Will Ghost and Cherry shrimp live together? I have 6 ghost shrimp in a 10g with a betta and he leaves them alone so I was wanting to add some color.

I know this response is a little late, but maybe it'll help other people. Just a heads up: if they breed, their color will always be that of the ghost shrimp. They'll live together fine though.

Yes you can. I used this to treat Ich myself in fish/shrimp tank. I would not do a shrimp/fish tank in the future. Goldfish are really messy and need 40 gallons for each fish and grow 14 inches, they will also eat anything that fits in their mouth. Your cherry shrimp are going to be snacks.

I can only tell you that most of the background of my aquarium is blocked from view by rocks and plants so the blue background only shows in small areas. I used black gravel and my fish just pop against those additions to my tank. I would prefer the blue as it seems to give more of a "water" look. I love my aquarium, by the way. Have fun with your fishes!

I haven't tried the shrimp with them yet but from what I have read they should be ok. I tried guppies and it didn't work. The guppies died but I don't honestly know if it was the crayfish. Guppies do spend time at the bottom of the tank which is where the crayfish are. I am going to try tetras which seem to be the fish most people recommend with the dwarf crayfish.

Yes...These critters are really cute, my daughter has bonded with them. Believe it or not, they have personality and are a lot of fun to watch!!Initially, they were petrified in their new home, but are very comfortable now. They can sometimes be aggressive with any bottom/slow moving dwellers. One of mine is much calmer than the other, so again, it's a chance you're taking. If you decide to put them in the same tank, be sure that it's very heavily planted so that both have plenty of places to hide. Good luck and happy holidays!

They are great quality, but even such this Is a small variety of shrimp, and will be only 1/4 to 1/2 or so, maybe bigger but not much. Get like 30 in a 5 gallon and it would look great. Tbh with these guys order more than you need, they are sensitive. That being said, the seller sent me.mine and ALL were live, its been MONTHS and most are alive.

I'm using one of these with my 10 gallon, 3 lights installed, two white, one red. I have java fern, java moss, vallisneria corkscrew, and two types of anubias & everything is growing extremely well under these lights! However, If you're trying to grow any groundcover (dwarf hair grass or dwarf baby tears) I have had zero luck getting that to grow at all. (I should mention it's a low tech tank, I don't use any Co2, but I do have lots of cherry shrimp generating fertilizer) Overall, I'm really happy with this light set-up.

YES! Do NOT put two Bettas in this tank! Not only can they see each other, the middle divider doesn't fit properly making it dangerous for both fish. I left for a few days and came back to both fish barly alive on the same side of the tank.

We added one of ours that grew very large to our freshwater tanks and he did just fine until we added a crawfish... the crawfish ate him. be careful of other fish that might eat him.

I don't actually have the glo fish...I have a betta, and for awhile there was also a snail. While the snail did frequently come up to the top of the bowl, neither of them ever made a move to actually jump out :)

I would say that if it is a betta, it probably won't be an issue. The previous poster was keeping platys, and more than one of them. I'm not surprised there were problems. If I put a zebra danio in there, it would probably jump out too. But bettas are a lot more sedate, and you only keep one, so he won't be trying to evade an annoying tankmate.

Hi Patrick.I don't know. I don't even know how I'm related to this post. I never got a 6 gal. Lol.

Well I have about 30 of these snails. One beta and two shrimp. I have learned to buy all my aquatic creatures as young as I can find them. That way the can adjust to my Eco system. When I bought big snails they all died, but my baby snails and juvenile shrimp are doing ok. I do not have a heater. However most of the summer my tank live in the basement. And I bring it back up in the fall. I do not have a turtle, but if you got maybe sixty snails, how many could your turtle eat !! &#128077; good luck

Laura K. I searched for an answer to no avail. I would steer clear of it. PS Cats don't really need fish.

I have the shrimps for almost a year now, they are still healthy and living. I feed them spirulina powder from vitamin world once a week or two. They seem to like it a lot.

This product has only brine shrimp. The second has spirulina in it. Spirulina gives the necessary protein. If u don't have any seperate spirulina flakes. I would suggest u to get the brine shrimp + spirulina cube.
