Size of CRS breeding tank

[cheetf]

Could someone please tell me what is minimum the tank size that you can successfully breed CRS?

Hi,
I bred them successfully for a couple of years in a 12l tank. But I recommend to use a larger tank of at least 20l or 25l. The more water, the more stable are the conditions.

Thanks. Any other recommedations for other parameters to look out for?

Hi,
all you need are a cycled tank with stable conditions, a good filtration, enough plants, the right temperature of 20°C till 26°C, no copper or other toxic elements in your tap water, a low nitrate level and a few shrimps of both genders to start breeding. BTW, it would be helpful, if you would inform you in the "Library" and in the different sub-forums of this web site. Later on you can still ask questions.

regards
Robert
