Hello All

I'm currently cycling a new 10 litre planted tank with a sand bottom and I was hoping that you guys could give me some suggestions of what you would put in there.

Regards
Tom

it would be good for a mini dutch style. but that's up to you lol, in a tank this size I would really go for the golden rule since its perfect for this

Ha, I'm glad you asked because I don't know that term either!
The tank looks beautiful by the way! Excellent job!
Endlers are fun teeny fish.

Some shrimp would be lovely in there :)
 
Are there any small fish that would be able to go into this tank as although I like shrimp I would like to see what fish could go in there.

Thanks Tom
 
I personally wouldn't put any fish in it but a betta would be doable. I'm not sure what kind of shrimp to suggest, sorry. If you can post your pH and water hardness someone may be able to help better :)
 
Thanks for your help the water quality readings are:

PH 8
Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 0
Chlorine 0
K hardness 10
G hardness 16
Temperature 25.5
 
Well that sort of limits it with a PH that high, shrimp are out so are most micro fish like Galaxy Rasboras.
 
The strip test says 8 but the API Master kit says 7.6 so I would imagine it's closer to 7.8PH.

what's a good ph to have?
 
You could set it up to be a planted tank with Cherry Shrimp, although you'd need a far bigger tank in the future because they breed like crazy in the right conditions. If you were to do this you'd need to wait a few weeks for the tank to cycle and make sure that you have hiding places (which in your case the plants will be enough)
 
I mentioned Endlers livebearers up there [emoji1369] and those are perfect parameters for them
