what’s everyone’s experience with having sumo loaches and cherry shrimp together. Will the shrimp just end up being a nice meal for the loaches or will they be okay ?
 
I’ve never heard of a sumo loach but I think Kuhli loaches are usually fine with them.

It's one if the Schistura species. The one in the photo has been named as S. balteata and S. balteata II. Seriously Fish includes small crustaceans in the list of food they eat so I would not trust them with shrimps.
It also comes from fast flowing water and won't be compatible with fish which need slow moving water.
