Hi guys. Any ideas for tankmates for my ADF (nope, not clawed) that aren't fish? She's in a 10 gallon tank with various small snails, plants and some wood. So what else can I put in there that would be safe from her and that would not bother her either. BTW, I'm not prepared to raise tadpoles, so a male ADF is not in the picture. Thanks!

Some shrimp would work well--I'd probably stick with amanos or larger, simply because the cherries are small enough they might be a snack--but, they'd probably reproduce for you.
 
Thanks OG. I just finished reading about both types of shrimp and it seems the Cherry will be my best bet of the two. They are just a bit smaller and not so dependent on algae, especially hair algae, as the Amano's. Here's one of the articles I was reading that you might find of interest. It's actually a chat transcript from a guest live chat where the topic was Cherry shrimp.
