There are many reasons for shrimp running around in a full tank. If it is due to insufficient oxygen, it is necessary to fill the cylinder with oxygen in time. If the water quality is poor, it is necessary to change the water regularly to improve the water condition, usually once a week. If it is because the new shrimp into the tank does not adapt, need to rest for a period of time. If the space in the tank is too small or the breeding density is too large, it is necessary to change the tank for breeding.
Shrimp why full tank scurrying, how to prevent it from running?

One, lack of oxygen

Shrimp full tank scurrying is most likely due to lack of oxygen. Shrimp this animal, although can breathe in the water, but the water dissolved oxygen requirements are relatively high, low dissolved oxygen may be able to feed some fish, but certainly can not raise live shrimp. Therefore, it is necessary to oxygenate the cylinder at ordinary times, and if there is filtration, there is no need for an additional oxygenation pump.

2. the water quality is poor

Shrimp also has certain requirements for water quality. If the water is turbid and makes it feel uncomfortable, it will also run around in a full tank. In view of this phenomenon, the best way is to change water regularly to improve water quality. According to the deterioration of the water body, the cycle of water exchange is decided, usually once a week.

3. new shrimp into the tank

For the new shrimp that has just entered the shrimp tank, because the environment has changed, it is not adapted to it for a period of time, so there is also the possibility of scurrying. This situation need not worry too much, as long as the other shrimp no problem, there will be no danger, rest for a period of time, adapt to the environment is good.

4. the space is too small

If the feeding density is relatively large, or the tank is too small, the shrimp will also run around. Therefore, shrimp must provide a larger container, so that it can move freely, but also prepare some water plants, convenient for it to hide.
