L200 With Cherry Shrimp?

[sandfire]

Has any kept Plecos/Loricariids with Cherry Shrimp?

I am looking to put a L200 highfin (if possibble when I track one down) or simular sized L numbered plec in the planted aquarium but wondered if they would make a meal of the cherry shrimps?

Nah plecs pretty much leave them to it so you should be fine with most plecs , i'd worry more about that sort of size plec uprooting and destroying plants

i agree with jen plecs will be fine with shrimp
its livebeares and barbs that are more agresive

Thanks guys.

I had a L200 highfin which I sold when I converted from fresh to marine, I am kicking myself now. He was so stunning bright canary yellow fish and a beautiful 'shark' dorsal fin...bet I never find another like that

Ended up falling in love with a stunning adult L204, I think its a female looking at the width of the head and smoother body scales.

I never noticed in the shop that her tail fin had been chewed and the fin extensions are missing but hopefully these will grow back.
