Hi
i have a 29 gallon tank and my ph is about 8.2 from tap and maybe a little lower around 8.0 in my tank. I currently have
2 rosy barbs
1 zebra danio
2 angelfish
2 small tetras
1 platy
2 frogs

can i add these shrimp without significant fear of my barbs(i am guessing fully grown about 2 inch body) or my half dollar(body) size angelfish.

The 2 small tetras, platy, and 2 frogs are owned by my brother but i cant seem to convince him to buy a tank to put them in so for the moment atleast they reside in my tank.

I have had my tank running for almost a year and my water has been at this same quite high ph and all my fish seem rather healthy i only had a mild case of ick a while back and my two dwarf gouramis both died of the same disease so i am guessing that the ph isnt that important? Should i look into fish that are more likely to flourish in the higher ph, modify my ph, or ignore it all together.
