All four otters on our first of four snow days. Tahoe has never seen snow before, he is the one in the back of the video not sure if he wants to step on it or not. Baxter, Ryer, and Shasta are the ones going crazy. We bring in the 2000lbs of snow bucket by bucket in the morning before we put them on exhibit.

Hey!!! Anything to say on a Kuhli loach/red cherry shrimp I’m thinking of? It’s going to be my first fish tank and I’m pretty sure those two are supposed to be good beginner fish??? Like… What tank size would you recommend and how many of them?

Uh oh, I know very little about either of those… But you might want to talk to @justnoodlefishthings. They might be able to help 🙂

Cherry shrimp are food for anything except the tiniest of fish. The loaches will gobble them up in a heartbeat. They aren’t the best beginner critters, either, they can be picky. 

Go with just the loaches, and the largest tank you can get.
