How To Build An EASY Shrimp Tank | Part 1

Today we start part 1 of building a 5 gallon Caridina shrimp tank. I'm so excited to finally have some crystal shrimp to add to our shrimp army. I'm thinking our next shrimp video should be about Sulawesi Shrimp! I just found a new dish store yesterday that has some!

Anyway, this build could be considered "budget" especially if you are able to find used parts or if you collect a few sticks and stones from nature. Otherwise it's a fairly affordable setup if you are buying everything new.

Part one covers the cost of all items needed and we scape the tank. Part 2 will be adding plants and shrimp! Don't forget to subscribe so you don't miss the final part!

Thanks for watching!
