Speedie Aquatics

Nick (aka speedie408) has been explosive in the US shrimp scene in 2011, and I suspect he'll be a big player in the years to come. I first communicated with Nick on The Planted Tank forum in regards to...planted tanks! His willingness to offer advice on caring for plants, aquascaping, and even photography truly demonstrates his knowledge of this hobby, and his positive attitude towards helping others - it's no wonder so many individuals admire him!
I remember a time when he didn't care much for keeping shrimp, but that's all changed now. These little critters can really catch one's attention, and for the benefit of us all, I'm glad they got his. Combine his passion for photography and his amazing livestock, and you will get some of the most beautiful shrimp photos out there. Nick recently launched Speedie Aquatics, a website dedicated to his tanks, plants, fish, and shrimp; check it out, it's okay to drool a little :)

  1. Donny,

    I didn't know you featured me on your blog here. Thank you for the kind words sir! I think if it's anyone that needs featuring, it should be you! ;)

    Best regards,

    Nick

    1. No problem, Nick! You've really "upped" shrimpkeeping in the US and deserve recognition. My operation is small-scale compare to yours ; )

  2. Not sure if you've posted about it yet but you should do a write up on how to keep baby shrimp alive from when they're born, to adulthood. That's what the American shrimp keepers need! Do it up bro! :D

    1. I have not yet posted about my method of keeping/feeding shrimplets - will work on it, hopefully it'll be useful for shrimpkeepers. Thanks for the suggestion!
