky at 80, and now the light begins to fade and the green algae has faded. . .
No, no, it's done. The food is put in normally. The illumination is changed to 6 hours, and the number of water changes is controlled. In addition, the temperature is high in summer, so it is necessary to control the temperature at 25~26, so as to be comfortable. If not, the fan will serve. I keep the window open 24 hours a day, and the shrimp is cool when it is cool. .
The green algae are a little less refreshing, but the antlers are beginning to show off in an ostentatious manner. .
They actually like to eat wheat straw fungus, although there is no nutrition (online). . .
Shrimp begins to molt normally. Starting to molt proves that the shrimp has adapted to your water quality and started to grow. What you have to do now is to maintain good water quality.
At present, the water quality pH is 6.5 gh2kh 1NO3 0 ~ 5, and there is no absolute 0. TDS70, TDS electrolyte, I really can't adjust it. Maybe it's the pure water, but it doesn't matter much anyway.
Diners, dinner is ready.
Take a recent photo, the red place is a little exposed, still adapting to the water. It is transparent when it first enters the water. Bleached crystal shrimp has a chance to recover, and opportunity is opportunity.
It's refreshing. .
The female shrimps with eggs have been laid. Visually inspect about 15 shrimps to see the survival rate. Before the shrimps come out of the tank, make sure that there are enough microbial populations in the tank, and add bacteria, vitamins, etc.
You can't take pictures of shaking hands,
Shrimp, it seems to be three segments.
Meritorious mother. . Fat.
There are many eggs below. . . . No meatballs
It takes about 90 days to open the cylinder, which takes a long time and is relatively suitable for novices. Actually, crystal shrimp is not that difficult. Playing with fish and shrimp is playing with water. If you know water, they will be comfortable.
To sum up.
1: If you don't have enough confidence in your self-cultivation, you can buy some brands of equipment, which will get twice the result with half the effort, and also reduce the chances of your second consumption and the times of your wife's anger. . .
2. You can read online posts, but don't trust them too much, including mine. In practice, the water quality and environment in different places are different, so we should find a way that suits us.
3. play with fish and shrimp, remember, don't worry, don't itch when you look at the empty jar. Before the water rises, you will get shrimp. It's exciting to die, one by one. The 25-day NO _ 3 outbreak period is the key to get through each period smoothly.
4. If the opening time is short, about 20 days, don't fish a lot when fishing shrimp. Try the water for 20 days first to prevent too many shrimps from causing the nitrification system to collapse and the supply of flora to be insufficient. Only 20 shrimps are stable. I raised it in large quantities for 70 days and dried it properly for 50 days.
5. The value is not absolute. Don't blindly seek extremes, and then you can only make it inevitable. For example, a cylinder of NO3 0~30 and a cylinder of NO3 5~ 10/0, which cylinder is stable, of course, is the latter. Shrimp is sensitive and needs a relatively stable environment. Change the water slowly and control the temperature. Too much excitement can only make your purse lose money.
6. During the cylinder opening, worms and leeches. Snails of all kinds are a problem for many people. How did these things come from? The grass you planted, the mud you used, and the heavy wood you put can carry eggs, and most of them are in the grass, so isolate them before entering the tank, let them soak in the basin for a few days, and deal with them well to prevent bugs from erupting in the tank in the future. It's spectacular. . . Let's wait for the roll.
7. After all, crystal shrimp is not a cheap thing, but also a life. Please be kind. When there is a shrimp tank at home, avoid pesticides, pesticides, dichlorvos and various volatile drugs. Once, a buddy was just a bottle of 10 pesticide, killing a cylinder of brocade shrimp and losing a cylinder of BYD F0. . . So if you use the above things, wash your hands more to prevent gas from floating on the water. For your sake, please stay away from your favorite shrimp and property. .
Finally, playing fish and shrimp requires tuition, and I have taught a lot of tuition. So I summed up the above, there should be more, but I can't remember the details, so I should spend it. Since you like it, you should be hard on yourself and grow up in your study.
