Most rice shrimps are very solid and easy to reproduce. They do not require much water and can adapt to weak acidic or alkaline growth environment. Their water temperature requirements are not very high, generally as long as higher than 5 degrees Celsius, they can grow normally. They are mostly omnivorous shrimp, many food is not picky, can eat a lot of things. So in general, they are relatively easy to raise.
1. Water temperature: Most rice shrimps can adapt to the water temperature of 5-30 ℃ after they grow up. Young shrimps have poor cold resistance, but they can survive in water above 10 C. In the actual breeding time, it is recommended to keep the water temperature between 22-25 degrees Celsius, which can make them grow faster and is also good for their reproduction.
2. Water quality: They do not require high acidity and alkalinity of water. It can survive in weak acid or weak alkali, that is, in water with PH value between 6.0 and 8.0. They do not require much water hardness, as long as the GH value is adjusted to between 5.0 and 7.0. There is no need to change water frequently when breeding, usually every 10 days or so.
3. Feeding: Most of the rice shrimps are omnivorous. When they are raised, they can be fed with artificial shrimp food. For cherry shrimp, extreme fire shrimp and other varieties, you can use cooked spinach to feed, which is very good for their color. The frequency of feeding should not be too high, adult shrimp can be fed every 2-3 days. Young shrimps can be fed more often, which is more conducive to their growth.
