Shrimp And Endlers

[fish.com1]

Hi everyone,

In my 35 litre i am hopefully going to be having some endlers livebearers and some snowball shrimp. I was wondering if endlers need mature tanks? If so how long before i can introduce them to my tank? I am letting the tank mature for a month before i add the shrimp, and the filter for the tank is fully matured after running in my other tank for 2 months. I set up the 35 litre with everything bar the filter last saturday to give the plants time to grow and to let the tank mature. How long before i can add the endlers?

I am hoping to breed the shrimp and the endlers too so how many endlers would be a good number to start with for a 35 litre with a ratio of 1 male to every 2 females?
And does it matter which I introduce into the tank first?

Thanks everyone.

as long as tank is cycled then u can add the fish however u like.

Sorry i haven't explained what i have done well enough. my fault. I put the filter for the 35 litre tank in my other mature tank so it can "clone" and build up all the good bacteria.; I did this at the start of december so it is now 3 months mature and good to go. Meanwhile last weekend i set up the 35l tank to give the plants time to grow etc. So i didn't do a fishless cycle so the tank isn't cycled but the filter is.

So considering the filter is 3 months mature but the tank is only a week old and not mature should i be ok to next weekend put the mature filter in the 35l tank(if all water parameters are good) and then add the endlers?
