Couple Of Cherry Shrimp Questions

[lee_essex]

Hello.
 
I currently have a tropical 120L community tank + 2 red crabs, planted with sand & 2 large rocks with holes to hide.
 
1. Will the crabs get along with the shrimp ?
 
2. How many shrimp would you advise, I was thinking 5 - 8 ?
 
3. Will they be ok feeding on pellets & flake scraps
 
Thanks

I think they would eat the heck out of them!

Will they catch them tho ?

crabs are notorious for just eating anything they can find.  Fish, or other inverts.  They all sleep sometime.
