I have a ten gallon aquarium with an aqua clear 20 (extra bio, no carbon), no heater, ( temperature stays around 74 degrees)

I have one endler and a ghost shrimp in it right now to keep it cycled.

I'm thinking of adding a school of emerald dwarf rasboras and a bunch of cherry shrimp, and breeding them both. Should I add anything else? How many fish? Any suggestions?

Thanks for your help!:fish1:
 
The endler and the shrimp will have low bioloads, Leaving your bacteria colony very small to compensate for the limited bioload. If you did stock the rasboras, add them slowly, to allow the bacteria to multiply accordingly. 1-3 at a time would be okay, but if you add 3+ at a time, I would do a 50 percent water change the next day
