I'm planning two shrimp tanks: the two tanks are identical, in shape and size, (52 litres) so I thought it'd be interesting to set them up near to each other, one with a population of crystal red shrimps and the other with a population of sexy shrimps.
For the crystal red shrimps I wanted to set up a dirt tank, with a nice carpet of dwarf hair grass, a submersed plant (still need to think about which) and pothos draped over the side. I was also thinking about a dieffenbachia growing out of the water. I had originally thought of lucky bamboo, but then had this idea of this big "tree" growing up and out of the water.
Is it a silly idea? Would it grow too big? Any suggestions for another plant if the idea is indeed silly?
Any suggestions, comments and/or critique of the idea is welcome.
For the moment it's just a wild thought.
