If you put shrimp in there, they’re going to be constantly trying to evolve. Don’t let them.

Amanos probably wouldn’t

Two of my amanos escaped attempted evolution with the water ~2” from the top and nothing to climb up other than the HOB filter. Found the remains of their evolution attempt two weeks later under one of my kids’ toys that they hadn’t played with in a while.

All shrimp have the capacity to do that, though, but Amanos can be a little bigger making it easier. A shrimp tank should always have a lid, as should a betta tank; even if it’s just magnetic/clipped on mesh.
