I would think a 20g would be just fine , plus you have a little more room than a 10g. I seen a 90g shrimp tank on there the other day, so hardly think 20 would be overkill lol
Bigger tanks are fine for shrimp. Just be aware that this will be a tall tank though and shrimp tend to colonize the lower strata.

Your shrimp will love the 20. You can build up the scape so they utilize the entire height of the tank

Just curious, Marko. Did you decide to set up the 20 Munster rimless gallon shrimp tank? Any chance of a journal?
No I went on vacation for a week and buy the time I got home the tank was soldbut I will be setting up one even if it is only a ten gallon .
