So i stopped in at petcetera today and bought a tank

[spit.fire]

im a sucker for a sale, i ended up walking out with a second fluval spec and to be honest i have no idea what im going to put in it, the only thing i can think of is crs and a beta depending on if they can be mixed or not

[effox]

I wouldn't mix them, maybe cherries because of their cheap cost, but bettas are big enough to eat shrimp.

[spit.fire]

dang

so its either shrimp + neons or another nano marine tank

You should do a shrimp tank, they're actually quite entertaining, and they breed prolifically if you have your water parameters set up ideally.

would a single panda cory do fine with shrimp?

[crazy72]

Cories like to school. IMHO it wouldn't be fair to put a single cory in a tank.

How about white cloud minnows? Very nice and active, and I believe they are fine with shrimp (although don't quote me on that, it needs to be confirmed by shrimp keepers...).

[spit.fire]

i think the white clouds would look nice in there and if they breed i could use them as feeders

[crazy72]

Funny this is what prompted me to suggest them actually.

I've never had them in there, only ottos, a dwarf pleco and zebra danios, but I've read on here that it's fine to keep them in, they won't bother the adult shrimps. Just have moss and stuff for the baby shrimp to hide in or they'd probably end up being tasty snacks.

its either that or another tank like this

which is my other spec that im looking for anemones for
