Possible Possibility?

[fifefish]

im wondering if its possible to keep a small sort of shrimp in my tank, would there be an compatibility issues with these:
-Tetra:2 Congos,5 Glowlights,5 Neon,4 Red eye
-Danio: 1 Zebra,3 Leopard
-Rasbora: 5 harlequin
-Barb: 5 Tiger
-Gourami: Opaline,
-Loach: 1 Pakistani(Yoyo)
-Livebearer: 8 Guppies
-Snails: 3 Ivory Apple
-Plec: 1 Common Plec

The Gourami, yoyo loach and common plec would be my issues and possibly the tiger barbs. The common plec will try to eat the snails when it reaches 12-14" and certainly hoover up shrimp at 6-8", yoyo loach will probably try and eat the snails if the apples are small enough and the loach is full size however apple snails grow 3"+ so should be safe after 2"+. With a very complex cave system and lots of plant cover (may have issues depending on species of apple snails some are ravenous herbivores) you could keep them with amano's and at the extreme maybe red cherries but I would think they would eventually all become a buffet as the bottom feeders get larger. Also you have quite a few algae eaters in there so make sure to feed the snails aswell as the fish.

if u really want shrimp, get flower shrimp or bamboo, they grow up to about 7"-8"

Agree'd with milkton;
Also, what about amanos? They're one of the most successful's, excluding woods.
