Breeding in a pickle Jar

[Pomatomus]

Not sure about the difficulty of breeding shrimp, but I saw a store in chinatown that just had them breeding in a 10 gallon with java moss. Cherries are smaller than ghost shrimp but they might work too. I have the danios in a 10 at home. They need a bit of room to swim but about 3 could do well. They only grow to 2cm.

Guppys FTW!!! im breeding guppys in a 3 liter tank with a sponge filter they stay at about an inch long.

how much do the danios cost.... i might just run to pets smart or something get some plants, put the fish in there and let them go

If you have to use a pickle jar i would go for shrimps (red cherry or crystal red). they will breed for sure.
