Fish tank shrimp, whether mixed or monoculture, are very beautiful. Because there are many kinds of shrimp, ornamental shrimp is different colors, looks very beautiful. If it is a mixed culture of fish and shrimp, it can create a beautiful landscape by laying sand, putting a few stones and planting a little water grass.
There are many types of shrimp, most of which have the characteristics of eating algae, so raising shrimp in a fish tank can effectively remove the algae in the tank. The explosion of algae in the tank is still a threat to other organisms, on the one hand, it will lead to the reduction of oxygen, on the other hand, it will pollute the water body, with shrimp can eliminate them completely.
Shrimp is a good tool for water quality testing. In many environments with poor water quality, some pollution-resistant fish can be raised, but shrimp cannot be raised alive. It has certain requirements for water quality and temperature, if not properly raised, it is easy to raise it to death. Of course, there are many ways to test water quality, and it is a waste to use shrimp to test it.
When the fish tank is fed with food at ordinary times, some of the food that has not been eaten falls to the bottom of the tank and becomes residual bait. The residual bait has a certain pollution effect on the water quality. With shrimp, the residual bait can be removed, so as to keep the fish tank clean and better maintain the water quality.
