I had similar problem - got snails with some plants from a colleague. I bought 3 assassin snails and they have managed the whole population of the pest snails in a month time. My tank is 60 l. Hope this helps.

Great info, thanks for sharing! :thumbup: Some more info about grading and additives will be great. :thumbup:

Good luck with those my friend! Hope that you will have a good number of survivors from the offspring and that you will be able to establish a stable colony of rilis- maybe the first in UK!

Great pic and scape, George! I have been keeping red cherries without a heater in a room tempreture of 22-24 degrees C, so in the tank must be about 20-22. They used to breed fine! Regards

Re: Advice for cherry shrimp set-up The setup sound fine to me. Any of the described food will do. I have treated them with Hikari and Shirakura, but just because I had some at home :) Waiting for the pictures :D Regards
