I have three wood shrimp and five amano shrimp in my 20 long. The wood shrimp are so fun to watch, easily some of my favorite aquatic creatures I've ever kept.
I have a 54 gallon corner tank with a Cascade 700 filter and I'm looking for some fun and unique stocking ideas.
I currently have three giant danios, a cherry barb, and a platy.
I plan on adding some more cherry barbs to make a larger schooler.

Has anyone kept African filter shrimp (Atya gabonensi)?
I am very interested in keeping this species. I know it requires strong water flow. I have a 20 long with two filters, and the water flow is very strong. I have kept three Singapore flower shrimp (another filter feeder) in this tank for...

I've cared for cold-water marine tanks at a small public aquarium for many years and I'd love to set up a tropical saltwater tank sometime. I'm especially interested in keeping invertebrates. From what I understand, the main types of tanks are FOWLR and reef. Is it easy to keep some arthropods...
