) and I’ve noticed that water in it is turning a little brownish, so I tried Googling it and that’s how I stumbled upon this website.I read all the step by step instructions and FAQs, but I still have a couple questions:
1. I found a beautiful bowl I would like to use for a tank, but I want you to approve it first, because of the shape of it, and because the glass is slightly tinted blue. Would that have any effect on the shrimp? People seem to use those as fish tanks successfully, but I want to hear your opinion on it. Pictures attached.
2. I want to set up the tank (with weeks of waiting and growing algae of course) and buy a few new Supershrimp first to see how they like the conditions and if no one dies and it’s safe, only then put my guys from the ecosphere in there, because I don’t want them to die when I’m trying to save them, you know
Does this make any sense? If so, how long should I wait to make sure the environment in the tank is safe for my tiny ecosphere prisoners? 3. If I use an open bowl like on the pictures attached, is it safe to add snails? Are they going to stay under water and not try to crawl outside? Sorry if my question is silly. Also, is it better to add them right away or 4 weeks later with the shrimps?
4. I have some pebbles and shells I brought from the beach, can use those as a decor for the tank? If I can, then what`s the proper way to clean them?
Thank you in advance. I’ll appreciate any kind of recommendation and will share my progress with you.
P.S. My boyfriend thinks I’m insane. He is joking that I would try to make a Pet Rock happy if I could
