Filterless Shrimp Tanks - A Deep Dive On Planted Cherry Shrimp Tank Setups (Walstad Method Friendly) In today’s video, I’ll be diving deep into the world of filterless shrimp tanks, a growing trend in the aquarium hobby. These tanks offer a low-maintenance, eco-friendly setup that can thrive without the need for traditional filtration. I’ll be discussing everything you need to know, from the basics of creating a filterless system to more advanced tips on selecting the right substrate, plants, lighting, and maintaining stable water parameters to keep your shrimp healthy and happy. I'll also share my personal experiences with different setups, including my Walstad shrimp tank, Pearlweed jungle tank, and shrimp jar, all of which run without filters. Each of these setups offers its own unique take on a filterless design, and I’ll explain the pros and cons of various substrate options such as dirt-capped tanks, aquasoil, and inert substrates. You’ll also learn how to harness natural light and simple aquarium lights to promote plant and biofilm growth, creating a self-sustaining ecosystem that your shrimp will thrive in. This type of aquarium is highly customizable, allowing you to adapt it to your specific needs and preferences. I’ll also touch on the benefits of adding a small hang-on-back filter for mechanical filtration if you want an extra layer of protection, especially for beginners. Whether you’re just starting out in the shrimp-keeping hobby or looking to switch up your current tank setup, this video offers valuable insights to help you succeed. If you’re interested in learning more about filterless aquariums, I highly recommend reading Ecology of the Planted Aquarium by Diana Walstad. This book offers a fantastic foundation on the science behind these types of setups. Additionally, I have detailed setup videos for my Walstad shrimp tank, Pearlweed jungle tank, and Walstad shrimp jar, which I’ll link below for those looking for further guidance. For plant selection, make sure to check out Flowgrow's temperature tolerance database, especially if you're setting up an unheated shrimp tank. This will help you choose the best plants for your setup, ensuring they thrive even in cooler months.
