Habitat
There ! In the Pacific Ocean ! And the Atlantic ! And the Indian ! The habitat of shrimp is really quite an intriguing subject to learn about ! Almost all the time , shrimp are found at the bottom of their habitat . They can be found in nearly any water region at all ! Most often , shrimp live near the land . They are especially plentiful in warm areas , so I doubt you would find many of these under-sea creatures near Antarctica . Some shrimp spend the day at the bottom of their habitat and the night higher up . Lots of them journey from deep to shallow waters seasonally .

Go Fish!
I had a ton of fun during the cycle , Go Fish , budgeting and shopping . My tank was a 20 - gallon tank .I needed 5.74 gallons of water . I chose 2 cherry barbs and 1 silver molly . A cherry barb is red on its stomach and fins with white on its sides . It also has a dotted black line through the middle. Silver mollies , like their name says , are silver , majestic , friendly , and sparkle all over . My tank includes a blue stone castle , coral garden rock , an aqua bloom blue plant , and a blue ribbon stone bridge , and blue gravel . As you can probably tell , I had a blue theme . In total , I spent $123.95 .
