Have at it! I always love to help.
And if your shrimps don't seem to thrive, you can always move them to a small bowl. I had a simple 1 gallon bowl with dirt underneath and sand on top (called the walstad methdod) with some hardy plants. The cherries thrived in there until my water decided to go ape ****. So fear not!
thanks! I will keep you updated on how the tank goes!
