Acclimating and Introducing Shrimps Into An Established Former Betta Aquarium - The Indoor Wetlands

Acclimating and Introducing Shrimps Into An Established Former Betta Aquarium - The Indoor Wetlands After my betta Arriba passed away, I've decided not to tear down his tank. His former tank has been very lonely without him and with just red ramshorn snails living in it, there hasn't been much activity to see.

I have been trying to find a fine koi betta to replace Arriba. but since lockdown, I couldn't find any seller online near my area. Because of this, I decided to postpone getting a new betta altogether and acquire shrimps instead. :) Finally this weekend, I was able to find shrimp breeder that sells blue aura and fire reds, and I think buying them was a good decision.

When adding new shrimp into your established already existing tank it is important to take the proper steps in introducing and acclimating them into their new home. The whole process is extremely stressful to the shrimp. Acclimation is important for shrimp as it allows them time to adjust to the temperature and parameters of their new environment. By doing this correctly you will reduce the chances of shock or death of your new shrimps. We will begin by going over the basic steps of the process.

Drip acclimation can help reduce shock, as shock will affect shrimps and can lead to a shorter life expectancy, can cause death, causes stress, and chances of not eating. So acclimate shrimps by the drip method is essential to giving your shrimps a chance to survive in their new environment.
