delphine Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 I have a planted 5 gallon that currently only has two nerite snails in it. I wanted to add some cherry shrimp but don't want them to multiply exponentially. Is there a fish I can add to control the population and not eat the adults? Or would adding a fish create too much of a bioload for a 5 gallon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 I would personally not keep fish in a 5 gallon but a lot of people do I prefer snails or shrimp in a 5 gallon if your population gets to big you could see if your lfs will buy some 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delphine Posted February 22, 2022 Author Share Posted February 22, 2022 @Coluthat is what I figured. Guess I will just keep it shrimp and snails. Maybe one day I will move them to a 10 gallon, put endlers or guppies in too and just give in to the baby making machines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
