I have recently become very interested in shrimp and I want to see everyone's setup! Upload some pictures of the setup and the type of shrimp your keeping.

Ive had cherry shrimp in the past but just recently bought some blue bolts. Its my first time keeping caridina shrimp so I'm pretty nervous so hopefully all goes well. I find that the shrimp are congregating in the corner and I don't know why, anyone have any suggestions?

Im using fluval stratum and I had the tank cycling for 3 weeks with seeded sponge filters, plants, and driftwood. The acclimation process has gone great and no deaths!

Here's my 20 gallon shrimp tank.  The tank belonged to my father and is older than I am hence the silver trim.  It's still holding up after all these years but I did have to reseal it a few years ago.

Livestock
- Sulawesi Malawa and Blue Carbon Rili shrimp
- Nerite snails. 

Plants
- I had water wisteria in the back left corner but just swapped it out for Taiwan lilies.
- Moss balls
- Weeping moss
- Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides
- Lindernia india,
- Marsilea hirsuta
- I have about six/seven species of buce
- Three type of anubias, gigantean, golden and pinto

Low maintenance, high light, liquid ferts and liquid CO2.  Substrate is Netlea soil.
