by the way, are these micros in the extinct list?

Boraras perfer still or slow moving water. Good planted tank is also good for them so they can hide. I am keeping them in none filter setup small tank, feed them with dry food. Boraras brigittae is red, Boraras merah also reddish orange. Moss is good as it provide some green and it easy to keep also.

thinking of having a mini tank in the office with lotsa moss and these fishes...

Please ensure there is enough room for them to swim. If possible try have plant also.

Yes, but if do not put too many else it become a boraras tank. haha

also ensure the water flow current is not strong. I assume is not since you are keeping shrimp

Are you showing your setup to me here? Thanks

Also worry it may eat shrimplets..

Do you think the boraras will eat the worm? i not that sure.
Maybe you want catch some those worm and feed to the boraras. Are they planaria ?
