Hello, I have a 75 gal tank that has acidic water (usually around 6.5-7) and I have holey rock in it to buffer PH and KH as my tap is around 6.6 PH. The tank has been stable for months and the only death there was with a Gourami that got stuck in the rockwork and died several weeks ago. I have had Ghost shrimp there for a while and they are all fine. The tank also has a surplus of algae growth. The tank is divided by a plastic divider. I have a small South American Lungfish (Lepidosiren Paradoxa), 2 Bichirs (Senegalus and Delhezi) 2 Pictus Catfish, 6 Silver Dollars and 2 Melon Barbs on one side. On the other side, I have the Ghost Shrimp along with several small Plecos (L333) and several Corydoras catfish as well as a bunch of Molly fry and juveniles. Will this work with Cherry Shrimp or not?
 
there are big fish in there that will eat small shrimp
especially the bottom feeders
so i'd say get a little seperation box/net and raise a shrimp colony there

I know, I do that already. I have a divider that the large fish can't go through and I have raised many small fish to grow to sellable size in there. My question is more, can the water parameters, and such things work? The monster fish have no access to the other side of the divider so I am not concerned with the SAL or Bichirs eating them.
