Most people may think that the larger the tank, the harder the maintenance, so some of beginners prefer choosing nano tank to be their first tank. However, this might not be the best choice for a beginner. Generally, you can easily buy a set of Nano tank with 9L to 20L water capacity, simple filter, and lighting in an aquarium shop. For experienced breeder, that equipment is enough for them to operate and maintain the tank. However, for a beginner, plenty of water definitely bring many benefit to your aquatic animal. Here is the key point : Buffer Capacity of Water. Sufficient water can dilute the nitrogenous waste released from aquatic animals. It helps to put off acidification, maintaining a steady pH range. Besides, you can simply change water to maintain the health of your aquatic animal before the Nitrogen Cycle establishes. Also, the larger the amount of water, the smaller the fluctuation of temperature, it gives your aquatic animal a chance to smoothly adapt to the temperature difference Considering convenience and space, we highly recommend you choose a tank with 60cm width. It’s easy to buy accessories fit this specification. This appropriate size allows you to breed every kind of shrimp you want as well as convenience of maintainance.
