Hey guys/girls! I got this tank, I put in 4 cherry red shrimp on Sunday, and I have 1 betta, the shrimp are fine and have places to hide, it's a 3 gallon marineland crescent tank, and I wanted to know if I could add anymore shrimp, how many? Thanks!

I would start off with a group of 10 of them personally. That is assuming the betta doesn't realize that they are a delicious snack.

Haha okay, well I'm trying to keep his full that is why I've been feeding him in the morning and around 6

How long till they have babies?

 

[Mebbid]

A month or more depending on their age.

Okay because I have 4 right now , should I go back to the store and only buy 6 more to get 10? Or online and get the grade AA cherry shrimp (10 for $28) for a total of 14 shrimp in this 3 gallon tank?
