How Many Crystal Red Shrimp in a 29-Gallon Tank?
In a 29-gallon tank, plan on about 1–2 Crystal Red Shrimp, leaving room for tankmates and filtration headroom.
Why
Stocking is driven by adult size and waste output, not just fish count. Crystal Red Shrimp reaches about 1" with a light bioload, and needs 68–76°F water at pH 6–6.8. Always cycle the tank and test water before adding livestock.
