Ideas for 10 gal

You could stick with anubias, ferns and moss for low light low maintenance set ups... and grab a moss wall kit from some cool people!

Ooh, or multifaciatus shellies would be perfect for a 10g if you don't want to go the plant route...

I liked these when i saw them at your house. just would change the bottom from gravel to sand, but would be an easy convert (i always love cichlids)

I agree a planted shrimp tank with perhaps some teeny nano fish. Ruby tetras always look awesome...or even some embers

I agree. Shrimp and plants would be low maintenence and a fun new direction for you. Plus it'll be easy to get red cherry shrimp and plants...I know a few people would be happy to help! Lol

but plants/shrimp would get me experience with a new tank route. once i get the right plants due to my past non-success with plants haha probably was just lighting. but yes very low maintenance once its up and going (like suicune added)

oh decisions decisions....

I know some cool folks that would be happy to get you a starter colony of cherries...

fill the tank with plants and shrimp and you have a phenomenon nano tank.

Red Cherry Shrimp first or Malawa are the easiest... if your tank is established anyway

Tank has been up and running for maybe 6 months, so it is established. Just need something to put in it now and fill it out. But shrimp are a possibility

a heavily planted shrimp tank then forget about water change and just topping off every now and then!

And planted best of both worlds

I recently had a 10 gallon open up when I moved my juvenile JD out of it. Now I have no clue what to do with the tank. It is a small space to work with, so I was possibly going to make it a breeder. Or a plant tank since I do little with live plants right now.

I have a few different types of tetras I could try breeding (black skirts, lamp eyes or beunos aries). I have a least 4 of each type right now. Or i could get something different to try.

Any ideas?
