Well, I am in the process of cycling my new 10g for red cherry shrimp. Here are updated pictures. I will update pictures as I get it going over the next few weeks!
Shrimp rock.
Nuff said.
HiJaC -- I am not sure what you mean?.....is there a plant called shrimp rock or is there a certain type of rock they like? Forgive my newness...lol
Guppy grass (Naja sp) or any of the mosses are great for shrimp tanks.
Yeah that wood looks large for a 10G from the pics. I just added a large piece to my 10G also, its almost too big for mine, would be much better in at least a 29G, especially from an aquascaping perspective.BTW - I really want to keep those nice slab rocks that I put in there already...I am trying to figure out how to keep at least one of them with that massive piece of wood also! I don't want it to look overcrowded. I want to be able to see those cute little shrimp once they are in there.

I think you should prop the wood up so it lays at an angle from the middle bottom and goes up leaning on either back corner. So it will look like this(/) or (\), then you can still see around it and under/behind it. Hard to explain, just have the wood high up on one back corner of the glass, like 1/2 way to the top or more. Basically it would be leaning on the glass rear corner, then use gravel and one of your rocks or both in the opposite corner front to anchor/keep it held in there.
