    Now Can I Keep Shrimp?

    I have cherrys with my mountain minnows, I have reason to believe a vast ammount of the babies get eaten but aslong as the tank is heavily planted and there are plenty of low hiding spaces you should have success.

    Apple snails killers ?

    mine die exactly the same, i presume the rest of the snails just eat the corpse. I put it down to lack of food seen as i dont feed them anything :?:

    Nerite snails work well

    Ive just woken up this morning to find my nerite on the OUTSIDE of the tank glass :eh: ive popped him back in, but why would he do that to me, i thought we were friends :jawdrop

    Apple snails

    I thought it was becuase they can get a build up of air in their shell, which would eventually cause them to float, but, Darrels explanation is better :D

    Acclimatising Shrimp

    same here, or if i acclimatise them, thats will only be leaving the bag on top of the water for 5 mins then adding water for another 5 mins, then in.

    Smallest container/tank for shrimp?

    on the basis that they breed like crazy i would say no smaller than 3-5 gallons, depending on the actual dimensions of the tank.

    how many shrimp for 8gallon?

    ok, will do.. filter is matured already, and the 20 cherrys will be only babies so hopefully wont have to wait too long :D

    how many shrimp for 8gallon?

    well, this is my dilema- i have about 3 tiger shrimp that will go in regardless, and then depending on whether you guys think i will only need a few more(up to 7 more) i will get some crystal reds.. but if you recommend alot, then i mayaswell get the 20 cherrys off LD for £23 and then add my 3...

    Best Algae Eating Snail?

    ok, thanks. it is cherrys, but i will figure a way of controlling them, the other possible stocking is: 2 snails(if needed) some small nano sized shoalers, not sure of species- probably max a couple of cm's

    Best Algae Eating Snail?

    Best Algae Eating Snail?

    ok, thanks guys, its coz originally i was thinking about having otto's, but i think snails will suit better.. so i am getting some cherrys off london dragon(20), then if i get about 3 snails(is that enough, too much?) and then i just need to find a nano fish, like max 1inch shoalers, either...
