I just upgraded my cherry shrimp tank from 2.5g to 10g. It has a sponge filter powered by a Tetra Whisper air pump and a 20" Finnex Stingray light. Current stock is 18 cherry shrimp and 3 assassin snails. I've only had them for a few weeks and they're quite young, so I'm hoping they'll start...

I'm looking for 2 assassin snails to add to my 2.5 gallon cherry shrimp tank to control the pest snail population. I've looked on aquabid, but haven't been able to find any available in small enough quantities. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I recently got a Finnex FugeRay for my 20 long. A lot of people recommended the Planted+, but I was afraid of it being too much light since I'm not doing co2 and this is my first tank so I don't have much experience. So far I've really been liking my FugeRay. All of my plants seem to be doing...

Okay, thanks! I'm really new to shrimp, and aquariums in general, so I wasn't sure. Do they require any different care than cherries? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Is that what the red/clearish one is? I bought all cherry shrimp, but that is the only one marked that way. I'm really new to shrimp, so I wasn't sure if it was a cherry or not. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

My new 2.5g cherry shrimp tank. It's my first shrimp tank. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I recently set up a 2.5 gallon shrimp tank and got some cherry shrimp from a LFS. This is my first time owning shrimp, except ghost shrimp. I know male shrimp are much paler than females, but do cherry shrimp have color patterns like the picture below? All the other cherry shrimp I got are a...

Here is what it currently looks like. I added the lava rock for some color, but I'd still like to add some more colorful plants. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I currently have anacharis, banana plants, jungle val, anubias, java fern, water wisteria, hornwort, and some type of crypt. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I'm really wanting to add some color to my planted tank, but I'm not sure of any reddish plants that would work well for my setup. I have a 20 long with a 30" Finnex FugeRay. I have sand substrate and use Flourish root tabs, along with just starting to use Flourish once a week. I do not have any...

I went to a LFS today to pick up some cherry shrimp, and they included some free plants in the bag so the shrimp would have something to hold on to. I'm excited because I've been wanting some plants I could float, but I'm quite new to planted tanks and need some help identifying it. There are...

I feed Omega One Betta Buffet Pellets, and my betta seems to really like it. When I first got him I had a Tetra brand food and he wouldn't hardly touch it, but he's been eating Omega great for over 2 years now. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

The tank is already stocked, except for the platys, I currently just have 1. My parameters have been steady and everybody looks like they have plenty of space, so I feel like the 2 additional platys would be okay. I just want to get a few opinions first since I'm still a beginner in this hobby...

I have a 20 long with 2 Aquaclear 30 filters. I would say it is lightly to moderately planted....good amount of anacharis, 2 banana plants, 3 anubias, java fern, water wisteria, and a jungle val. I recently added a platy because I heard they don't school, but after reading more I would really...
