Aquarium for dwarf shrimps - tips and recommendations
A well-designed aquarium for dwarf shrimp is crucial to creating a healthy and appealing environment. The ideal size of an aquarium for dwarf shrimps starts at around 20 liters, although larger tanks are always an advantage to ensure stable water values.
When equipping the aquarium, you should ensure good filtration to keep the water clean and clear. Dwarf shrimps are used to a certain amount of current as they often live in small streams, so a moderate current in the aquarium is definitely welcome.
The set-up of the aquarium plays a major role in the well-being of the dwarf shrimps. Hiding places such as small caves, roots and densely planted areas offer the shrimps protection and retreats, especially during the moulting phase. Plants such as moss, Java moss and fine-leaved species are ideal, as they also serve as a food source for the shrimps.
Dwarf shrimps and their roommates

Hiding places are particularly important when dwarf shrimps live together with fish. Make sure that there are enough hiding places so that the shrimps feel safe and are protected during the moulting phase.
