Hi all,
I am after a bit of advice. I have the opportunity to get myself an ADA 60P (tank only). I have been wanting to set up a low-tech shrimp tank for a long time now, but never got around to it. I have had a 125L high-tech tank for a few years now and I am very happy with how the tank is doing at the moment. I was wondering what I would need to get started with shrimp in a 60P.
FILTER.
Will I need one? If so, what kind? All I have is a spare APS 1400lph external filter... which is probably overkill to the point of destroying the shrimp?
LIGHTING.
What kind of lighting do most people use with the 60P? bear in mind this will be a non-Co2 tank so I don't want to overdo it.
HEATER.
Will I need one? Are there any discreet and small ones at a reasonable price?
Any advice is greatly appreciated. I have never kept shrimp before. Cheers,
