Blue Lobster An Ghost Shrimp?

[kniesh]

I recently purchased some Ghost Shrimp and a Blue Lobster for a tank I have spare. There are plenty of hiding spaces but are the shrimp eventually gonna become a snack? I did ask b4 I bought them, he said no, but I dont really trust this L.F.S.

I would suspect that they will. Lobsters, crabs and crayfish will usually kill/eat anything they can get their claws on. Shrimp may be less likely to get caught than fish though.

I keep a blue lobster on his own but I would imagine you shrips are simply on death row...

Blue lobster...search it out here and you'll see lots of posts. Clear water, blue death. SH

Ghost shrimp = crunchy snack.

Not only that, but I know many kinds of shrimp carry diseases that are fatal to crayfish, you don't want to mix the two, and you don't want your blue crayfish eating a shrimp.

Thx, the only tank I have available now would not be heated, I'm sure I read somewhere that this would be ok, If not my angels in the big tank, or my frog will definatley eat them wont they, the angels are quite large, but there are lots of hiding spots. Which tank would be best out of the other 2 in my signature and the cold water one? Thx in advance.

I've never had ghost shrimp make it very long regardless of what I've had them with. As for the non heated tank, crayfish don't need any heat at all, and can handle temps as low as 55 or lower.
