Although we had the shimp in a 10 gal, we were running a makeshift sump for it. As to not disturb the shimp, (or suck them into the filters) I was using small airline hose to sphion from the tank. 6 of these were sphioning, and I used a 2 litre pop bottle with thousands of tiny holes in it to surround the hoses. In the sump we were running 2 Aqua 500s in 25 gals. water, and changing 15% per week. This kept the levels in the 10 gal. perfect, or so we thought. Since few of anyone in the world has ever had success, we will probably wait until things slow down before trying again. But it was fun to try.
