I've been planning a tank for these guys since about late November last year and it's finally starting to come together.
I'm going to have 6 fish in a 10 gallon with 36 shells and ten pounds of CaribSea Aragonite substrate to help raise my pH to 8.0
Soon, I'm picking up my filter (not exactly sure what kind yet, but we'll see) and a heater. I'll keep the tank around 79-80. I've found plenty of pre-programmed heaters that stay at "78+2F," but I'd prefer an adjustable one.
Will a pre-set heater be fine, or should I try to get an adjustable one?
I originally planned to have some rocks in the tank as well, but it'd be a while before I'd be able to get some, so I've scratched that idea, at least for now.
My ultimate goal is to have a breeding colony, so I'm planning on starting a brine shrimp culture as well, but we'll see on that.
