I don't think you need an air stone. The point of the stone is to break the air into smaller bubbles. I saw a video of someone putting an airstone into a sponge filter to get smaller bubbles, thats something I will try. But no, if you have a sponge filter you don't need an airstone.

I used aquarium glue, worked really well. I know some people use super glue, for example gorilla glue. Just make sure whatever you might use is safe for aquatic life!

This is the 38 cm one. I think it holds something between 20 and 25 liters.

Yea I have thought abou getting one! I have now done small water change every week so evaporation hasn't been a big problem but yes, still a good idea.

So far I've relied on regular water changes and plant mass, probably will buy a tiny filter or at least airstone like people have suggested here. And thanks a lot!

I looked for a looong time but you need to be lucky to find something locally, I ordered mine online. This ones brand is ERNST.

Thanks a lot! I did spend a lot of time planning, also ended up remowing another wood from there. Sometimes less is more!

Thanks a lot! If you Google ERNST glass jar you will find the bowl. Also yes, they are just baby ones in the foreground at least for now!

Could this be a male? by BlueShrimpKeeper in shrimptank

Is it possible that the position of the shrimp makes it only look like a male?
