my new aquarium q & a's

Post by maxcow »

i already waited for my new aquarium to get a visible layer of algae (3 weeks) and put in some ghost shrimp but i still have some questions. i have a sponge filter and plants (i keep live plants in all my tanks) but i am having trouble breeding. also what species of crays can i put in with them that wont shred the plants and shrimp?

Ghost shrimp go through a larvae stage that need to be fed micro-food items before they molt into adult form.

You could add some dwarf crays. Any regualr crays will shred your plants and enjoy you ghosties immensely.
