Thats part of why my Angel fish found a new home. He would eat any shrimp I put in the tank within a few hours, once i had to pull a shrimp out of his jaws because he was starting to have a hard time breathing. I think I'm going to try the cherries. How many would you suggest I start with to make sure I can get them to reproduce in my tank? Will rams eat them? At one time I had cherries and amano shrimp, but that was 3 years ago and they are all gone now (back before I found all of you great people).
