So I just got 4 baby ADFs (African Dwarf Frogs, NOT CLAWED) in my planted 15g, and I can already tell that feeding them is going to cause some mess -- I'm using frozen blood worm cubes, and those get everywhere.
I don't want to have to pick individual worms out of the substrate/gravel vacuum every time, do you all have any suggestions of some compatible tank mates that will help clean up? Would normal shrimp do the job or would blood worms be bad for them?
I'd also love any suggestions on invertebrates/fish that will eat biofilm on wood, mine doesn't seem to be going away as fast as I'd like. Of course, any algae eating is an added bonus!
Bonus question, do Amano Shrimp need 6 to be comfortable/not stressed enough to eat and feel normal? Also, I know eggs won't hatch in freshwater, but will the females lay them anyways?
Thanks in advance!
