What To Do With A 1 Gallon Tank

Nice syno lol
Well I have four ghost shrimp and a very small apple snail in there for now. Whenever they get to big I do plan on moving them to my big tank yes.

It's all going good still except the snail up and died early on. The shrimp seem to like it except the big one ate two of the smaller ones so I just have the two in there now.

In my 1.5 gallon I have 3 male endlers. However it may be used as a fry tank If I think they're too active for it.

Yeah snails and shrimp would be a good idea. I don't think there are in fish that could go in it.

Once your 37g has cycled and moved all your shrimp and snail in there you could make your 1g into brackish or even marine to hatch brine shrimp eggs. Would be good to watch the process on everything that happens and pretty exciting. There are people selling over a 1000 eggs on ebay for £2.50 + normally free postage, 99% chance on hatching them as they say.

Well all's goin good with this tank except for algae It doesn't bother me to much but it's not pretty. The biggest shrimp has been white for over a week now. He molted yesterday but is still white so I figure he'll die soon. I hope to get cherry shrimp whenever possible. Will these take care of the algae because the ghosties sure don't. Or can I keep an Otto in here to? And I've thought about moving my 4 platy fry into here because it's bigger(If only slightly) then the breeders net they currently live in, and I've heard they grow bigger if in a bigger environment. But this tank doesn't have a heater so would it be worth the risk (Would the shrimp hurt them)?

no Otos, they should be kept in groups.
