Got my 2 gallon jar set up! I'm going to give it at least a month or so to establish and fill in with plants, and then who should I add? So far I'm thinking a couple of cherry shrimp and some scuds, and maybe a few bladder snails. Is there anyone else I could add in here, like more microfauna that might be happy? I loooove snails and all other critters, but I don't want anyone to be crowded, and I'm hoping to keep it as low/no maintenance as possible. I do have a 5 gallon with some shrimp and bladder snails that I can use as a slight overflow tank if my creatures end up breeding a bunch, but hoping to keep things somewhat contained if possible.

    I’d consider aquatic isopods. Some kinds might nibble your plants though. They also wouldn’t use the higher up open space, but they’re also pretty silly and cute little guys.
