Hi all,

 

i would like to share with you my tank/bowl.

 

i have had this set up for nearly 4 months now with varying fish etc.

 

at the minute i have 

2 apple snails (down to 1 as he escaped and cannot be found :-/)

2 horned snails

1 shark 

1 bristle nose

2 other fish im not sure of the name, its escaped me as i am typing

and 2 red clawed crabs

I have had a betta fighting fish be he sadly passed away.

I would love to have shrimp in the tank but i am to afraid of my crabs eating them 

Its a fairly simple set up nothing extreme its only a 11 litre tank so it has a 25w heater a filter and a fluval prism Ceramic LED light.

the LED light i am very impressed with i have to say my mrs loves changing the colour with the remote as her mood (which is normally changed to red)

Honestly, I wouldn't try to put anymore of anything in this tank, it's extremely overloaded as it is.

Tanks this small are not really appropriate for fish, I dunno if the crabs are a threat, but if you want to put shrimp in there, you should at least get a larger tank for the fish first, or rehome them if you can't.

I have a separate tank which i am looking to set up for shrimp and the fish.

 

i am not loading any more in this as its more then enough :)

Very colourful millz I love the bowl. If i was you I'd ditch all the existing stock and toss some cherries in there instead. ;-) it does sound like it might be overstocked as bluestarfish mentioned - especially as the inhabitants mature and grow) so I hope you can manage it well in the medium - longterm.

Love n peace

Will
