⚫️ Black Crystal Shrimp
(Caridina cantonensis – Crystal Black Shrimp / CBS)
🌟 Description
Crystal Black Shrimp CBS are selectively bred variants of the Bee Shrimp, known for their vivid red-and-white banded patterns. They’re small (around 2.5–3 cm), peaceful, and highly prized in the aquascaping world.
Key Traits
– Color: Black and white patterns, graded from low (C) to high (SSS) quality
– Size: 2.5–3 cm
– Lifespan: 1.5–2 years
– Temperament: Peaceful, shy, active grazers
– Difficulty: Moderate to high (sensitive to water parameters)
—
🧪 Ideal Water Parameters
Black Crystal Shrimp are Caridina, which means they prefer soft, acidic water.
| Parameter | Ideal Range |
|———-|————-|
| Temperature | 20–24°C |
| pH | 5.8–6.8 |
| GH | 4–6 |
| KH | 0–2 |
| TDS | 100–160 ppm |
Important: Dubai tap water is usually hard and alkaline, so most keepers use RO (reverse osmosis) water remineralized with a Caridina-specific mineral mix.
—
🏡 Tank Setup Tips
Tank Size
– Minimum 20 liters, but 30–40 liters is more stable for sensitive shrimp.
Substrate
– Use active soil (e.g., ADA Amazonia, Brightwell, SL-Aqua) to buffer pH downward.
Filtration
– Sponge filter or gentle canister filter
– Avoid strong flow
– Ensure excellent biological filtration
Plants & Hardscape
– Mosses (Java, Christmas, Flame)
– Fine-leaf plants
– Cholla wood, almond leaves, and biofilm-friendly surfaces
Lighting
– Moderate; shrimp don’t need strong light, but plants do.
—
🍽 Feeding
⚫️ Black Crystal Shrimp graze constantly on biofilm, but you can supplement with:
– Shrimp-specific pellets
– Blanched vegetables (zucchini, spinach)
– Snowflake food
– Bacter powders for biofilm growth
Feed lightly—overfeeding is the #1 cause of shrimp deaths.
—
🧼 Maintenance & Care Tips
Stability is everything
Caridina shrimp die more from parameter swings than from imperfect parameters.
Weekly Routine
– 10–15% water change with remineralized RO water
– Clean filter sponges gently in tank water
– Remove uneaten food after 2–3 hours
Avoid
– Copper-based medications
– Sudden temperature changes
– Overcleaning the tank
– Mixing with aggressive fish
—
🐣 Breeding
Black Crystal Shrimp breed readily when conditions are stable.
Requirements
– Mature tank (2–3 months minimum)
– Stable soft water
– Plenty of hiding spots
Females carry eggs for 28–35 days, and babies are tiny but fully formed.
—
💡 Pro Tips for Success
– Start with 10–20 shrimp to build a stable colony.
– Use drip acclimation when introducing them.
– Add leaf litter to boost biofilm and tannins.
– Keep them in a species-only tank for best survival rates.
– Test water weekly—especially TDS and pH.

| KH | 1–6 |Soft, slightly acidic water gives the best coloration and compactness.
Nutrients
– Needs consistent macro and micro fertilization.
– Iron helps intensify orange/red tones.
– Clean water and stable parameters prevent melting.—
✂️ Trimming & Shaping
This is where Rotala bonsai becomes truly “bonsai.”– Trim frequently to encourage side shoots and bushy growth.
– Top‑cutting works best: cut 3–5 cm above the substrate.

