thanks guys. there are several mts in there and probably a couple pond snails too. mostly just shrimp though, i think there's at least 80 red cherries in there.
made a few small changes. i had to take out the taller thin leaved plant because it kept over taking the tank. i added a peice of driftwood from another tank i had to move, a few rocks and a couple different plants. i also took out the bamboo. it looked great but was tall and in the way of removing the lid at water changes. it is now growing happily in my window and has sprouted some new shoots.
