Nicks 10 gallon Multi Shell dweller Tank

[Nikachu0315]

Hello i bought a 10 gallon tank because of petcos 1$ a gallon so i picked this up and some other stuff and i was wondering if i could put in 2 multi shell dwellers? And possibly a Albino Bristle nose pleco? P.s i cycled the tank .

Yes that would work. If it were me i wouldnt add the pleco. But yes you could have 2 multis. Make sure you have sand at least 3in deep and about 6 shells.

Oh because in my other tank there is a albino bristlenose pleco and i dont think he likes all the snails in there

 

[Oscar98]

By all means you could lol. Im just saying i wouldnt. But it would prob work i might be setting up a 40b with multis soon but idk. Go ahead and put it in with them.

Here's the tank and where should I get the shells?



Should I move anything? The shells will be in the middle



Here's Tucker My albino bristlenose pleco

Switch the substrate to sand if it isnt already. Lfs usually have them and if not go to a local grocery store and buy escargot shells and clean them.

It's sand mixed with crushed coral:/ and I've noticed tucker every now and then bob for air is this normal? If it needs more air i think I have an airstone

Can the coconut shell subsitute for the driftwood? I heard plecos eats some wood? :Edit: I looked online and it did coconut or driftwood is fine
