I thought I'd share some pics of the 2 tanks I have that are actually stocked with various freshwater shrimp, and some pics of the shrimp too naturally. 
First up, my 60 gallon palludarium. Water volume is obviously much lower than this, as I never let it go above half way up the tank as that would flood my terrestrial plants. This was a bit experimental, the substrate consisting of pond compost capped with a mix of quartz gravel and flourite. Then there are the 3 red mangroves growing in there that I wasn't sure would even grow..... lol They are actually doing VERY well, as are all of the plants in there. Livestock consists of 20 Neocaridina davidi var Dream blue, 6 Spixi apple snails, some mahogany trumpet snails and some normal ones (no idea how many, they're left over from when this was a normal planted tank).
Next up is my little 30 litre Dennerle cube. This one houses 10 crystal red shrimp, 10 crystal black shrimp and 9 Thai micro crabs.
We have 4 other tanks too, but of them 3 are works in progress and the 4th is an un-stocked "cull" retirement tank for my other freshwater tanks.
You may have twigged at this point, we kinda love shrimp here. I'll share pics of our other tanks once they're further along (our 50 litre Dennerle Scaper's tank for example is nearly ready, just need to switch the water from soft and acid over to harder with a higher pH suitable for Neocaridina.... lol).

On the plus side, I have one crab who sits right out in the open, filter feeding from the water column and graizing on a marimo covered lava rock, and another that comes out at the front regularly... Everything I've read is that folks rarely see their crabs outside of when they feed, so something must be right about my tank for them., maybe.
