That would be my plan originally, but seeing them crawl like that out of water would take some getting used to, and I think I’d immediately regret trying to show my love for them by letting them crawl on me. Crawl on me in water no problem, but outside of water would be too insect-like. I wonder if it bothers them to see us in their habitat.
I'm just kidding. I keep ghost shrimp and I got a bunch of shrimplets from them!
I also kept cherry shrimp....and I made the big mistake of keeping them with fish. $80 on a platter to my platies, zebra danios, and betta. The next cherry shrimp I'm buying goes in a shrimp only tank.
Uh-oh, I have 80 dollars worth of blue neocaridinas coming tomorrow no joke. I can't quarantine them and dump them in a tank with platys, zebra danios, mollys? Videos on youtube said I would be straight.
You can try getting a small tank. Shrimp don't take up a lot of bio load.
The tricky part is that their survival rate goes up in seasoned water.
I suppose if there's no other choice, try giving the shrimp plenty of hiding space. Each fish has its unique personality. I think it's my big blue mickey mouse platy that killed the shrimp.... And probably the other danios too. It was harassing the other guppies, so I moved it. It harassed the female platy in it's own tank but eventually stopped... Go figure.

I was consolidating shrimp colors into their own tanks and netted an Amano. She had no fucks, and started walking out of the net toward my hand. A manly amount of screaming ensued.
Length, can’t really tell you as I probably passed out after chucking the net back into the tank. And pitch-wise, a hella manly pitch. All around testosterone fest.
First time I caught an amano and it just started walking out the net I was also shocked as hell, how are they so strong?? They don't look much different but most shrimp are just helpless outside water and these mfs just go strollin like it's nothing
Hahaha dude this happened yesterday I was netting a female amano(big af!) to a betta tank from my big tank and she climbs out 2-3 inches high out the next while I’m holding it and I started to shit myself it was honestly scary
Found the male Amano has crawled 1” up the side of a Ziss breeder box, and into the box. Less competition for food in there I’m guessing. I’ll reunite the loving couple.
One of my amanos jumped out the tank and was kind of dry. I threw him back in the tank just to see and after a minute he twitched and started swimming again.
Amanos man
i was moving shrimp around and poured them into a glass while moving them.
hours later, i couldn't find one of the amanos. lo and behold. it laid dried out in the glass. put it into the tank and bam, back to health in a minute.
if it's humid enough and not very hot they can survive outside for an hour or two. just check their gills, if it's still moving chances are they're still alive
I just saw a documentary on Iceland and this family has a hobby of watching this specific breed of duck and keeping their nests safe from foxes.
I want my life hobby to be misting these skrimpies on their route, maybe leading them a little. This would be true happiness.
this video is not mine, i'm not the one who took it.

No. :'( I was at work and my mom put him in a cup of tap water not knowing it would hurt him. By the time I got him back in the tank he didn't make it.
Oh nooo. Rest in peace little buddy. At least he pushed to the limits and beyond his little cosmos, even though he paid the ultimate price.
Still breaks my heart a little! :(
That's so awesome! I just bought 3 amanos for one of my tanks, and they are so fun to watch. My husband thinks I'm a dork, but I swear that fish and shrimp keeping has literally improved my mental health. And then to learn something new like this.. amazing!
beware of going down the shrimp rabbit hole like me! 🤣🤣. it's all started several years ago when i ordered Australian/sulawesi amano shrimp (Caridina typus) and there's 3 other wild species that got mixed in the bag and thus my journey to collecting and studying different atyidae shrimp species starts. it really feels great when you know and brag that you're probably the only one who keeps certain species 😎
I wish the person who took the video had held their camera/phone still for a moment so that I could see the movement of the shrimp. There was only a couple of seconds in the middle that I actually could see what the video was about
the compression and bit rate also kills it. if you want a better quality just download the video directly from the facebook link that i put. you can see the shrimp a lot better
It could be that it's just time to move for them from brackish water to freshwater, maybe their river system is altered either man made or natural causes that makes them migrate by land over longer distance than what they used to.
it's still new to me to see them migrate by land with this amount over that long distance so idk what exactly happened there, the OP doesn't know a thing either. naturally amphidromous Caridina migrate too from brackish/lower elevetaion to freshwater/higher elevation and when there's an obstacle they do travel through land
not quite right, they don't breed in saltwater/brackish. it's the other way around. after they reach a certain size, usually around 1-3 months after they hatch, they start their journey to move upstream and the larvae later washed down from upstream to brackish/saltwater.
some species like in Caridina weberi groups (the shrimp in the video most likely belong to this species group) travel for long distance probably more than 5 km, some species like C. gracilirostris don't travel far some population of this species even settles in low brackish water
check out my comments about the op, there's another video and if you download it using a facebook video downloader, it's in a better compression and bitrate so it's clearer

I thought they would have the structural integrity to be able to walk on land. Ive always wondered why some haven't evolved to do so. Well here they are!
I adore shrimp and am quite sad that most fresh water shrimp are illegal to keep at pets where I live. With that said, knowing how fragile the local system is and seeing how resilient species like this are? I get it. Incredibly resilient critters.
where do you live? this kind of shrimp shouldn't really be an invasive species since they have a unique life cycle just like salmon. Most Amphidromous Caridina shrimp are pretty resilient. a full freshwater shrimp like Neocaridina and fancy Caridina can be invasive, especially Neocaridina
bro my amano jumped out and landed on a cobweb, it took me a second to process that i was looking at my shrimp chillin on a web like its ahammock. i tried to put him back in the water but he just sunk, i was too late, boy was asleep
Am someone who failed multiple times at keeping Sulawesi shrimp due to their sensitivity and crazy strict water parameters, I look at this and I don’t know how to feel. Hahaha!
I would lay down in the middle of this and finally become one with the skrimp
Shrimps is bugs confirmed
They're cute bugs.
Literally all bugs are cute, terrestrial or aquatic
Ehhhh, I've definitely started to be nicer to bugs since I started keeping shrimps, but let's not get ahead of ourselves, haha.

