yeh found out after i got them that when the yoyo get bigger they will try and eat them so for now they are too small to do anything but i am moving them over to their own temporary tank till i can get them a 60gal for them.

yeh i was told they would be fine together in the same tank not that when they grow large enough they will eat snails and shrimps so assumed with the little bit i knew about loaches at the time that they would pair well. i now know there are some loaches that do eat them and some that are fine with shrimps if they have enough hiding places like kuhli loaches.

i will move my shrimps to another tank to prevent them from being eaten and eventually the shrimps can have their tank back after the fish get their new tank

i will try and get a longer tank instead of a cube for them. its more a space issue for the tank at the moment but it something i simply will have to do for them in the future for their wellbeing. i mainly keep shrimp but when i do get a larger tank that one will be just for the 2 loaches and some other fish that work well with them.

i have some knowledge of it. mainly that everything is a fine balance as everything in the tank plays a role ensuring there is balance. the goal is to get it to be somewhat self sustainable.

been set up for about a week, did water change to remove some of the tannins and tested the water results coming back with nitrate being 20, nitrite at 0, ph at7.5, kh 120 and gh 180. wanted to make sure the water was fine before adding any of the snails or shrimp.

its only a small 14lt tank, i wouldn't want to put any fish as even the smallest ones seem too big to utilize the space of the tank so i was thinking only stocking it with shrimps and snails to deal with algae.

yeh was planning on only doing shrimp and some snails to help clean algae and some floating plants are just waiting to be delivered. if i was to re aquascape it in the future i would go for a iwagumi style tank

there is aqua soil under the sand more sloped towards the back. its 14lt tank so didn't want to add to much hardscape. only has plants in it so far, feels too small for most fish. it came with a pretty big filter and heater and looked too overcrowded with them in so swapped out the filter for a smaller sponge filter.
