Shrimp Troubles

[lordofthesea]

I have a large community tank with a banjo catfish, some large congo tetras some odessa barbs a pair of large kribs, a 15cm pleco, 2 corys a rainbow garra a red finned shark and a load of small tetras. Today I asked my dad to pick up three red cherry shrimps they were way small. about 7mm I put them in my tank but I thought they'd get eaten. I put two of them in a mesh box in the tank - they're safe. I can't find the third. have the fish eaten it? please reply!!!!!!!!!

Yes, yes they most likely have. All of your fish apart from maybe the plec and corys love to dine on cherry shrimp.

I agree with 3fingers... Cherry are quite small and are likely to be eaten by most of your fish.

Amano shrimp will probably be big enough to survive if they have somewhere to hide when they moult.
