Molted Shrimp

[Guppyluver]

When say a ghost shrimp molts and reveals its soft body, will all fish be eager to have a taste? Or will certain fish not be tempted to take a bite. (eg. certain tetras, etc)

Also will certain plants be able to provide as shelter for molted shrimp?

It depends on what fish you have, if they dont normally bother it it should be fine when it molts, ghosts are quite hardy, any plants, wood or decor will be fine as a safe place when it molts.

Same goes for Cherry Red shrimp, Amano, etc?

ps. I have mainly black skirt tetras, dwarf platy, and neon tetras. Along with an ADF.
