I need to set up a new tank and fast. on friday I am leaving for 3 weeks and will be doing a small water change, as well as setting up a new tank to hold my mis behaving shrimp and the snails that may be munching on my corals. I need to set it up quick, and was wondering if tap water would be okay? I know its a bad source, but my main tank was set up using tap water and its doing fine, maybe some excess algae, but still fine. its either that or spring water. oh, and tank is 5 gallons, is that okay to use for a tank for 2 bumble bee snails, and a pepermint shrimp, along w/ a cleaner shrimp? I will also have a powerhead and a few pounds of LR in it.
