Ugh.

Also, I'm not sure you'd want to put those in with your cherry shrimp. I personally wouldn't risk it. I've read that even the regular ghost shrimp can be way more aggressive with food than cherry shrimp. Sent from my iPad using Aquarium Advice

I've heard that sometimes a larger, more aggressive shrimp gets sold as ghost shrimp. You might try googling Macrobrachium shrimp, and see if this is what you have. Sent from my iPad using Aquarium Advice

Great, thanks! I've got a lot of snails to feed them. I have a 33 gallon tank full of pond snails that I use to feed the assassin snails in the big tank. :)

This is the location. That (very blue) wave-point light is just on there until I decide for sure which way I'm going with this tank.

Still not 100% sure on salt, brackish, or fresh. This tank will be next to my 100 gallon planted tank in the family room though, and when I set up the 100 gallon and told my husband I was setting it up as a freshwater tank he said "freshwater, but that's boring!!", so I'm leaning toward brackish...

That is great news!! I've been wanting to keep an angler for a while now. I just assumed this tank would be too small. I guess since they aren't really active swimmers, as long as I can keep good parameters I should be okay. I'll use a skimmer and also will grow macro in the tank (if anglers are...

I did have a mandarin once. I somehow managed to buy the most shy and boring mandarin ever (even my husband commented on his lack of personality!) They sure are pretty fish though! I have a sailfin sculpin in each of my coldwater tanks that have huge personalities though, so it's hard for most...

Does anyone have any experience with a Japanese Redfin waspfish? I can't find any info on tank size for these guys, but it looks like they stay small. I'm wondering if one would be appropriate for a tank this size.

Would love to do an angler tank but isn't it a pretty small tank for an angler? I was also thinking Mantis, it seems like it might be a good setup for one. Too small for a peacock mantis I'm guessing? I'm not very familiar with other any other mantis. I want this tank to be the occupants...

I've thought about puffers. Brackish is something I've never kept before. Liveaquaria is saying 30 gallon minimum for them? Are they really messy or something?

I've thought about adding one of these to my 100 gallon planted tank. They look really cool, and would go with the current stock well, I think. ?

Right now I have a 100 gallon F/W planted with about 300 RCS, neon green and ember tetras, and a family of albino longfin bushynose Pleco's.

Hi, I picked up this 3/4" thick acrylic tank a few weeks ago with the intention of turning it into a California biotope cold saltwater tank, but I've got two other cold saltwater tanks running at the moment (as well as 2 planted freshwater, and a reef tank). I'm not really sure I want a 3rd...

My newest addition... 100 gallon tank, filled right now with about 300 cherry shrimp, a small school of albino cory's, a mating pair of albino longfin BN plecos, and about 10 green neon and ember tetras. I'm going to add about 20 more green neons next time I make it to the LFS (2 hours away)
