I'm thinking about setting up my 10 to breed either ghost shrimp or cherry shrimp, whichever is easiest to breed and tastiest for a Figure 8 puffer.
Any suggestions?

Oh and I love your tank set up from day 1, pretty bad buttocks.

Definitely NOT ghost, they need brackish water for the larvae to grow. Cherries breed like rabbits.

Co2 setup so far (still need solenoid and needle valve)

7lb co2 tank... Image

My 10 is brackish, I had my figure 8 in it as I set up his 20 long tank, it has an SG of about 1.004 or 1.005 its right in there somewhere.
