Hi! I'm Kevin, in Texas! I'm an avid birdwatcher who is wanting to get into keeping a aquarium as well....
I have been looking into getting a fresh water shrimp tank and was hoping y'all can help me out!
Which brings me to a few questions...
Are questions about freshwater excepted here and if so is there a particular section?

Welcome to the community Kevin and fellow Texan. I haven't seen an area specifically or freshwater since these forums are primarily focused on saltwater

welcome this is a saltwater forum but maybe someone who has kept fresh can answer all your questions although i don't think they is a dedicated fresh water sub forum on here to ask ur questions

Welcome to Reef2Reef!

Discussing freshwater is kind of frowned on by many members here, but there are a few that also keep freshwater tanks and may be able to help. Or you could just go saltwater ;)

Good luck!

Theres no dedicated sub here but check out reddit, they have some good info over there about shrimp tanks.

You can private message me about freshwater. I keep 2x 60 gallon tanks.

And greetings from a fellow Texan!

Hi and welcome.
I used to keep a planted tank and there was a specific forum for shrimp keepers. Hope it helps!

Hope it’s OK for me to redirect someone to a different forum.

There are freshwater persons here including myself who owned an LFS
What questions do you have?

 

[vetteguy53081]

These freshwater enthusiasts are our potential future reefers. We need to stop blowing them away and give them an opportunity to get the help they need. I can’t count the number of members with reef tanks who started with freshwater tanks and even their first fish- a goldfish from a fair
