Re: what fish can live with cherry shrimp?

The only fish we keep here in Sweden with shrimps are endlers and other small livebearers but i think if you are keeping shrimps for breeding purposes i would rather just have a shrimp only tank

Change of plans. Instead of using Fluval Shrimp Stratum, i'll be using Ebi Gold ShrimpSoil. My question is, during waterchange, can i use treated water instead of r/o water? or is r/o water a must?

Re: Shrimp in same tank without breeding with each other

watch out with those tigers as they would interbreed and would probably mostly get wildforms and in over time the blue tigers will be gone and only wild types will be in the tank.
