Where are you buying five and five of the shrimp?

Idk, decisions decisions.
Would gravel be an ok substance for them? Or would sand/soil be better? Also how do they like their tank set up? Food ideas? Sorry but I'm clueless when it comes to shrimp! Also just to add on to how many tanks I have in my room: x1 55, x1 13, x 1 5, x1 2.5 and soon x1 8
User said:Wow you have a 55 in your room?? lucky! anyway.. I am sure they will be just fine with a gravel substrate and I think most plants will be fine as well. There should be a decent amount of cover and an open area, this is how I am going to set up mine. You can buy shrimp food if you want but they are scavengers and will eat most food. Mine ate crushed up algea wafers and tropical fish food.
Yes a PVC pipe would not be a bad addition. It will give them a place to hide. I would cover it with moss to make it look natural
