Shrimp Tank?

[Robot_Rooster]

I have a Spare 11 litre tank would that be suitable enough for some shrimp?

also if it is/ even if it isnt ill get it a bigger tank would i need a filter? they don't seem to be very messy

Thanks in Advance

Well that's approx 2 gallons so 2 or 3 Amano or Cherry shrimp should be fine in there. Shrimp can be sensetive and would need a mature tank to really thrive . A small sponge or HOB filter would be fine for them. Just cycle it in an existing tank first.

They do like moss, so a small piece of bogwood tied with plenty of java moss would be great for them . Perhaps also a mossball or two as well. You could make a really nice planted nano setup for them
