I know from my previous post that Bamboo is non-toxic to bettas but would it pose a problem with ghost shrimp? Also how many Ghost Shrimp could I put in m 3 gallon bowl and could I put sea shells in there or would that severely affect my pH? Also is it possible to add maybe a rosey minnow or two?

Thanks!

I wouldn't put roseys in a 3 gallon since they prefer to be in groups and a 3 gallon isn't large enough.

I don't think bamboo would be harmful to shrimp and I don't think shells would hurt too bad. They might raise your pH a little, but if shrimp are anything like snails, the calcium is actually good for their shells (that's pure speculation, though).
