Hi Everyone!
Im new to the aquarium hobby, but im quickly becoming obsessed. I currently have a nano shrimp tank with 5 cherry shrimp, and a 10 gallon with 3 ADFs. Someday I would love to have bigger tanks and get into breeding. Im mostly interested in unique aquarium creatures like shrimps and frogs but I can see myself getting more into fish too. Im also an artist, and if I had the money I swear I would aquascape like nobodys business. Happy to have found this forum!

The frogies are so cuteeeee I owned a few a while ago but they passed a few months ago. Good to see new people on the forum too!
 
Welcome!

You can consider crabs in future. They are interesting but they need half land and half water.
For fully aquatic crab which doesn't require land, you can try the Panther crab.

 
Hello, and welcome. Really liking the cherry shrimp scape.

Hi to you in Portland, USA, from Peterlee, UK.
2 funny stories .........
I bought a couple of vampire crabs for my tank and my 4 year old grand-daughter loved them. In fact when she went to nursery she told all her classmates and teachers that her grandad has crabs.
Then, this is a bit sad really, my wife who is suffering cognitive ability problems came to the aquarist with me a couple of weeks ago where I went to get some more green neon tetras. While she waited for me, she was looking in all the tanks. She shouted me over to one tank and said "look, these fish have legs".
I don't know what species of frog they were but they looked nothing like fish.
Welcome to the forum.