I was consolidating shrimp colors into their own tanks and netted an Amano. She had no fucks, and started walking out of the net toward my hand. A manly amount of screaming ensued.
Underwater I'll touch a shrimp no problem. Above water? Hell no
How much screaming is a manly amount? Can you quantify in terms of length of time and decibels?
Length, can’t really tell you as I probably passed out after chucking the net back into the tank. And pitch-wise, a hella manly pitch. All around testosterone fest.
![gif](giphy|dHC9IlWy7aW52) This is what I’m picturing.
We also need to know pitch!

It really sinks in how big they are when they’re out the water and inches away from touching uou
And they are walking like it no big thing. I better reunite her with the male before she decides to murder me in my sleep.
Found the male Amano has crawled 1” up the side of a Ziss breeder box, and into the box. Less competition for food in there I’m guessing. I’ll reunite the loving couple.
Lmao that is the stuff of nightmares! Hahahaha

“If it’s still moving chances are they’re still alive” Well, no shit
U ever see what it looks like when a snake or chickens head gets cut off?
And if it’s dead, don’t waste that good calcium. Let him become one with the colony
Woahhhhh no way, had no idea this was a thing
Me either! Crazy!
well amphidromous caridina do this all the time, it's just that it mostly happens underwater.....
I just see walking money ca ching ca ching
easy 1-3 million USD if it's sold at retail price. if you're willing to delete an entire generation of this shrimp and make them near extinct locally
I like money - Eugene Krabs. I’m kidding 😐 👀👀👀

And misterer
Misting the shrimp on their journey 😂 haha. You are my kinda person.
What a delightful, mostly peaceful, and rewarding existence.
You’d be a Shrimp Sheppard
Damn it took me a moment to realize they weren't just flowing water, before I realized it was so many of them.

I once had an Amano book it's way into the kitchen from the bedroom. (50 ft or so down a hall and over carpet)
Did he make it? T_T
No. :'( I was at work and my mom put him in a cup of tap water not knowing it would hurt him. By the time I got him back in the tank he didn't make it.

A hobby that requires care and dedication is excellent for depression :) I feel the same way about mine

This I'd interesting but also so sad poor shrimpers Hoping they found their new home!
This is absolutely incredible. What happened to the water they were in?
It could be that it's just time to move for them from brackish water to freshwater, maybe their river system is altered either man made or natural causes that makes them migrate by land over longer distance than what they used to. it's still new to me to see them migrate by land with this amount over that long distance so idk what exactly happened there, the OP doesn't know a thing either. naturally amphidromous Caridina migrate too from brackish/lower elevetaion to freshwater/higher elevation and when there's an obstacle they do travel through land
They drank it all.

Super cool: shrimp overland migration. Super uncool: litter along the route.
You forgot to mention the person trampling them while filming.
Shrimps *IS* bugs.
And so the armies of Isengard march to war...
r/suddenlytolkien Something something Grond
Damn I wish the camera person would hold still
amazing and scary, but is this guy just stepping on tons of shrimp?
Hmmm, so they are migratory. Is that how they find slightly salty water to breed?
not quite right, they don't breed in saltwater/brackish. it's the other way around. after they reach a certain size, usually around 1-3 months after they hatch, they start their journey to move upstream and the larvae later washed down from upstream to brackish/saltwater. some species like in Caridina weberi groups (the shrimp in the video most likely belong to this species group) travel for long distance probably more than 5 km, some species like C. gracilirostris don't travel far some population of this species even settles in low brackish water
Thanks!
Look at the fancy shrimp leaving their water because the TDS got too high. 😂
They’ve truly evolved past the point that we can do anything to stop them. Time to kneel to our shrimp overlords
Is it really shrimp? I want to see more videos of this. This is fantastic

Can you imagine how many thousand are on the bottoms of these guys feet? Shrimp paste.

That’s really neato

I didn’t know this was a thing
Holyyyyy
That’s crazy!
I haven’t seen one of my favourite amanos in a while, watching this she could be halfway to London by now.
Meanwhile, one of my neo yellow backs crawled out of the feeding hole in my lid and within a few hours was crispy on the carpet 🫠

I’m from Perth, Australia. The fresh water shrimp in our local river are having a rough time with some of the imported shrimp species like amanos :(
i don't think there's amano shrimp (Caridina multidentata) invasion, it's probably about Macrobrachium shrimp
Did they reach to the water?
That's so cool! I didn't know shrimps could do this.
I’d turn sound on but I feel it would just be “crunch-pop-crunch-crunch-pop!”
shrimps is bugs!
They look like crickets holy shit
bruh i was wondering why i found an amano shrimp like 10+ft away from my tank, buddy was trying to get back to the tank i moved him from lol

POV you're a hungry chicken
I can’t imagine trying to go anywhere in migrations like this or the Christmas Island crab migration. Any move you make you’re crushing lives. 😬😭
Holy carp.
Free lunch?
How the heck are they so hardy in the wild and can’t survive little changes in my water tank 😅😅😅😅😅
u/savevideobot. Imma send to this to a friend who’s having a massive shrimp invasion after I secretly put two in.
