Hi,
I have a 5 gal galaxy tank with a real filter and biowheel. I currently have 3 serpae tetras and two zebra danios in there with live plants. I have two questions currently:
-I want something to live on the bottom, I had two ghost shrimp, but the other day my apartment's AC broke and the water temperature got to be 94F! Thye fish are all fine, but I do not see the shrimp any more. Talking to a local fish guy, he said that ghost shrimp are quite delicate and hard to keep. I dont anticipate any more AC problems, and so am wondering, what is the best bottom dweller? I have heard that red claw crabs are ok if theyre small. I wouldnt mind another shrimp either. I just need to mind the constraints of the tank, and make sure that my fish dont get eaten, as they are smaller sized fish. Any suggestions would be great.
-I currently have 5 small fish in there. They have a lot of room, and the tank seems kind of bare. Could I get away with, say two leopard danios? Would they school with the zebra ones? Whould I be better off getting two more zebra danios? I really like the two I have, they are a very nice silver/blue/yellow/black mix.
Thanks,
JMH