Java fern on Driftwood
🌿 Java Fern on Driftwood
A clear, practical guide tailored for aquascapers who care about both plant health and aesthetics.—
🌱 Description
Java Fern (Microsorum pteropus) is a hardy, slow‑growing aquatic plant native to Southeast Asia. It’s a classic choice for driftwood‑based aquascapes because:– It naturally grows epiphytically—attaching to wood, rocks, and hardscape rather than rooting in substrate.
– Its leaves are tough, textured, and visually striking, giving a mature, natural look.
– It tolerates a wide range of water conditions, making it ideal for beginners and advanced scapers.Common Varieties
| Variety | Features |
|——–|———-|
| Regular Java Fern | Broad green leaves, classic look |
| Narrow Leaf | Slim, elegant leaves; great for mid‑ground |
| Windelov (Lace) | Frilly leaf tips; decorative |
| Trident | Multi‑split leaves; premium aesthetic |
| Mini | Compact growth; perfect for nano driftwood |—
🪵 Why It Works Perfectly on Driftwood
Java Fern attaches using rhizomes, not roots. The rhizome grips the wood over time, creating a natural, aged look. Driftwood also provides:– A stable anchor
– Shaded micro‑areas Java Fern loves
– A dark contrast that makes the leaves pop—
🧩 How to Attach Java Fern to Driftwood
1. Prepare the Plant
– Rinse gently.
– Trim any black or mushy leaves.
– Keep the rhizome exposed—never bury it.2. Attach Securely
Use one of these methods:
– Cotton thread (will dissolve naturally)
– Fishing line (invisible and long‑lasting)
– Super glue gel (safe when used sparingly on the rhizome underside)Attach lightly—don’t crush the rhizome.
3. Placement Tips
– Position in low to moderate light areas.
– Avoid placing directly under strong light to prevent algae on leaves.
– Allow water flow around the plant to keep it healthy.—

🌿 Aquascapeplants Rotala Bonsai
(Rotala indica ‘Bonsai’ / Ammannia sp. ‘Bonsai’)Overview
Rotala bonsai is a compact, slow‑growing stem plant prized for its tiny round leaves, dense structure, and miniature tree‑like appearance. It’s ideal for nano tanks, detailed foreground layouts, and high-end aquascapes where precision and texture matter. When grown well, it forms tight bushes with vibrant green to orange hues.—
🌱 Key Features
– Leaf shape: Small, rounded, thick leaves
– Growth habit: Upright stems that stay compact
– Color: Bright green under low light; orange to reddish under strong light
– Placement: Foreground to midground
– Growth speed: Slow to moderate
– Difficulty: Medium (requires stable conditions)—
💧 Care Requirements
Light
– Medium to high light is ideal.
– High light brings out orange/red tones and tighter internodes.
– Low light = greener, looser growth.CO₂
– Strongly recommended.
– With CO₂, it becomes denser, more colorful, and easier to shape.
– Without CO₂, growth is slow and may become leggy.Water Parameters
| Parameter | Ideal Range |
|———-|————-|
| Temperature | 22–28°C |
| pH | 6.0–7.2 |
| GH | 4–10 |
| KH | 1–6 |Soft, slightly acidic water gives the best coloration and compactness.
Nutrients
– Needs consistent macro and micro fertilization.
– Iron helps intensify orange/red tones.
– Clean water and stable parameters prevent melting.—
✂️ Trimming & Shaping
This is where Rotala bonsai becomes truly “bonsai.”– Trim frequently to encourage side shoots and bushy growth.
– Top‑cutting works best: cut 3–5 cm above the substrate.
– Replanting tops is optional; the base will sprout new shoots.
– For a “mini tree” effect, trim the sides and let the top dome naturally.—
🌿 Placement in Aquascapes
– Foreground bushes in Iwagumi layouts
– Midground clusters behind stones
– Nano tanks where scale matters

