SkyLight MID-30R Intense

SkyLight MID-30R Intense lamps were designed in a very different way, than other vivarium/terrarium dedicated lighting products. The majority of available vivarium lamps are oriented around high brightness.

In some more advanced lamps like SKYLIGHT PRO, brightness is somewhat compromised for high color rendering index (CRI). MID-30R INTENSE mentioned above parameters are compromised to achieve one ultimate goal – vivid, intense colors.

A large portion of deep red light in the spectrum triggers phytochromes of plants to produce colorful protective pigments, while RGB based spectrum of the lamp allows the user to see his planted terrarium with deeper, more intense coloration. Additionally, the side glaring has been brought to the minimum in this product making looking at your vivarium a pure pleasure!

Acclimation of your shrimp:

We use the rule of three (3)

One part is their water that we send them in and 2 parts is your tank water.

Drip Acclimation Tools:

Small tupperware bowl or something similar
Plastic cup or aquarium airline hose
Scissors
Shrimp or fish net
Airline tubing

Removing Shrimp from the Bag:

If you received your shrimp in a breather bag you’ll want to place the bag directly inside the tupperware. Make sure to not pour the shrimp out because they may get stuck inside the bag.

With your scissors, cut the side of the bag, starting from the top. This will let the water pour out the bag and the bag will remain inside the bowl with the shrimp.
Carefully remove the shrimp that remained behind in the bag. You can also dip the bag in the water to achieve this.
Your shrimp should now be inside the tupperware.

Using airline tubing to acclimate:

Allow water to drip into the tupperware with shrimp at 2 – 3 drops per second. Apply the rule of 3 here, One part existing water from shrimp bag and 2 parts your existing tank water. Dripping should take 1 hour to complete. We believe that dripping shrimp for hours on end creates more stress and can harm your newly purchased critters.
Once the water in the tupperware is mainly tank water you can safely introduce your shrimp to your tank.
We have had a 100% success rate with the above method.
