Hope everyone is having a nice start to the new year. Now my otos have settled in nice and the initial brown filamentous algae and bit of staghorn I had has cleared up, I'm wondering what type of shrimp to put in this tank as it's set up as a large breeder with the shrimp safe sump I deseigned. I always like the idea of natives, They have to serve their purpose (eat algae and dead plant matter) and they must be quite nice and "desired" To start I thought chamealeons, they are just a hugely under rated cool as native shrimp. I know they aren't native haha I reaally want Sulaswesi shrimp in there, but I think the otos won't appreciate the higher kh/ph needed for Sulas unless I'm wrong? It needs to be a nice little Eco system cause in my head like 300L or so with this large tank should be enough for shrimp and small otos to just think they're chillin in a river somewhere. Hopefully the otos get comfortable enough that they breed, tricky keeping a low tds with the high tech planted tank. I lost a few to start but from what I've heard this is just common luck with the way they are caught and handled in the industry. Still sucks. The rest are loving life, Any thoughts? Cheers
