what kind of shrimps is suitable for ecosphere

tangmulong4488 · 02-03-2008, 02:49 AM

i doing a project.

ecosphere, a self sustainable, seal environment, no water change, no feeding.

honestly, i know nothing about shrimps.

i need to know which shrimp is hardy, nice, cheap, remain small, and nt fussy abt food, can withstand wide range of water parameters.

any expert care to share yr rich knowledge about shrimps

Halocaridina rubra

Just to let you know that the shrimp is straving to death slowly in the ecosphere though as the nutrients are just barely keeping it alive.

Plastic shrimp, no feeding is needed, but cannot breed though.

i'm not really into ecospheres, but if you wish to do something like this, should have lots of moss (and only a few shrimps) so that the shrimp have something to feed from it.

i suppose u need a strong filter with matured BBs and a low room temp.
