Stocking Aquafarm

[guppy2002]

I've seen this really cool thing called the Aquafarm, and I'm almost sure I am getting it for Christmas. heres a link: https/www.youtube.com/watch?v=PskE16URt9E#t=0  (sorry if it does not work)
it looks really cool. I've noticed that it seems ideal for bettas, but I was wondering if I could put some other stuff in there, since I already have 2 bettas. I was thinking of shrimp, african dwarf frogs, and snails. the aquafarm is 3 gallons, so I know that any other fish wouldnt be so happy in there. so If i got shrimps, what kind should I get? can they go with the frogs? I thought It would be kinda cool to have like 2 ghost shrimp, 2 dwarf frogs, and a snail. would this work?

Looks ok, but have a few questions.
 
Where's the filter media for the bacteria? sponge, ceramic media etc
Can you fit a heater in that tank?
Lighting?
Live plants inside the tank possible?
 
If no filter media available then means frequent daily water changes.
Betta needs a heater to keep temp regular at 78 to 80F.
Lighting is not essential but IMO better for it.
 
3 Gallons is a small tank for a betta really, would not keep a betta in anything less that 5 gals absolute minimum, preferably 10 gals.
 
EDIT - forgot to mention, shrimps would be ok but still need the above, filter and heating at least, also shrimps need s to go in an established tank.
 
Would not risk ADF with shrimps.

I have a heater. did you watch the video? there is a filter, thats what sucks waste up into the plants. and just to make it clear, I am not getting another betta.

Yes I watched the video.

It's the pump that sucks the water. Did not see any filter media at all.

And yes, read you already have 2 Bettas and you plan to have shrimps or adf.

As mentioned already, shrimps need an established tank so therefore you need a filter, hence why was asking if that has a filter or not. Was hoping you may have done research into this aqua farm product as all I know is from that video.

And would not mix adf with shrimps as adf may eat the shrimps, yes there are exceptions but no guarantees.

Hope that helps.

ok, thanks. could adfs be in there alone? if so, how many?
