Simultaneously: might be converting my 5.5 gallon to a shrimp-exclusive tank soon... mostly so I can breed them.

I'm very excited about this because I love shrimp SO MUCH but also very nervous because what if I fuck it up

im sincerely fascinated by the world of hobby shrimp breeding

If you fuck up you do better next time!

niangniang : It turns out it's a whole thing! The REALLY fancy people set up tanks that don't need filters at all, they're entirely self sustaining planted biomes

I'm not THAT fancy but my tank is partially planted and I am VERY eager to raise baby shrimp

that sounds hella cool
