It consists of:

Otocinclus Catfish


Ghost Shrimp and Java Moss


My goal is to add Orange Bee Shrimp to this set-up someday. Anyone keep shrimp, freshwater or saltwater? Or used to? If so, please feel free to post to this thread. I'd love to keep in contact with a fellow shrimp enthusiast.

Also, anyone here keep catfish? Or used to? And if so, what has your experience been like with them? For me, Otocincluses, or as they are more commonly known "Otos", are very hardy fish and relatively easy to care for.

Hello Sal. Love the nano.
I have kept lots of different fw and sw shrimp.My favorite sw shrimps are Emporer, sexy shrimp, and I had one that was super unusual but the name escapes me. He had all these weird things on his head that he could move around, like fingers.Fw I have kept cherries, crs, cbs, tigers, but my favorites are the fan shrimps. They are all awesome.I have kept otos, and tried to keep zebra otos but was sent a bad batch that were sick. 17 of them, I was supposed to split with someone. I like corydoras Habrosus, and have kept Hara jerdoni{mini moth catfish}, and love the loaches and gobies too.. I also had a peckoltia sp swerg that was really a neat fish.In nanos I would stick with the small fish like you have. Most catfish get huge. They love zucchini, partially blanched. I just read a big thread last night on a guy who has successfully bred otos. I think he was in Sweden or?
