I want either a 20 gallon or another 10 gallon. But I have to talk my mom into it first....
You don't have to have a five gallon for shrimp... you could even keep some in a one gallon.

I think a C shaped tank would be cool. That way I could put it on (my future) desk in my (future) office, and only have a view of the fish... unless I turn around. But the problem is I might get distracts from doing work!

My PETCO is a bunch of jerks. They won't even tell me anything about it. They're playing stupid and acting like they don't know there's supposed to be a sale.

I'm gonna get a 40 if my dad jumps on the aquarium bandwagon. Fingers crossed

well i want to breed them for a future fig 8 puffer. i bought three amano shrimp today for my brackish tank and i love them. they were the only shrimp petco had. i dont have any other lfs for 50 miles. amanos are hard to breed but are brackish but can live perfectly fine in fresh. they breed like nerite snails except they do not need full marine for their larva unlike nerites but still similar.

i know my future puffer will eat them so i plan on taking them out before i get one or making them an over priced snack. they were about $2 each and from the looks of it my mudskipper may take them out before then. he keeps trying but failing.

Do you know how long it lasts? Is it two weeks again?
