Cherry shrimps in a container without airpump

Hi guys,

How long can I put my cherries without air pump in a container ??

Cherries can survive without air pump, so it is ok. But hope your container is not too small for them.

I have 1 cherry & Malayan in a 1L vase with some star moss and snails.. No filter, no air pump, no light (only switch on when I am at home).

They have shelled a few times and both of them are living well for more than 2.5 months already.

As long as you maintain your water parameters and your bioload is not too large you can do without a pump indefinitely. However if you're unsure about either then its safer to keep it as short a period as possible. In order for your cherries to thrive in the long run its best you have at least a sponge filter

They are actually star moss. They are some sort of soil. I am also not sure about that.

You mean feed them? Of course need to feed them with food!

Sorry for the typo.
How many times per week do you feed them?
