Hello, all! I would like to set up a 2 gal. tank for some cherry shrimp, but have a couple of questions.

I know they need a filter, but do they like a lot of water movement or just a little like a betta?

Also, how often do they need partial water changes? And do you vacuum the gravel like you do with fish?

One more - how many in a 2 gal. unit?

Thanks in advance for any and all help!
 
little water movement is best however as long as there isn't a ery strong current they should be happy. I do a 305 water change every 3 days in my tank. They lve plants especially floating ones as it helps diffuse the light which shrimp don't particularly like
