What temperature do you keep a shrimp tank at?

I’m setting up a 15 gallon fluval flex in a few weeks and it’s gonna be a shrimp tank. I will add seeded media and mystery snails to build waste to build up the beneficial bacteria. I will then get shrimp after a few weeks. After a month or 2 I would like to add some Pygmy cories. After that I will add some cpds if I can find them. So my question is, what temperature should I keep the tank at? I was thinking 75 F? It would not be too hot for the shrimp and not too cold for the snails and shrimp. What do you keep your shrimp tank temperature at?

I keep mine at 76-78 F.

My shrimp and snails are happy in that range.

Ok. I heard shrimp like it colder? Is 75 ok for the fish?

Yes, that temperature would be OK for both Pygmy Corydoras and CPD.

Here are both of their SF profiles:

Corydoras pygmaeus – Pygmy Cory — Seriously Fish
