Questions For New Tank

[turtlegirl]

I have a 10L I want to use as my "planted" tank. I am thinking I want a couple oto's in it to keep the algae down, I'm not sure of any others I can keep in this size tank? Or is this going to be too much work and I should just grow plants in there?

id say that its a little small for oto's alone. they like to be in groups of 5+ although it would make a great shrimp tank and they'll keep the algae down to

Too small imo

Okay. Which shrimp would you recommend?

Red Cherry Shrimp would be a good first Shrimp as they are fairly forgiving.

Failing this, Zebra Nerite Snails are very good at eating algae.

Ghost shrimp, they are cheep and just as effective as other species IME.
