Petshrimp tank

Post by Timcsi »

Hi All, I'm wondering if somebody could provide me information of what kind of tank should I buy for my petshrimps? The one that's closed on the top or the opened one? Not sure if they can or will walk or jump out from an open tank. Thank you! :)

Hi Timcsi! You can choose just about any tank you like. I would suggest at the very smallest 1/2 gallon on up to however big you want. I would also suggest a tank with a lid to reduce evaporation.

Thank you jcfrank!

So a tank with a lid to avoid evaporation and not also because the shrimps would walk out of it?

Thank you

They can't and won't walk out or jump out. :)
