Do you believe there is a magic bullet in shrimp keeping?

Apparently after much observation I haven’t found someone or any brand for that matter to have good products and competition grade shrimps. The reason is simple, line breeding requires precision and discipline in maintaining water quality and adding anything will alter the water parameters. This include black water extract, “fly solution”, amino acid, vitamins, anti chlorine (your water should be tds 0), bacteria powder, increase breeding enhancer, anything other than reminerizer.

For example, there are many breeders who proclaim their magic powder/solution but have you realised that they generally do not have very nice show or comp grade shrimps? They are good in selling products that they claim will help shrimp breed better etc but why ain’t their shrimp any better than top renowned breeders?

It is an unspoken rule in the Taiwan shrimp industry that such truth are only shared within the inner circle. If someone proclaim that their magic solution or powder is superior and is required every water change or during setup, then just ask yourself what if I don’t use them?

Frankly nothing happens if you don’t use them but I can guarantee that using those magic potion will not make keeping or breeding easier especially comp grade shrimps.

Only the best
