Some stuff that I've learned from having a RCS tank:

  • Seachem Iodide is good to have on hand, if you add two or three drops during water changes it helps the shrimp with their molts.

  • Cholla wood also makes for a great biofilm accumulator/shrimp hidey hole.

  • If you're going for a moss carpet, then you can pick up some window mesh at a Home Depot or something and then cut it to size and attach your moss to it. I used java moss and I didn't even have to tie it, I just put the mesh on top of the substrate, put the clump of moss that I ordered on top of the mesh, and weighed it down with a couple of rocks. It covers the entire area now!

  • I don't have a sponge filter so I just covered the intake tube with panty hose, it keeps the shrimp from being sucked in and they like to graze on it since it accumulates stuff that's too big to go through the pantyhose and into the filter. So that's another option if you can't get a sponge filter for some reason.

  • Most of the time they will just eat algae/biofilm/whatever from around the tank but you will need to supplement with something with a little more protein. Repashy Shrimp Souffle was reccomended to me and it's great, it's basically like shrimp jello and they are all over it like ants every time I drop some into the tank!

    Also, if you happen to live in the OKC area I can sell you some RCS, if you don't have any LFS that sell them and you don't want to risk shipping in the summer :)

    edit: grammar

I did some more research and discovered that iodine is toxic, but iodide is not (similar to chlorine and chloride). Are you talking about Seachem iodide? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002A5X5K/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1
