Does anyone have a coldwater tank?
I have a 70l tank that I am planning on running as a coldwater system with white cloud minnows and maybe some red cherry shrimp.
So firstly, do I need to have a live plant in there for the shrimp? Iv read that Asian Ambulia is good for the conditions I will have, but also that keeping plants alive is much harder than keeping fish alive
Also, how many minnows shall i get? Not going to put fish in for at least 2 months to get it well cycled but the shop said that I can put 10-15 in 70l, which seems like a lot (even tho they are small).
Or would it be better to not bother with shrimp and plants, and just stick with the minnows?
TIA
