Ghost Shrimps & Fins

[lizard]

Do ghost shrimp munch the fins of the fishies? My fish look as if their fins have been munched on. I have two platies, two ghost shrimp, and a pleco in the tank.

Thanks!

I dont think so it sounds like your fish may be headed for a trip to the doctors! Maybe someone else could say better but I think Platies wouldn't take that kinda stuff from a ghost shrimp.

If the ghost shrimp are around a inch and a half to two they may snap out a claw and snip fins now and then.
