When asked, “What is the most essential part to a successful shrimp tank?” we will always respond with three key factors: leaf matter, java moss, and a piece of driftwood.
The reason we use driftwood is because it creates surface area. What we mean is this, shrimp need places to hide, graze and sit on. By adding driftwood to an aquarium, one can more than double the surface area in a tank. Another benefit we see from using driftwood is the tannins it releases. These tannins leach from the driftwood into the water column carrying a multitude of anti-fungal and antibacterial properties. Although most people prefer clear aquarium water, here at Flip Aquatics we find that the slight discoloration adds character to the tank and allows the shrimp to feel more comfortable.
I bought two pieces of Caspian wood for my 10 gallon aquarium and wrapped it with guppy grass. This wood is perfect for holding floating plants in place due to its twisting and curling branches.
Within minutes my peacock gudgeons were exploring and my neocaridina shrimp were doing their tippy tap dance.
The one caveat I have, is that my mystery snail loves it too, and she's a bull in a china shop. So if you have larger snails, you'll have to find ways to anchor them in place. She's an absolute menace to my designs! lol
Overall, I love the look. Definitely recommend getting some for your tank.
