Film naturally without provoking behavior, and include tank history and water tests with the clip.

Keep the clip undisturbed

Rest the phone against a stable surface and record the aquarium during normal activity. Avoid tapping the glass or chasing shrimp into view.

Capture enough tank context to show the filter and affected area, while keeping the camera outside the water.

Add a useful description

Include when the behavior started, how many shrimp are affected, and any recent maintenance or additions.

List relevant water readings with test method and units. A video cannot reveal ammonia, hardness, or other chemistry.

Ask for observation, not a diagnosis

Explain what you are unsure about and request help identifying what to check next. Do not treat comments as a substitute for qualified veterinary advice.

Save the original clip and avoid filters or edits that could change color or movement.
