Sparkling gouramis should not exceed 3-4 cm.

If you live near SoCal, give Plantboy a.k.a. Mgamer20o0 a pm if you want his shrimps and plants.;)

The driftwood is cool. I agree, a couple of sparkling gouramis and some cherry shrimp would fit nicely in the tank.

Great job aquascaping the 10 g and 20 l!

All your tank look very nice! Love the driftwood. Nobody sells any nice driftwood around me. Lucky to find a piece once in a while that might be 6" long. That new tank would be great for shrimps and plants!
