I have a couple of racks set up for my shrimps tanks. I know Ron and a couple of shrimp guy in calgary also have done the same.

2 x 23G in the middle and 3 x 10G on the bottom

I also started a 2nd rack; 33" x 14" with 20G long tanks on the top 3 levels

The 18" are fine but just leave some pack behind the rack if you plan on having HOB filters. If you have the space I would recommend investing in the more heavy duty racks from Home depot or Rona. I believe they are a bit bigger, 54-60" wide and 24" but a lot more studier! I know I would have done that route for my first one if i had to do it again.

23G? Where did you get them made? Gotta be a custom job to fit that stand....

I saw these at my local Lowes. They are small but may serve the purpose.

I believe Greg in Regina breeds this fish.

I currently have a similar set up in progress. Rather than using ferts I simply use old aquarium water to keep things moist
