A shrimp or two might be kind of neat scooting around in the
one-gallon.



Agreed! Hope that works. Any loaches in the tank that loses shrimp? I've
heard tell that some loaches will eat them.

No loaches. There are several possible culprits (see list), but I
think Fundies are most likely. The SAEs are the biggest fish in the
tank and they seem fairly omnivorous, but they tend towards being
scavengers.

Peacock Gudgeon (9)
Fundulopanchax scheeli (3)
Red-Eyed Tetra (1)
Siamese Algae Eater (3)
Otocinclus Catfish (3)
Leopard Danio (1)