Java fern on Driftwood
🌿 Java Fern on Driftwood
A clear, practical guide tailored for aquascapers who care about both plant health and aesthetics.—
🌱 Description
Java Fern (Microsorum pteropus) is a hardy, slow‑growing aquatic plant native to Southeast Asia. It’s a classic choice for driftwood‑based aquascapes because:– It naturally grows epiphytically—attaching to wood, rocks, and hardscape rather than rooting in substrate.
– Its leaves are tough, textured, and visually striking, giving a mature, natural look.
– It tolerates a wide range of water conditions, making it ideal for beginners and advanced scapers.Common Varieties
| Variety | Features |
|——–|———-|
| Regular Java Fern | Broad green leaves, classic look |
| Narrow Leaf | Slim, elegant leaves; great for mid‑ground |
| Windelov (Lace) | Frilly leaf tips; decorative |
| Trident | Multi‑split leaves; premium aesthetic |
| Mini | Compact growth; perfect for nano driftwood |—
🪵 Why It Works Perfectly on Driftwood
Java Fern attaches using rhizomes, not roots. The rhizome grips the wood over time, creating a natural, aged look. Driftwood also provides:– A stable anchor
– Shaded micro‑areas Java Fern loves
– A dark contrast that makes the leaves pop—
🧩 How to Attach Java Fern to Driftwood
1. Prepare the Plant
– Rinse gently.
– Trim any black or mushy leaves.
– Keep the rhizome exposed—never bury it.2. Attach Securely
Use one of these methods:
– Cotton thread (will dissolve naturally)
– Fishing line (invisible and long‑lasting)
– Super glue gel (safe when used sparingly on the rhizome underside)Attach lightly—don’t crush the rhizome.
3. Placement Tips
– Position in low to moderate light areas.
– Avoid placing directly under strong light to prevent algae on leaves.
– Allow water flow around the plant to keep it healthy.—

🟥 Red Crystal Shrimp
(Caridina cantonensis – Crystal Red Shrimp / CRS)
🌟 Description
Red Crystal Shrimp are selectively bred variants of the Bee Shrimp, known for their vivid red-and-white banded patterns. They’re small (around 2.5–3 cm), peaceful, and highly prized in the aquascaping world.
Key Traits
– Color: Red and white patterns, graded from low (C) to high (SSS) quality
– Size: 2.5–3 cm
– Lifespan: 1.5–2 years
– Temperament: Peaceful, shy, active grazers
– Difficulty: Moderate to high (sensitive to water parameters)
—
🧪 Ideal Water Parameters
Red Crystal Shrimp are Caridina, which means they prefer soft, acidic water.
| Parameter | Ideal Range |
|———-|————-|
| Temperature | 20–24°C |
| pH | 5.8–6.8 |
| GH | 4–6 |
| KH | 0–2 |
| TDS | 100–160 ppm |
Important: Dubai tap water is usually hard and alkaline, so most keepers use RO (reverse osmosis) water remineralized with a Caridina-specific mineral mix.
—
🏡 Tank Setup Tips
Tank Size
– Minimum 20 liters, but 30–40 liters is more stable for sensitive shrimp.
Substrate
– Use active soil (e.g., ADA Amazonia, Brightwell, SL-Aqua) to buffer pH downward.
Filtration
– Sponge filter or gentle canister filter
– Avoid strong flow
– Ensure excellent biological filtration
Plants & Hardscape
– Mosses (Java, Christmas, Flame)
– Fine-leaf plants
– Cholla wood, almond leaves, and biofilm-friendly surfaces
Lighting
– Moderate; shrimp don’t need strong light, but plants do.
—
🍽 Feeding
Red Crystal Shrimp graze constantly on biofilm, but you can supplement with:
– Shrimp-specific pellets
– Blanched vegetables (zucchini, spinach)
– Snowflake food
– Bacter powders for biofilm growth
Feed lightly—overfeeding is the #1 cause of shrimp deaths.
—
🧼 Maintenance & Care Tips
Stability is everything
Caridina shrimp die more from parameter swings than from imperfect parameters.
Weekly Routine
– 10–15% water change with remineralized RO water
– Clean filter sponges gently in tank water
– Remove uneaten food after 2–3 hours
Avoid
– Copper-based medications
– Sudden temperature changes
– Overcleaning the tank
– Mixing with aggressive fish
—
🐣 Breeding
Red Crystal Shrimp breed readily when conditions are stable.
Requirements
– Mature tank (2–3 months minimum)
– Stable soft water
– Plenty of hiding spots
Females carry eggs for 28–35 days, and babies are tiny but fully formed.
—
💡 Pro Tips for Success
– Start with 10–20 shrimp to build a stable colony.
– Use drip acclimation when introducing them.
– Add leaf litter to boost biofilm and tannins.
