Number of Yamato shrimps to clear excessive food

Hi,

I have a 3ft tank with 10+ cories....How many yamatos are enough to clear up the excess food???

Hi. Firstly, welcome to AQ. Secondly, please avoid using impropering spellings/SMS shortforms. It makes reading difficult.

Anyway, the idea of using Yamato shrimps to clear excessive food should be corrected. In the first place, you should have fed appropriately (i.e. less).

In the first place, you should have feed apprpriately (i.e. less).

I Agree, try t adjust the amount of food

You got a point...Looks like i got to feed lesser...Although yamatos look very cute at work

I think they are preferred to be picking at algae, rather than the so-called leftovers.

Anyway, try not to use SMS language (unnecessary shortforms and purposeful mis-spellings) while posting. It makes reading your post difficult and not everyone will understand what you are trying to say. Thanks

I squash all the pest snail in my tank and prepair to suck them out when i change the water the next day and i found all my yamatos feasting on them...
