how about small rainbows, they have more personality than tetras in my opinion. i have just got a few of these and think they are great, bet they would look excerlent as a big shoal http://www.rva.ne.jp/cogata/pseudomugil_furcatus.htm

i dont count my small shrimp in the bioload count but should the larger shrimps such as the bamboo or the giant african filter shrimp count in the bio load if so then how much should i account for, should it be the same as fish?

i agree wood or bamboo shrimp (sometimes called rock shrimp) would be good ,aswell as african filter shrimp or armoured shrimp its also called would be good, shrimps require plenty of hiding places though

On some website reviews i have seen that it comes with a heater in the filter, is that true since when i have seen it in the shops i cant find it, and if there is one can you adjust the temp

its a bit expensive for shrimp on there though

my two hill stream loaches are doing great ,they look really healthy and are eating the algae on the back of my tank. they are great fish to watch and are quite lively

i only wanted to know if there was a product that could slow the growth of algae to make it more easily managable .i never said i wanted to kill it. there was no help in your message and i dont think there is such a need for that sarcasm

does anyone know of a product that controls algae without hurting shrimps as i have heard that it can be damaging to their shells

quite a good sounding tank but 1 guppy on its own wont be very happy at least get a pair. Kulhi loachs do better in groups but a pair is fine 2 in a 30 gallon would be fine, i would go with 2 guppys 2 kuhli loachs 2 rams 6 tetras 2-3 halfbeaks
