Hi,
I feel like setting up my 2.5 gallon for an algae/shrimp tank. I have a few questions about essentials, plants, etc. First off, I set it up by a well lighted window and put some natural river rock in there to start the algae. Since it would be inside, I didn't worry about a heater. Would the algae provide enough oxygenation and filteration in the water to not need a filter/airator. After all that, my choices are red cherry shrimp or blueberry shrimp.
Thanks
