Getting afew shrimp for a tank. its a lightly under stocked 20 gallons with a 60x30foot print.

With 5 lemon tet, 5 pristella tet and 6 harliquin rasb. I do 15% water change every 3rd day and have a nice bed of live plants in the tank also.

I would only want 1 species of shrimp so my question how many of each shrimp could i keep? I have a reasonable idea but i like getting some opinions.
 
I would do 3 Amano shrimp, supplementing them as needed they really love the Hikari bottom feeder wafers.

or
30 (could do up to 100 or so when they breed lol) Cherry shrimp

or
10-15 Ghost shrimp.

:cool:
 
I would think you could do 5 amano shrimp and what was said about the other shrimp in the post before mine sounds good
 
pretty sure your fish will eat your shrimps if you get cherries.

i would get amano shrimp
