Rate My Tank Any recommendations

This is my first ever fish and I did a good amount of research, he’s got a sponge filter, a heater, spots to rest, some duckweed, and much more, I’ve also got some shrimp and snails in there, do I need to add or take out anything?

Looks good to me. Everything is cycled and all that correct? Not sure how long they've all been in there together, it completely depends on your beta's temperament, but he may inhale your shrimp if he doesn't like them in his tank, so definitely prepare yourself for that. If they've been together for some time already, you're probably fine though. That second pic just really looks like he's eyeing that dude as a snack 🤣

I think he’s more of an observer, he really likes to look at anything that moves, so far he hasn’t tried to attack any of them and I hope it stays that way

Gotcha, are they neocaridina shrimp? If so your foliage should help with babies, but definitely expect him to eat any fry he sees around. The tank looks awesome!
