i am currently cycling a 55 gallon tank which currently only has two pieces of driftwood, a lot of Rotala Indica, a small portion of java moss, anubias nana, pygmy chain sword, hygrophila, and pond snails who's current population is relatively small since no food has been added. this tank will be mostly a red cherry shrimp tank and i also plan on adding malaysian trumpet snails once the plants have established strong roots...so finally the question, i would like more inhabitants in the long run but the shrimp will be the main focus so what are the best tank mates for them besides otos (they will be added later on as well)...fish, shrimp, whatever..keep in mind the cherry fry's safety is a big factor in this decision.
any input appreciated
