One of the best small pets for your fishbowl is shrimp! Have you heard of red cherry shrimp? These shrimp do best in a 10-gallon tank; keeping the water conditions stable is key to their survival.
These shrimp are relatively easy to keep with 20 percent water changes monthly, as long as you keep the temperature and pH level stable.
Fun Fact: You can also keep fish in their tank, but make sure the fish are small, because bigger fish will snack on the shrimp. Good tank mates are guppies, tetras, and smaller barbs.
Now that we've introduced one shrimp species for your small fishbowl, let's laugh at some prawn puns!
