Glass Catfish

[Andypalf]

I'm thinking of changing my community tank to predominantly be a home for about 6 glass catfish. My main question is how do the get on with shrimp. I've got 7 mature amano shrimp and lots of cherry shrimp that I want to keep. How do glass catfish go with shrimp...complete no no?

Hi Andypalf

I haven't tried this combination myself but don't think it would be a problem as long as you keep it a freshwater tank. Glass cats are fairly timid and I've never known them to be aggressive toward any of their tankmates.

If your worried about the Glass Catfish beating on the shrimp you need not worry... as an avid Glass Catfish fan, I dont think these dudes could fight their way out of a soggy paper bag to save themselves
