In this shrimp-room tour, I explain how my established soft-water Caridina tanks are running with very infrequent water changes and little commercial food. I show the biofilm, algae, banana leaves, active soil and increased sponge-filter flow that support the method, along with colonies at different stages. This is my experience in mature, monitored tanksβnot a recommendation to stop water changes in every aquarium. Test your own water and respond to your livestock.
